Hello everyone
I want to buy some glasses (400ml) and print the logo of brewery on it, will give those glasses for serving my beer on different business, restaurant, bars etc
Whats the safest style to choose?
Thinking of something like those

I would just get 5 of each for starters. You’ll always need more pint glasses.
 
Classic pint glass is cheap, sturdy and useful for all beers. I personally prefer the third option you show because it's a little more classy.
You'd be well advised to get started with a company that can quickly supply a few hundred and then re-order as your supplies are depleted.
 
I vote for option 2
I have some of those and they make a pretty pour and if it's done right the foam fills the bulb then is squeezed above it to enhance the aroma

2nd choice is #3 it has a similar effect

#1 is to open at the top and let's the head drop out to quickly
 
I've bought all 3 and the strongest is #1, #2 is my favorite but the glass is thin on all I've bought and most have broke

@Mastoras007 is asking advice for a commercial, brewery-type glass for purposes of advertising and using in a bar/brewery environment. As much as the thinner, finer-shaped glasses are nice to drink out of and are what we prefer at home, the heavy-duty standard pint glass is by far the most common in that role.
Not only that but that basic style can be had from just about any supplier whereas the others are a little harder to source. I know that from experience because it took forever for me to find Willi Becher-style pub glasses like the 3rd option when I wanted to replace some that I really liked.
 
None of the craft breweries in my area that I frequent use shaker pints anymore. It's a terrible glass shape for enjoying beer

Glass breakage should be assumed. That's why you order in bulk.
 
I agree shaker pints may break less but I'm always disappointed when I'm served a beer in them. Not the best way to present your beer
I'd rather be served a beer in a nice glass without a logo. Get the shakers with the logo to sell if you want but don't really serve your beer in them. I've seen this done at a few breweries. I actually have a collection of brewery logo shaker pints I use as water tumblers
 
Option 3 would be more or less standard here and I like the glass as well.
But I think you should ask your target group (Greek beer drinkers) what they think and like.

Note that engraved glasses tend to disappear....
