It's In The Bag

Got to give it to companies who know where to advertise.  At one of our recent travels, we had to wait for our delayed flight and I noticed quite a few business travelers with their totes and briefcases - some of it were branded.  The nicer bags displayed corporate logos in a contrasting, attractive imprint - bringing the attention to the embroidered branding.  Some of the lesser expensive bags (I can tell) - featured imprints that were tone on tone.  I wondered.  Was the intention to gift a bag?  Or to advertise?  Or both?

A tote bag is not a place for the meek of advertising heart. 

With these bags and portfolios from a top supplier I met at our recent trade exhibit, we found some really attractive MADE IN THE USA products which we'd like to feature here.  Excellent for both branding and utilization.  A gift one would love to receive and definitely use!  Quality is top notch.  Obviously made with great care.

These are available from WEBBMAR by emailing sales(at)webbmar(dot)com.  We had previously featured one of their bags that we came across at SAAC (which we voted our favorite).  They've got a little bit of classic flair.  Lines are simple, stitching is clean and decoration top quality.   Love it.

LOGO IT!  (Available blank, minimum 1 unit)

Our Review: This is one of the most COMPLETE backpacks we've seen. It has storage for everything and there is padding (moisture-wicking mesh) in the back, which is perfect for hot days.  This is a great alternative to a standard computer bag for travelling.  There's a handle if you want to carry it or hold it, but the shoulder straps will free your hands to do other things (eat or drink on the go).  I particularly like the fact that it holds up to a 17" laptop.  Everything you need is easily accessible, including a pocket for your media. 

Particularly now, when some airlines are charging you a fee to check in a bag, this comes in really handy.  This will fit easily in the storage under your feet on a flight, and a roll-on luggage will complement it for a very easy in and out airport experience.
