Materials

If we are creating custom totes for you, we offer a wide range of stocked color materials. Choose from leather, felt, vinyl, Tyvek®, cork, mesh, nylon, performance poly and cotton canvas. Our canvas comes in seven different weights and we stock a wide range of colors in our most popular canvas. If you have a special color and we need to dye your fabric, we can even offer that option. We will match your design goals to the right materials to stay on budget.

Custom Details

Once the fabrics are selected we offer a range of customized details including trims and handles. Our handle choices include self-material handles, natural and synthetic webbing and even leather if you want to upgrade your totes.

We can finish with zippers, linings and interior pockets or dividers on your tote to add function to your bag design. There are no limits to how we can customize your totes because we are making them to order.

For logos we offer print, embroidery, leather patches as well as custom logo labels.

Print Methods

If your design includes many nuanced colors we recommend digital printing. For simpler printing, silkscreen is always a good choice. Inks for silkscreen include metallics and even foil printing.

We offer all over printing on all of our truly custom totes, so there are no image area limits.

What about Rush Stock Totes?

If you are looking for the fastest delivery, we keep a range of styles in stock in the US for silkscreen printing.  With our stocked tote bags we can print and ship most of styles in ten days. Stocked styles are great choices for promotions or event bags and come in a variety of colors, sizes and qualities. With stocked totes, we print silkscreen, embroider or transfer print in designated areas of the bags, because the bags are already sewn up. Call us to discuss decoration options on our stocked totes if speed is a priority.
