Personalized Duffle Bag
From LoveToKnow Handbags
Personalized duffle bags allow you to track your bags while looking incredibly stylish in the process.
Unique Style
Duffle bags are ubiquitous, but why not? These bags are great during travel because they tend to be fairly sturdy and roomy; using a duffle bag, even a rolling duffle bag, can help to limit the number of bags one has to carry while traveling. There's more, though. Few bags can go as many places as these bags can. From the gym to traveling to packing up for college, these bags take up a minimal amount of space, but still manage to transport a significant amount of items.
Get Personal
Since these bags are truly everywhere, opting for a personalized look can be desirable. In truth, most of these bags come in a set range of colors (although it is possible to find some that are fairly unique).
As such, and particularly when stored in a place where duffle bags are common, it can get pretty difficult to tell your bag apart from another's. This is where the personalization of the bag can really come in handy. Whether you opt for a bag that sports your name, or your favorite sports team, the personalized look helps to ensure that you won't accidentally pick up someone else’s bag.
Shopping for Personalized Duffle Bags
The great news is that personalized duffle bags are growing in popularity, and that means that it's become easier to find, and purchase them. Consider some of the following online shopping sites:
L.L. Bean
L.L.Bean has long been a college store staple, and their available duffle bags are no exception. What sets these bags apart from the rest are the fact that they are coated in a water-resistant fabric and feature a sturdy, reinforced bottom.
Another advantage of this bag is the fact that it comes in so many different colors. From hot, fire- engine red, to royal purple, it's all here. There’s also a delightful Hawaiian pattern available in Pink Aloha, Orange Juice Aloha, and Cobalt Aloha that’s perfect for travel.
Pricing here is based on size, so you can expect the price to range from $29.50, all the way up to $59.01 (extra large), and the monogram feature allows you to choose from several different writing styles. Note that the monogram cannot be longer than ten letters and costs an extra $6.00 (and extra shipping time) once applied.
Art Promos.com
At Art.Promos.com the amount of colors you can choose from are limited to black with green, light blue, and red and yellow, but the monogram can be longer than ten letters. Two versions of the monogram look are available; one is a screen imprint, while the other is embroidered.
Wal-Mart
In their Wedding section, Wal-Mart also offers personalized duffle bags. Prices here range from $19.97 to $21.96, and the colors are limited to pink, blue and khaki. The lettering comes in two forms, either "block" or script and the character limit is ten. Even so, this can be a wonderfully unique and inexpensive gift for a loved one.
Bags-Purses-Totes
One of the more interesting bags on this site is the Exploration Duffle Bag because personalization here is free. Even though this bag offers a zippered front compartment, a back pocket and a removable, black nylon shoulder strap, the color options are limited to black and orange or black and grey. However, with an overall price of just $31.95, this personalized look may be well worth it.
Putting It All Together
When it comes to personalized duffle bags, it's good to know that you have several options, and that holding costs down shouldn't be an issue. However, remember that since this is a bag that may be seen by many, it's worth choosing a style that reelects your personality. Also keep in mind that these bags tend to be fairly sturdy, so the odds are good that'll you'll be using them for quite some time; even more reason to weight your options carefully.
