Custom Tote Bags with Your Logo
Wholesale promotional totes in cotton, canvas, non-woven, jute, insulated and clear stadium styles. Free digital proof on every order.
A tote bag is the rare promotional product people actually keep. It gets carried to the grocery store, the beach, the office and the gym, and every one of those trips is a free impression for whoever printed their logo on it. That is why a tote earns more exposure per dollar than almost anything else you can put a logo on.
BrandedTotes is the tote bag arm of BrandedItems, Inc., an ASI and SAGE member distributor with twenty-five years in promotional products. We carry more than a thousand tote styles across every material and price point, from economy non-woven handouts at scale to premium insulated coolers and laptop totes. Every order gets a free digital mockup before production, and nothing goes to press until you approve it.

Why buy your totes from us
Twenty-five years and real supplier access. BrandedTotes is part of BrandedItems, Inc., based in Tustin, California. We are an ASI member (#190888), a SAGE member (#3432) and part of Facilisgroup, which means access to the full supplier network rather than one catalog. If you have seen a bag somewhere we do not list, send us the details and we will source and quote it.
A free digital proof on every order, without exception. Not a stock photo with your logo pasted on, but a mockup at the actual imprint size on the actual product. You approve it before anything is printed.
Straight answers about what a bag will not do. We would rather tell you that a promotional cooler holds temperature for a few hours and not overnight, that die-cut handles tear under load, and that a two-bottle carrier without a divider chips glass, than sell you the wrong bag and hear about it afterwards. It costs us the occasional upsell and it saves you a reorder.
People, not a checkout funnel. Complicated orders, tight deadlines, multi-site shipping and artwork that needs work all get handled by a person who knows your account.
How to choose a promotional tote
Start with how long the bag has to live
This decides everything else. A bag handed out once at a registration desk and thrown away that evening should be an economy non-woven tote, and paying more for it is waste. A bag meant to be carried for years should be cotton canvas or a structured polyester style, and buying the cheap one instead means your logo goes in the trash after two uses. Most disappointing tote orders come from buying a single-event bag for a long-term job.
Then pick the material
Cotton and canvas read as natural and take a large screen print cleanly. Non-woven polypropylene is the price leader and the only realistic choice above a few thousand units. Polyester resists water and does not shrink. Jute has the most texture and the weakest print detail. Paper is for presentation, not for weight. Each category page explains the trade-offs for that material in detail.
Check the gusset, not the width
A flat tote holds paper. A gusseted tote holds groceries. The gusset is the side and bottom panel that gives the bag its box shape, and it is the spec that decides what actually fits. Under 4″ is a flat handout; 7″ to 10″ takes a full grocery shop. A wide bag with a shallow gusset is a wide flat bag that will sag.
Decide whether it has to close
An open tote is a carrying bag. A zip turns it into something you can set down, sling over a shoulder or put in an overhead locker. For laptops, documents and anything valuable, the closure is the feature. Drawstring and hook-and-loop are cheaper and never jam, but neither seals.
Match the decoration to the artwork, not the other way round
Screen printing charges per color and is cheapest at volume, but it cannot do gradients or photographs. Full-color printing has no per-color charge, so somewhere around three or four colors it becomes the cheaper option as well as the better one. Embroidery is the premium finish on canvas and business totes, and a poor idea on thin cotton or on an insulated bag where the needle can reach the liner. Send us the artwork and we will tell you which way the math falls.
Real talk from our real customers
Devoted clients in our industry aren’t just repeat customers or casual referrals; they advocate passionately, urging their friends to engage in business with us.
Every member was totally floored with the finish product. All of the employees (150 employees) located on the 2nd floor are extremely jealous and yes, we are 100% satisfied with the finished product
I called other companies just to see what other options I had – and Baila’s concise follow up ultimately made the decision easy, and I’m happy I made it. I know I put your team in a time crunch, and I’m glad that you came through
What our customers use these for
Trade shows and conferences. Registration totes, sponsor bags and booth giveaways, usually non-woven or lightweight cotton, in quantities that make freight a line item worth planning. See Convention & Trade Show Totes.
Employee onboarding and recognition. Welcome kits for new hires, service awards and top-performer gifts, where the bag is meant to be kept and carried. Usually canvas, laptop totes or a premium insulated cooler.
Schools, teachers and universities. Staff appreciation, orientation bags, booster clubs and athletic programs. Clear stadium totes for game days where the venue has a bag policy.
Retail and grocery. Reusable bag programs, checkout totes and loyalty gifts, where the bag has to survive weekly use or the sustainability message falls apart. See Grocery & Shopping Totes.
Nonprofits and fundraising. Walk and run events, donor gifts and awareness campaigns, usually at high quantity and a tight per-unit budget.
Weddings, hotels and hospitality. Welcome bags, amenity kits and guest gifts, where presentation matters more than capacity. Eurototes and small cotton totes.
Wineries, breweries and food service. Bottle carriers, growler bags and insulated totes for tasting rooms, clubs and delivery. See Wine & Bottle Totes.

How ordering works
1. Request a quote. Every product page has a Request a Quote button. Tell us the quantity, the imprint colors and the date you need the bags in hand. If you are choosing between two styles, ask for both and we will price them side by side.
2. Send artwork. Vector files reproduce best: AI, EPS, SVG, or a PDF with live type. A logo pulled off a website will not enlarge cleanly to a 10″ print panel, and at that scale every artifact shows. If vector is all you have somewhere in an old folder, send what you have and we will tell you whether it will hold.
3. Approve a free digital proof. We send a mockup showing your logo on the actual bag, at the actual imprint size. Nothing goes to production until you sign off. This is where most problems get caught, particularly imprint area, which is always smaller than the bag dimensions suggest.
4. Production. Most stock styles decorate in about five to seven working days after proof approval, and many items offer rush service in one to three days. Overseas direct production runs considerably longer and drops the unit cost significantly at quantities in the thousands.
5. Delivery. We ship anywhere in the US. If the bags are going to a convention center rather than your office, tell us at quote stage: venue drayage and material handling are billed by weight and routinely surprise people who have not shipped to a show before.
Work backwards from your date, not forwards from today. Event dates do not move, and proof approval is the step that slips. If you have a hard deadline, build in a few days of margin and tell us what it is.
