Whether its kids at camp, teens on the athletic fields, or folks out for a day in the park, the drawstring bag is versatile and appeals to everyone.

So why not make it a custom drawstring backpack with your company logo on it?  With a simple drawstring cinch closure, this is the ideal bag for outings, concerts, football games, trips to the farmers market or beach, for example. The string straps are easy on the shoulders and much more comfortable than a shoulder bag. You don’t have to worry about longevity of use because these bags are easily hand-washable and dry quickly.

Your large company logo will get plenty of leisurely mileage!

A drawstring bag style is so popular that you will even notice brand name retailers selling their own version of this backpack in retail stores around the country. They are widely used by student and make a great booster club fundraising product. With an ever-increasing push towards reusable bags, consider giving a custom drawstring backpack to your customers or clients as a “swag bag” stuffed with other promotional goodies like a water bottle, pedometer, pen, or any handy items that can be customized with your logo. Your customers will be impressed with your presentation and thoughtfulness. Drawstring backpacks come in a variety of materials for every promotion and budget. For a trade show or event give-away look at a polypropylene non-woven bag. For a bag that looks a little more sleek check out at a polyester or nylon material bag.  All of these materials are hand washable for long-term use.

What better argument for the widespread use of custom reusable tote bags than the real concern over non bio-degradable plastic bags? The state of California and other state municipalities are very seriously considering a vote to ban all plastic bags from stores and market places in the next few years.  As one environmentalist aptly put it “there is no reason that a product we use for a few minutes should float in our oceans for a few hundred years!” If an all-out ban is not the answer, leveling a bag ban fee is another idea on the table.

With the tide of public opinion massing towards environment over convenience, the promotional use of reusable non woven, jute and canvas bags are a marketing bonanza! Any trade show, seminar or marketing event is an opportunity to distribute custom reusable tote bags with your logo and message attractively displayed.

The trend towards plastic bag bans is not limited to the US. China enacted a ban in 2008 that has saved the country 1.6 million barrels of oil and reduced plastic bag usage by 66%!

Reusable bags are so much sturdier than the everyday thin plastic bag and can hold a lot more grocery items at one time. I don’t know about you, but less trips back and forth to the car to carry a grocery bag is a big improvement for many shoppers.

How often do you get the chance to promote your business and at the same time make a positive statement about the importance of protecting the planet? When you hand out or sell custom reusable tote bags at your store you are sending a strong message.

Maybe a lot of consumers will at first balk at the idea of giving up their garbage can lining thin plastic bags. Just like seat belts in cars, warnings on cigarette packs and other public health laws, the diminished use of plastic bags will eventually ‘catch on.’ Be a trend setter and consider a reusable customized bag for your next promotion and jump on the clean earth bandwagon!

Custom printed canvas tote bags can be used for a special promotion or holiday gift. A boat bag is made of thick, premium canvas material with stylish accents for a fashionable finished look. Picture your clients on a beach vacation toting their boat bag up and down the boardwalk with your company’s logo in clear view! These bags are generally unisex and can be utilized by anybody. Famous retailers sell boat bags and they are popularly gifted for special occasions and holidays. You can purchase your canvas tote bags wholesale and save a lot money by doing so.

A lot of businesses are trying to saving money by cutting back on their marketing budget. Non-woven tote bags have replaced custom printed canvas tote bags, but non-woven bags just don’t have the same impressive effect on the recipient. When choosing a promotional tote bag you need to ask yourself if this bag is likely to end up in the waste bin? At the end of the day don’t forget that the goal of customizing a promotional product is the longevity and exposure of your logo! So whether you are looking for a trade show tote bag, and eco-friendly tote or a high-end boat bag, promotional canvas totes are a win-win pick for your company and your customer.
