Drawstring Bags in Dubai: The Cord Does Two Jobs

In every other bag the handle and the closure are separate. In a drawstring bag one cord closes the top and becomes the shoulder straps, and that double duty is what makes it cheap, simple and the standard choice for sports and schools. Drawstring bags in Dubai go to events, gyms and clubs.

How it's made

From your file to the finished job.

Six steps happen between the brief and the finished job. Here they are, in the order they happen on our floor in Dubai South.

01 / 06

The Cord Runs Through a Channel

A folded hem at the top forms a tunnel and the cord threads through it and out at the bottom corners. Pulling the cord gathers the top closed and tensions the straps at the same time.

02 / 06

The Bottom Corners Take All the Strain

Everything the bag weighs pulls on the two points where the cord exits. Reinforced corners, an eyelet or a stitched patch at each one is what stops the cord tearing straight out of the fabric. This is the detail cheap bags skip.

03 / 06

It Is Carried on the Back

The cord sits on both shoulders, so the printed face is on somebody's back and gets seen by whoever is behind them. That changes the artwork brief: one bold mark, centred, sized to be read across a sports hall.

04 / 06

Material Sets the Use

Polyester is light, water resistant and dries fast, which suits sport. Cotton drill feels better and absorbs water. Non woven is the cheapest and the least durable of the three.

05 / 06

There Is No Structure to It

A drawstring bag has no base and no stiffening, so it takes the shape of whatever is inside. Good for kit and shoes, poor for anything that needs to stay flat such as documents or a laptop.

06 / 06

Loaded and Worn on a Sample

We fill a sample, put it on and walk with it, because the comfort of the cord is the thing that decides whether these get used.

Where the cord gives out is at the shoulder. A thin round cord digs in under weight and becomes genuinely uncomfortable, and people stop using the bag. A wider flat cord or a thicker braid costs very little more and is the difference between a bag that gets carried and one that does not.

Compare with custom tote bags, sports jerseys, and bags for events.
