Comic-Con Custom Totes

One of our customers asked us to come up with a concept for Comicon 2013. They were looking for 135,000 bags with an element of whimsy and surprise. The end user was looking for an oversized backpack with a cape packaged inside. It was our task to come up with a bag that was large and substantial enough to hold 30 lbs. of memorabilia, posters, and trade show giveaways. We produced 13 different full color designs for one side of the bags with matching satin capes that were inserted inside with the Comicon 2013 logo design on the opposite side of the bag. The side gussets were also customized with 2 specific designs. The bags were constructed of heavy 150gsm polypropylene and the adjustable webbing straps had the WB logo step and repeat. The capes were available in 2 different colors and were folded, rolled, and inserted into the bag where they were held firmly by a non-woven strap with 2 metallic snaps. This cape could be worn either around the neck with a Velcro closure or snapped directly onto the backpack. Each element of this bag was meticulously scrutinized and amended to the client's as well as the end user's specifications. We started working on the project at the end of February and delivered all 135,000 of them by the end of June. This order was delivered on time and the bags were such a big hit that Comicon attendees were trading amongst each other on the convention floor and immediately they were became a collector's premium on eBay. The end user was thrilled with the bags and the great reception they received. We have continued to work on this project for over 9 years.
