I can’t say enough about how the bags turned out. The design software was easy to use and the design came out even better than expected. Will be using vistaprint for all my future swag needs!

Frequently asked questions

Our custom paper bags follow the width, depth, and height (WxDxH) measurement and come in two sizes:
__Small __
Size: 7.5" x 3.1" x 8.3"
Handle Height: 3.5"
Paper Thickness: 0.47"
Medium
Size: 9.4" x 4.3" x 12.2"
Handle Height: 3.5"
Paper Thickness: 0.5"

The heights listed in the options section are the measurement of the big compartment, without handles. The handles on both bag sizes are 3.5".

We recommend the weight not exceed 16 pounds.

Our custom kraft bags can be recycled but they are not made from recycled materials.

When designing your kraft bags, you will be able to upload anything you would like, but it is not possible to print white ink. We recommend you use a logo, image or design with at least 300 DPI to get the best quality print. As a tip, single-color designs that cover the entire print area may result in slight blemishes. Also, darker colors look sharper on both paper options. Avoid light colors on brown kraft.

Our kraft paper bags are 0.47" thick for our smaller size (7.5" x 3.1" x 8.3") and 0.5" thick for our larger size (9.4" x 4.3" x 12.2").

We offer 3, 5 and 8-day shipping.
