Description

Built for Everyday Carry

This upright tote is crafted from 600D 100% polyester canvas, a fabric chosen for its strength and ability to hold its shape. The binding at the edge adds structure, helping the bag stand upright for easy packing and access. Webbing carry handles provide a comfortable grip, while the side slip pocket offers quick storage for items you need within reach.

Customization Options

Make it yours with embroidery or heat transfer decoration. Embroidery adds a raised, textured mark with the soft sheen of real stitching, ideal for bold logos. Heat transfer reproduces photographic or multi-color artwork as a smooth, thin film, perfect for detailed designs. Both methods are applied directly to the fabric, ensuring your brand is seen.

Practical Dimensions

Measuring 15 inches high, 13 inches wide, and 5 inches deep, this tote offers approximately 975 cubic inches of space—enough for daily essentials, groceries, or trade show materials. Its upright design makes it easy to organize and retrieve items, and the durable construction is built to last.

Decoration & Imprint

2 methods

Your logo is placed on the front face of the tote, where it is visible during use. Embroidery stitches your design directly into the fabric, creating a raised, textured mark. Heat Transfer — Four Color / 4CP applies a smooth, thin film for photographic or multi-color artwork. For bold, solid logos, embroidery is recommended; for detailed or gradient artwork, heat transfer is the better choice.

Embroideryone-time setup $35.00 · Full color

Embroidery stitches your design directly into the fabric, building artwork from dense, interlocking threads rather than laying ink on the surface. Each color is its own thread in a solid shade. The result is a raised, tactile mark with the soft sheen of thread and a slightly dimensional edge. Each shape reads as a clean, saturated block, and the sewn-in design resists fading, peeling, and wear through repeated washing.

Heat Transfer — Four Color / 4CPFull-color imprint · 1 location included · one-time setup $30.00

Four-color-process heat transfer prints your design in CMYK onto a release film, then bonds it to the garment under heat and pressure. It reproduces photographs, gradients, and many-color artwork with continuous-tone fidelity that solid spot inks cannot match. The finished mark reads as a smooth, low-profile layer at the surface; color is built from blended process inks, landing close to brand references rather than as exact spot solids.

From our decoration and product guides

What does an embroidered logo look like?
Embroidery stitches the design directly into the fabric, building the artwork from dense, interlocking threads rather than laying ink on the surface. Each color is its own thread in a solid shade. The result is a raised, tactile mark with the soft sheen of thread and a slightly dimensional edge, and the sewn-in design resists fading, peeling and wear through repeated washing. More about Embroidery →
What artwork is a poor fit for embroidery?
Hairline strokes, very small type and continuous-tone gradients. Each stitch occupies real space in the fabric, so fine lines and small text round off and shading cannot be reproduced. Embroidery is at its best with logos and lettering built from bold, solid shapes, where each color stitches as its own thread shade. For photographic or gradient artwork choose a full-color method; for crisp hairline detail choose screen print. More about Embroidery →
How are embroidery thread colors matched to my brand colors?
Each color in the design is stitched in a solid thread shade chosen to match your artwork. Where a product offers it, Pantone (PMS) color matching is an option for an additional charge per color, selecting the thread closest to your Pantone reference; otherwise the embroiderer picks the nearest standard thread color.
