How to Choose Backpacks & Drawstrings
- Choose drawstring bags for budget-friendly, high-volume giveaways at races, camps, schools, and trade shows.
- Choose backpacks for higher perceived value, employee gifts, travel programs, laptop use, and long-term daily carrying.
- Match the material to the use: non-woven for short-term events, polyester for everyday promotions, and heavier fabrics for premium programs.
- Look for padded or adjustable straps when comfort matters, especially for students, employees, commuters, and all-day event attendees.
- Select pockets, bottle holders, laptop sleeves, or zippered compartments when recipients need organization and daily utility.
- Use large front imprint areas for maximum logo visibility; smaller placement options can create a more retail-inspired look.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can backpacks and drawstring bags be customized with my logo?
Yes. Many backpacks and drawstring bags can be decorated with your logo, event name, school mascot, team mark, or promotional message. Common branding methods include screen printing, heat transfer, embroidery, and full-color imprint options, depending on the bag material and style.
What is the difference between a backpack and a drawstring bag for promotions?
Drawstring bags are lightweight, cost-effective, and ideal for high-quantity giveaways. Backpacks usually offer more structure, storage, comfort, and perceived value, making them a better fit for employee gifts, school programs, travel, and premium branded merchandise.
Can I see a proof before my order is produced?
Yes. A virtual proof is typically provided so you can review logo placement, imprint size, colors, and spelling before production begins. This helps ensure your branded backpacks or drawstring bags match your campaign requirements.
Are samples available before placing a bulk order?
Samples may be available for many styles. Samples are helpful when comparing fabric weight, storage capacity, strap comfort, zipper quality, and overall appearance before committing to a larger promotional order.
How do I choose a drawstring backpack that is comfortable for long periods?
For longer wear, look for lightweight construction, reinforced corners, wider cords when available, and a size that will not be overloaded. Wear the bag high on the back with both straps adjusted evenly to distribute weight more comfortably.
What types of organizations buy custom backpacks and drawstring bags?
Popular buyers include schools, universities, sports teams, camps, nonprofits, corporate HR teams, trade show planners, healthcare organizations, fitness events, and companies building employee or customer appreciation programs.
