Questions about Custom Drawstring Bags?

FAQ

Everything you need to know about styles, decoration, and delivery.

What is the most durable fabric for drawstring bags?

Our 10oz cotton canvas and heavyweight 210D+ nylon are the most durable options. Canvas offers a rugged, retail-ready feel, while nylon is water-resistant and ideal for athletic and outdoor use.

Can you print a design across the entire front of the bag?

Yes. Because we print on drawstring bags while they are flat, we can accommodate large-scale designs that fill the majority of the front face. Exact dimensions vary by bag style and size.

What are "Durocord™" drawstrings?

Durocord™ is a brand of high-performance, thick drawstrings used on select Liberty Bags styles. They are designed to be more comfortable on the shoulders and far more durable than standard thin cords.

Are custom drawstring bags suitable for heavy items like books?

For heavier items, we recommend our 10oz cotton canvas or heavyweight nylon styles with reinforced corners and metal grommets. These are specifically built to handle the weight of daily gear, books, and laptops.

Do you offer eco-friendly drawstring bag options?

Yes. We offer 100% organic cotton canvas bags and recycled non-woven polypropylene options. We also use eco-friendly water-based inks for our DTG and screen printing methods.

How quickly can I get my custom cinch bags for an event?

Standard production time is 10-14 business days after proof approval. If you're on a tight deadline for a trade show or event, please mention your date so we can prioritize your order with our rush production services.
