What is the Black Cotton Canvas Tote, 14 1/2" x 15 1/2"?
Catalogued as BAG112, this bag sits in the part of the range that gets re-ordered rather than tried once. It measures 14 1/2" x 15 1/2". This is the black colorway.
Canvas is the workhorse bag material: it takes weight, it takes abuse, and it looks better worn than new..
A bag is the largest imprint area in promotional products and it is seen by everyone the carrier walks past. Screen printing and embroidery both hold well on canvas. The two together are why this item re-orders.
This is where perceived value and order size stop fighting each other. You can buy enough to matter and still hand over something nobody quietly throws away. Concretely: $9.45 each at 1-11, $5.86 at 500+.

Decoration options
The decoration method is chosen to match the substrate, which is why the mark is permanent rather than printed on top of it. Standard imprint area on this item is 5 in x 5 in.
Screen Printing
Ink is pushed through a mesh stencil, one screen per color. Dense, opaque color that holds up to washing and handling.
Bags, apparel and high-volume runs.
Spot colors, typically up to 4.
Embroidery
The design is stitched directly into the fabric. A raised, textured, extremely durable mark.
Headwear, polos, bags and anything expected to be laundered.
Thread-matched to brand colors.
Heat Transfer
A printed transfer is applied under heat and pressure. Full-color decoration on fabrics and soft goods.
Small runs and complex multi-color artwork on textiles.
Full color.
Artwork requirements
- Vector artwork (.ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg) reproduces best at every size and is what we ask for first.
- Convert all type to outlines so fonts do not substitute in production.
- A digital proof comes back to you first, every time. Production starts on your written approval and not before.
- We send a digital proof for written approval before production starts. Nothing goes on a machine until you sign it off.
- A 300 dpi raster at the actual imprint dimensions will run cleanly. Anything pulled from a web page usually will not.
- If brand color accuracy matters, give us the Pantone numbers rather than a screenshot to match.

Common uses
Where this works best
The same item lands differently depending on who gets it and why. Here is how this one performs across the programs it sells into most.
Nonprofit & Fundraising
Every pound spent on a donor gift is a pound not spent on the mission, so the gift has to earn it. Recognition pieces for major donors and board members are the clearest win: they are relatively few, they are highly personal, and they materially affect renewal. For event merchandise, price the item to sell rather than to give. At $5.86 in volume the cost per kept item is hard to beat.
Healthcare & Senior Living
Healthcare buyers screen for practicality and hygiene before they screen for design. Shift work changes the specification. Items are carried between home, locker and ward, so anything that leaks, breaks or cannot go through a dishwasher gets abandoned within a fortnight regardless of how good it looked at the point of purchase. Roughly 38% comes off between one piece and a full run.
Franchise & Multi-Location Brands
The hard problem in multi-location branding is consistency, not creativity. Artwork drift is cumulative and invisible until it is severe. A locked file held centrally against each item number, rather than a logo emailed between locations, is what stops forty sites gradually producing forty logos. Minimum order is a single piece, which suits how this segment tends to buy. At $9.45 before breaks this is the tier most programmes should live in.
Trade Shows & Conferences
Booth traffic is not the metric: what leaves the hall and stays in use is. Run a two-tier giveaway: a low-cost item for everyone who stops, and a genuinely good piece reserved for qualified conversations. The second tier is what people remember when your follow-up email arrives a week later. A bag is the largest imprint area in promotional products and it is seen by everyone the carrier walks past. Good enough to be kept, affordable enough to order in real quantity.
Education, Schools & Universities
Education buys in waves: orientation, homecoming, graduation, staff appreciation. Departments buy separately even when the brand is shared, which is how a university ends up with nine versions of its own crest. A single approved item list with locked artwork solves more than any individual purchasing decision will. Screen printing and embroidery both hold well on canvas. This is the sweet spot: real perceived value without a procurement conversation.

| Shipping | Free ground freight above $250, and we can split a run across individual addresses |
What do buyers ask about BAG112?
Do you keep this item in stock?
Yes. The warehouse shows 280 of BAG112 in stock as of the last hourly sync. If a color is short we say so the day you order rather than the week before the deadline. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit.
How is this decorated?
Screen Printing is the primary method on BAG112. Ink is pushed through a mesh stencil, one screen per color. Dense, opaque color that holds up to washing and handling. We can also run Embroidery and Heat Transfer on this item if the artwork calls for it. The personalization area on BAG112 is 5 in x 5 in.
Can I mix colors or sizes to reach a quantity break?
Yes, provided the artwork stays the same across the run. Different artwork is fine as well: it gets its own proof, and setup stays free. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+. The published ladder on BAG112 runs from $9.45 a piece at 1-11 down to $5.86 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
Can I get a sample before committing?
Yes: order one piece. BAG112 sells from a single unit at $9.45, the first rung of its published ladder, so a sample is simply a normal order. A decorated single piece goes through the same proof as a full run.
What does it actually cost at quantity?
Most orders land near 48-95, which prices at $7.56 a piece. The published ladder on BAG112 runs from $9.45 a piece at 1-11 down to $5.86 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. Engraving is a separate line, shown per quantity in the cost table on this page, so the all-in figure is visible before checkout.
What artwork do you need from me?
Vector artwork is ideal (.ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg) with all type converted to outlines. High-resolution raster at 300 dpi or better also works, and a logo saved from a website is worth sending anyway. We check it against the 5 in x 5 in personalization area and tell you before you pay whether it holds up at that size.
How long does production take?
Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit. The clock starts when you approve the proof, not when you place the order. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing. A rush is quoted per job, with the date confirmed in writing before you pay.
What is the minimum order for BAG112?
BAG112 can be ordered from a single piece. The published ladder on BAG112 runs from $9.45 a piece at 1-11 down to $5.86 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. There is no setup fee at any quantity. The personalization area on BAG112 is 5 in x 5 in.
