What materials are your custom drawstring bags made from?

Our drawstring bags are available in non-woven polypropylene, nylon, and nylon-polyester blend. Non-woven cinch sacks are the most affordable option for high-volume giveaways. Nylon styles offer greater durability, water resistance, and a more premium look suited for athletic programs, corporate events, and retail applications.

What is the difference between a drawstring bag and a cinch backpack?

The terms are often used interchangeably. Both use dual drawstring cords that double as shoulder straps for hands-free carry. Cinch backpacks typically refer to the classic lightweight sportpack format, while drawstring bags can also include sling bags, yoga mat carriers, and boutique retail styles with drawstring closures.

Are drawstring bags good for trade shows and events?

Yes. Drawstring cinch backpacks are one of the most popular trade show giveaway formats because they are lightweight, easy to distribute, and used repeatedly after the event — generating ongoing brand impressions. Our non-woven Cinch Up Drawstring Backpack is our best-selling style for high-volume trade show and event distribution.

Can drawstring bags be printed with a full-color logo?

Most drawstring bags in this collection are screen printed in one to four spot colors, which is included in the base quote. A free digital proof is provided for approval before production begins. Contact us to ask about full-color printing availability on specific styles.

Who typically orders custom drawstring bags in bulk?

Custom drawstring bags are popular with schools, universities, gyms, fitness studios, yoga studios, sports teams, trade show exhibitors, corporate wellness programs, and retail brands. They are widely used as event giveaways, race and tournament swag, employee onboarding kits, and branded retail merchandise.

How to Choose the Right Drawstring Bag

Drawstring bags win on expo floors, gym floors, and college campuses because of one advantage: hands-free carry. Match the style and material to your audience and use case.

▶ Classic cinch backpacks: The Cinch Up Drawstring Backpack in 210D polyester is our best-selling drawstring bag — lightweight, available in a wide range of colors, and priced for high-volume distribution. Clean screen-printed logos pop against the bright background. This is the standard for trade show registration bags, school giveaways, and any event where volume and value matter most.

▶ Feature-forward sling bags: The Zippered Sling Bag adds a front zipper pocket for valuables, metal grommets at stress points for durability, and reinforced corners — a step up for audiences who expect more than a basic cinch sack. The 9″ x 6″ front imprint area delivers strong logo visibility. Well-suited for corporate events, college campus programs, and premium trade show distribution.

▶ Athletic and tech-ready styles: The Peek Drawstring Sportspack includes an earbud port built into the design — connecting a phone in a front pocket to earbuds without tangled cables. Purpose-built for gyms, athletic programs, health and fitness brands, and any audience that lives in earbuds. The mesh ventilation panels add breathability for active use.

▶ Boutique and retail formats: The Boutique/Retail Bag with Drawstring is a compact, retail-ready format that tightens to secure contents — ideal as a branded gift bag, loyalty reward, or retail merchandise item. The refined look suits boutique brands, spas, salons, and upscale retail environments where the standard cinch sack would feel out of place.

Why Drawstring Bags Work for Branding

The hands-free advantage of a drawstring backpack means it gets worn, not just carried — and a bag on someone's back is visible at a distance in ways that a handled tote simply isn't.

Maximum visibility: A drawstring bag worn on the back puts your logo at eye level for everyone walking behind the wearer — on the expo floor, on campus, at the gym, on public transit. That 360-degree visibility is difficult to replicate with any other bag format.

Preferred by active audiences: Students, athletes, event attendees, and anyone with their hands full consistently reach for drawstring bags over totes. If your audience skews younger, more active, or attends events where both hands are needed, a drawstring is the right format.

Trade show carry advantage: At conventions and trade shows, drawstring bags are the format that gets worn all day rather than set down at a booth. An attendee who puts on your drawstring at registration carries your logo through every interaction for the rest of the event — and takes it home.
