Chino Deck Tote Bag*
The Chino Deck Tote Bag is a deck tote, perfect for carrying books and personal items, and built like the thing it is named after. It is made of 12 oz. cotton duck, a heavy natural canvas that stands up on its own when you set it down, keeps its shape when it is full, and softens rather than frays with use. This is not a thin promotional tote that folds in half by the second week. It is the one still in the back of the car three summers later.
The natural cotton duck body is finished with contrast handles, which is what gives the bag its look: pale canvas, a bold strap, nothing else competing for attention. The handles run 27" long, so the tote carries comfortably on a shoulder instead of dragging from a hand, which matters on a beach path, a campus walk or the route from the parking lot to the bleachers. At 17-1/2"w x 15-1/2"h x 5"d it takes textbooks upright, a change of clothes, a picnic, two towels and a bottle of water, or a laptop with everything that travels alongside it.
Personalization is included with the Chino Deck Tote Bag, embroidered in-house by HansonEllis across two lines. Stitched thread does not crack, peel or wash off the way printing does, so a name embroidered into cotton duck stays legible for as long as the bag lasts. Two lines is room for a full name, a name and a year, a family name and a place, or a short line for each of your bridesmaids so nobody ends up carrying somebody else's bag home.
One tote is a gift. A dozen embroidered with different names is a bridal party, a team, a graduating class or a staff thank-you that people keep using. The Chino Deck Tote Bag works as a book bag, a beach bag, a market bag and an overnight bag, and it does all of them without looking like giveaway merchandise.
Type your two lines above, choose your quantity, and give somebody a bag with their name on it.

Care and use
- The body is 12 oz. cotton duck, a heavy canvas that holds its shape when the tote is loaded and set down.
- The 27" handles are made for shoulder carrying rather than hand carrying, which is what makes a full bag comfortable.
- Embroidered thread is stitched into the canvas rather than printed on it, so the wording does not crack or peel with use.

Which one should I choose
Totes separate into the ones built to carry weight and the ones handed out at trade shows.
| Chino Deck Tote Bag | Choose it when the bag has to hold books, towels or a laptop, stand up when set down, and carry an embroidered name for years. |
|---|---|
| A lightweight printed promotional tote | Choose it when the bag is disposable packaging for an event and nobody expects to keep it. |
| A plain unpersonalized canvas bag | Choose it when one person is using it and there is no group of identical bags to tell apart. |
For a bridal party, a team or a classroom, embroidery on 12 oz. cotton duck is what stops the bags becoming interchangeable.
