Custom Shure SM7B PU Foam Logo Cover

The custom cover for the world's most-photographed podcast mic

The Shure SM7B is the broadcast mic that built modern podcasting — Joe Rogan, the Daily, every serious VO studio in London. It's also one of the most photographed pieces of audio kit in the world. Every Spotify cover, every YouTube thumbnail, every studio BTS reel shows it. Which means a branded foam cover on an SM7B is one of the highest-leverage £24.95 you can spend on your brand — every recording session becomes a permanent ad for your show, your studio, or your name.

This cover is a custom, full-colour, double-sided print on premium PU foam, cut and shaped specifically to the SM7B's distinctive cylindrical windscreen. It slips on over the OEM grille in seconds, looks like it shipped with the mic, and crucially — your artwork shows in every camera angle, both close-ups and wide shots.

Why brand the SM7B specifically?

Three reasons SM7B owners order custom covers more than any other mic:

• Visibility. The SM7B's wide, flat windscreen is essentially a billboard. Compared to a Blue Yeti or USB condenser, you have roughly 3× the printable surface area facing the camera at any moment.
• Audience cred. Your audience recognises the SM7B. Pairing it with your brand visually tells them "this is a serious setup" before you've even said a word.
• Reusability. The SM7B lasts 15+ years. A custom foam outlasts most other studio purchases. One £24.95 cover spans hundreds of sessions and thousands of viewer-hours.

Built to match OEM acoustic standards

We make these covers from premium PU foam matched to OEM windscreen density. That matters because cheap aftermarket foams add muddy low-mid colouration, kill the SM7B's plosive rejection, or stiffen up after a few months. Ours don't. Acoustic transparency is preserved end-to-end — the SM7B sounds exactly like an SM7B, just now with your logo on it. The print is applied to the outer surface only; the acoustic path through the foam is unchanged.

What you can put on it

Anything — full-colour, edge-to-edge, double-sided. Show logos, podcast names, your handle, sponsor lockups, episode hashtags, even photographs. The print is fade-resistant and won't crack with normal use. Most clients send their logo as a vector (AI or SVG), but high-res PNG works fine. We always proof the layout to you in 24 hours before printing — nothing goes to production until you approve it.

Who orders these

The honest list, in rough order of volume:

• Podcasters — solo and panel shows where the mic appears on YouTube/Spotify Video thumbnails
• Twitch and YouTube streamers — the SM7B has become a status mic on creator streams, custom branding doubles down
• Voice-over studios — particularly Soho post-production rooms running ADR + commercial sessions
• In-house podcast networks — brands like media companies and agencies running their own SM7B booth setups
• Radio stations — UK community + commercial radio increasingly use SM7Bs for filmed content
• Sponsored shows — sponsor logos on the foam = sponsor name in every episode thumbnail, contractually visible

Durability and care

These covers are made for daily studio use. They survive being knocked, dropped, stored in mic bags, swapped between mics, and the general abuse of a working studio. Spot-clean with a damp cloth if needed; avoid soaking. Most clients tell us their cover still looks new 2-3 years in. If yours ever needs replacing (snagged, faded, or you've rebranded), reorder costs the same as the first one — no setup fee for a repeat print.

Ordering and turnaround

Standard production is 2-3 working days from artwork approval. We post free anywhere in the UK with Royal Mail Tracked. London customers can collect same-day from our Spelman Street workshop if ordered before 11am. Bulk orders (10+) get 10-20% off automatically; for studio kit-outs or multi-mic studio bundles, message us via WhatsApp for a custom quote.

Will it fit my SM7B?

Yes — this cover is cut to the exact SM7B windscreen profile. It fits both the original SM7B and the SM7dB variant (same physical housing). It will not fit the smaller SM58 or MV7 — we have separate listings for those.

Will it muffle the sound?

No. The foam density matches Shure's OEM windscreen. Acoustic transparency, plosive rejection, and frequency response are all preserved. If anything, the additional outer layer gives slightly better plosive control on hard P's and B's.

Can I have a different design on each side?

Yes — many clients put their podcast name on the front and a sponsor logo on the back, or two podcast network logos on opposite sides. £0 extra for asymmetric artwork.

How long does the print last?

Indefinitely under normal use. The print is sublimated into the foam fibres, not surface-printed — it doesn't peel, crack, or fade in normal studio conditions. UV exposure (e.g. a cover left in a sunny window for months) is the only thing that gradually dulls the colour.
