What Are Custom Drawstring Bags?
Custom drawstring bags are lightweight top-loading bags with two cord drawstrings that double as shoulder straps, manufactured to a buyer's specification — material (210D polyester, nylon, or cotton), color, size, and logo method (screen print, reactive print, or embroidery). Our custom drawstring bags are produced for sports clubs, gym member kits, school field-trip bags, conference swag, and event giveaways. The drawstring sports bag format is the most common in the sports club, gym, and event channels.
Drawstring Bag Materials & Construction
Material is the primary specification on custom drawstring bag orders. We work with polyester, nylon, and cotton for different program positions.
Polyester, Nylon & Cotton Options
| Material | Weight | Feel | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| 210D polyester | 80-100 gsm | Lightweight, soft | Standard event, gym, school |
| 420D polyester | 130-150 gsm | Sturdy, semi-structured | Premium event, sports club |
| Nylon | 70-100 gsm | Smooth, water-resistant | Outdoor, gym, sports |
| Cotton | 4-6 oz | Natural, breathable | Eco-boutique, premium event |
| rPET | 80-100 gsm | Eco-friendly | Sustainability programs |
For custom drawstring bags in standard event and gym programs, 210D polyester is the most common. For premium sports club and member kits, 420D polyester is the upgraded choice. For outdoor and water-resistant programs, nylon is the high-performance option. For eco-boutique and premium event programs, cotton or rPET is the natural choice.
Drawstring Bag with Logo — Standard Closure
The standard drawstring closure is a single 5 mm polyester cord running through a top hem channel, with the two ends knotted and used as shoulder straps. For custom drawstring bags, we offer three closure upgrades:
- Standard polyester cord — included in price; available in black, white, or custom color
- Cotton cord — for natural and eco programs; upcharge for cotton
- Nylon cord with toggle — for premium outdoor and gym programs; upcharge for toggle
For custom drawstring bags in standard event programs, polyester cord is the default. For cotton drawstring bags in eco-boutique programs, cotton cord matches the material. For premium gym and outdoor programs, nylon cord with toggle is the high-end spec.
Drawstring Bag Sizes & Capacity
Standard Sizes (13×17" / 14×18")
| Size | Capacity | Use | Per-piece weight (210D) |

Custom Logo & Print Methods
Logo application is the primary specification on custom drawstring bag orders. We support three logo methods.
Screen Print vs Reactive Print vs Embroidery

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Screen print | High | 2-3 mm line | $ | Standard event, sports club, gym |
| Reactive print | Medium | 1-2 mm line | $ | Full-surface art, photo, gradient |
| Embroidery | Highest (wash-resistant) | 3-4 mm line | $$ | Premium sports club, member kit |
For custom drawstring bags in standard event and gym programs, screen print is the most common spec. For promotional drawstring bags with full-surface art, reactive print is the standard. For premium custom drawstring bags in sports club member kits, embroidery is the long-life option. Free design mockup is included on every inquiry.
