What Are Custom Canvas Bags?
Custom canvas bags are heavy-duty bags manufactured from 12 oz to 18 oz woven cotton canvas, in tote, shopper, or zippered configurations, manufactured to a buyer specification - canvas weight, color, size, hardware (zipper, snap, button), and logo method (embroidery, screen print, reactive print, or jacquard). Our custom canvas bags are produced for retail chains, fashion retailers, conference organizers, and Australian retail imports with annual replenishment programs.

For designer retail and gift programs, 18 oz canvas is the high-end spec. For eco-retail and sustainability programs, organic canvas is the procurement-grade option.
