Design Custom Bags — From Everyday Totes to Premium Brand Packs

Custom bags are among the most practical and longest-lasting promotional items you can order. A bag travels everywhere its owner goes, carrying your brand into new environments every single day. Custom Ink's full bag catalog covers everything from budget-friendly canvas totes to premium Herschel backpacks.


Something for Every Budget & Audience: Tote bags, drawstring bags, backpacks, duffel bags, pouches, lunch bags, and more — from no-frills promotional basics to premium brands worth keeping for years.

Premium Brands That Carry Their Weight: Herschel, Nike, The North Face, OGIO, and Cotopaxi for corporate gifts, executive programs, and occasions where the bag itself is part of the statement.

Functional Branding That Lasts: Unlike a flyer or a sticker, a bag is used daily for years. That's thousands of impressions per item, each one reinforcing your logo in real-world environments.

Large Print Surfaces: Most bags offer significant print areas — front panels, side panels, and flaps all work well for bold logo placement.

Embroidery, Print & More: Decoration options include embroidery, screen printing, and heat transfer depending on the bag material and style.

Free Shipping on Every Order: Standard delivery ships free and arrives in about two weeks.

For premium custom bags, we carry Herschel Supply Co., Nike, The North Face, OGIO, and Cotopaxi. These brands have built-in value that makes them outstanding for corporate gifts, employee recognition programs, and client gifting. Budget-friendly basics are also available for high-volume trade show giveaways and event swag.


What's the difference between a tote bag, a drawstring bag, and a backpack?

Tote bags have open tops and are carried by handles — great for shopping, events, and everyday carry. Drawstring bags have a cinch closure and can be worn as a lightweight backpack — popular for gyms, camps, and casual use. Backpacks have structured compartments and shoulder straps — best for school, travel, and professional use. All three are available in Custom Ink's catalog.


Can I order custom bags in bulk for a trade show or large event?

Yes. Custom bags are especially popular for trade shows and large events. Tote bags and drawstring bags are the most cost-effective options for high-volume giveaways. Backpacks work well for tiered gift programs or VIP attendee kits. Pricing scales with quantity — the more you order, the lower your per-bag cost.
