Product Overview
The Bagbase Retro shoulder bag is a well-engineered accessory that combines a nostalgic aesthetic with modern professional functionality. Designed to meet the demands of the daily commute or on-site work, this bag offers a practical 18-litre capacity. Its structured silhouette, reinforced by an internal baseboard, ensures the bag maintains a professional appearance whether it is full or partially empty, avoiding the unprofessional sagging often seen in lesser-quality alternatives.
Key Features
- Adjustable shoulder strap: Provides a customisable fit for any user, ensuring comfort and even weight distribution throughout the working day.
- Zippered front pocket: Allows for the secure storage and quick retrieval of essential items such as identity cards, keys, or small tools.
- Internal valuables pocket: Offers a discreet and safe location for sensitive items, keeping them separate from the main compartment for peace of mind.
- Internal baseboard: Adds structural integrity to the bag, protecting the contents from impact when placed on hard surfaces and maintaining the bag's shape.
Design & Performance
Crafted from 600D Polyester, this shoulder bag is built for resilience. This specific fabric choice provides a high level of abrasion resistance, which is vital for workwear gear that is frequently handled or transported between locations. The material is robust enough to protect its contents while remaining lightweight enough for easy carriage. The retro styling, combined with contemporary fabric technology, results in a garment that is as durable as it is visually appealing.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The Bagbase Retro shoulder bag serves as an excellent platform for your brand identity. Embroidery is the preferred choice for a sophisticated and permanent professional finish, particularly suited for company logos or staff names. This method ensures your branding remains intact despite the friction and wear typical of a bag's lifespan.
For larger, high-impact branding, the substantial print area of 34 x 13cm is ideal. This allows for bold, high-visibility designs that make a strong impression. All customisation is carried out in-house by our expert team in Telford, where we have been perfecting the art of workwear branding since 1976.
Use Cases
This bag is highly versatile, making it an ideal choice for field-based technicians, office staff, or even as part of a high-quality promotional gift set. It is perfectly sized for carrying documents, small laptops, or personal essentials, providing a unified and professional look for teams on the move.

Practical Advice
To maximise comfort, adjust the shoulder strap so the bag rests against the small of your back or hip. This prevents the bag from swinging and helps manage the load effectively. Despite its sturdy construction, always ensure heavy items are placed against the baseboard to maintain the bag's profile.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and professional appearance of your bag, it is essential to follow the specific care requirements for 600D Polyester.
This product should be sponge cleaned only. You must avoid machine washing or total immersion in water, as this can compromise the internal baseboard and the protective backing of the fabric, leading to a loss of structure and reduced lifespan.
Always address spills and marks immediately with a damp cloth and mild detergent. This prevents stains from setting and ensures that your custom embroidery or print remains vibrant and clear for as long as possible.
