Key Features
- TearAway Label: This feature allows for seamless rebranding, enabling businesses to replace the manufacturer's tag with their own for a completely bespoke product feel.
- Zippered Main Compartment: High-quality zippers provide secure access to the spacious interior, keeping your belongings protected while on the move.
- Detachable Adjustable Shoulder Strap: Offers multiple carrying options, allowing you to tailor the bag's fit to your comfort or remove the strap entirely for a cleaner look.
- Webbing Carry Handles: These reinforced handles are engineered for strength, providing a secure grip even when the bag is at its full 20-litre capacity.
- Zippered Pouch Pocket: An external pocket provides quick access to smaller items like keys or identification, keeping them separate from the main load.
Design & Performance
The BG140 is constructed from 600D polyester, a material selected for its tight, resilient weave and impressive durability. This sturdy fabric ensures the bag holds its shape even when partially loaded, while providing a degree of natural resistance to the rigours of daily commutes or site visits. Despite its robust nature, the bag remains a medium-weight accessory, ensuring that the primary weight the user carries is the contents of the bag rather than the bag itself.
The inclusion of Amfori BSCI and REACH accreditations highlights a commitment to ethical manufacturing and chemical safety. This makes the BG140 a responsible choice for businesses that value transparency in their supply chain. Measuring 50 x 25 x 25cm, the dimensions are optimised for overhead lockers and gym lockers alike, offering a high degree of practical performance across various environments.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The Bagbase Original Barrel Bag is designed with customisation in mind. It offers generous flat surfaces that are perfect for showcasing company branding. Embroidery is highly recommended for a sophisticated, executive look; it is particularly effective on the ends or the front for displaying corporate logos with a textured, high-quality finish. Our Telford-based team, with expertise dating back to 1976, utilizes advanced tubular hoops (18 for the ends and 12 for the front) to ensure the embroidery is crisp and professional.
For larger, high-impact branding or promotional slogans, print is an excellent alternative. The bag offers a substantial 13 x 12cm print area on the front and 15 x 15cm on the ends. Whether you require a subtle name or a bold, multi-coloured design, the 600D polyester provides a stable substrate for vibrant and long-lasting customisation.
Use Cases
This barrel bag is exceptionally well-suited for several applications. It is a popular choice for sports teams and fitness professionals who require a branded kit bag that can withstand frequent use. It also serves as an excellent 'welcome pack' for new employees or as a premium giveaway at trade shows and industry events. Its unisex design and professional colour palette make it appropriate for any sector, from logistics to corporate office environments.

Practical Advice
When customising this bag, consider how it will be carried. If the bag is frequently used with the shoulder strap, a front-facing logo is most visible. For bags that will be stacked or stored in lockers, branding on the circular ends ensures your logo remains visible from all angles. For those looking to coordinate a full uniform, the classic styling of this bag pairs excellently with our range of medium-weight hoodies and softshell jackets.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and aesthetic of your Bagbase barrel bag, it is essential to adhere to the recommended cleaning protocol. This product is suitable for sponge cleaning only. Using a machine wash may damage the 600D polyester's internal coating and could lead to the bag losing its shape over time.
When sponge cleaning, use a mild detergent and lukewarm water. Avoid the use of bleach or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can degrade the fabric fibres and cause the colours of both the bag and your custom branding to fade prematurely. Always allow the bag to air dry naturally; using a tumble dryer can cause significant shrinkage and may damage the adhesive bond of any printed elements.
