I tried to sublimate on this bag and it scorched the handles and melted the insides together. If used for another purpose it would be a great bag. It just cant withstand high temps.

By putting a towel inside the bag we were able to use the heat press. It turned out great! Our youth group uses them for keeping up with their books for club. This worked wonderfully for us. Good sturdy bag.
These totes are not the large beach totes, but rather a manageable size for everyday hauling. I bought them to use with HTV and try sublimation. I believe they are coated in pvc inside the front pocket and the bag itself so I used a small bath towel and cloth inside the pockets to keep them from melting together. The black handles will also melt so I protected them with a few sheets of printing paper and covered the entire project with a Teflon sheet before sublimating in my press at 375 for 60 seconds.
Great quality. Nice handle too. These are a thick canvas with a coating that can be wiped down on the inside. If you are applying HTV on these make sure that you put something in the middle before pressing on or your bag will stick together on the inside. Learned that the hard way.
I ordered both white and royal blue. They were very nice quality and the white is perfect for sublimation being 100% poly. I got a 3xl for my husband and it was true to size.
I used these to make Fortnite themed favor bags for my grandson's 10th birthday. Worked like a charm! I used HTV, pressed at 305 for 15 seconds with my heat press. Would recommend.
Subliminated on these and they worked perfectly. You do have to be very careful not to heat the black parts at the bottom and the stings. Melted quite a few of those. 🤦🏼♀️
We used this for sublimation and burnt the inside of the bag when we had it set to 380 degrees. We had better results when we dropped it to 350. Make sure you put something in the center of the bag, or it will melt together.
Bought a bunch of these for my workers (lawn care). Great for wiping their hands or the sweat from the Florida heat. We heat pressed their names onto their towel for ID purposes. Hope this helps. Be blessed.
Used this tote bag as a teacher gift during New Teacher Orientation. We had a drawing for teacher gifts. We filled this tote with things a new teacher would need . . hand sanitizer, paper, Lysol wipes, etc.
