Source for USB stick with hardware write-protect?

Can anybody suggest a source for a vendor of USB memory sticks with actual *hardware* write-protect? I have an ancient (USB1) 32MB "thumb drive" with a switch on the side which reliably write protects the flash. Unlike the SD card "write notch" which is implemented in the driver, this switch 100% disables writing to the drive. I've had this for a decade, and it's starting to show bad sectors and the USB contacts are wearing out. Can anybody suggest a flash drive, currently available at retail or wholesale, which you have had good experience with and can verify comes with a hardware write protect? Form factor, capacity, price and speed are not critical. If you can point me at a vendor offering custom printing (branding) who will take an order of 50 or 100 units, I will make sure to throw a free drive in your direction, preloaded with 'interesting' contents.
