Design & Performance
The performance of this barrel bag is rooted in its 600D polyester fabric. This material is chosen for its exceptional durability and resistance to abrasions, ensuring the bag maintains its structural integrity even when full. The fabric is substantial and sturdy, providing a reliable barrier for your belongings against the everyday wear and tear of a busy work schedule.
Measuring 55 x 28 x 28cm, the proportions are carefully balanced to maximise volume without becoming cumbersome. The heavy-duty zippers are designed for longevity, providing a smooth action that won't fail after repeated use. This is a well-engineered garment for your equipment, built to last longer than cheaper alternatives.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This barrel bag is an excellent canvas for customisation. Its flat surfaces on the front and ends are perfectly suited for both print and embroidery. Embroidery is the preferred choice for a professional appearance, adding a high-quality, textured finish to company logos or staff names. For larger, more vibrant graphics or promotional messaging, our high-definition printing services are highly effective.
Our expert team in Telford has been refining these techniques since 1976. We utilise specialised 18 tubular hoops for embroidery to ensure the design is perfectly tensioned and precisely placed. Whether you require a subtle brand mark on the end of the bag or a bold statement across the front, we ensure the finish meets our rigorous quality standards.
Use Cases
The Original Barrel Bag XL is highly versatile. It is particularly effective for tradespeople who need to carry a change of clothes or light equipment to a site. It also serves as a premium gym or sports bag for corporate teams, and its high capacity makes it a sensible choice for short-term business travel or as part of a branded uniform for event staff.

Practical Advice
When using the shoulder strap, ensure it is adjusted so the bag sits comfortably against your hip to prevent unnecessary swinging. For those looking to rebrand these bags for resale or specific team identification, the TearAway label makes it incredibly simple to add your own bespoke neck or side tags without leaving any residue or damage to the seam.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and appearance of the 600D polyester, this bag should be sponge cleaned only. Machine washing can damage the internal coating of the fabric and may lead to the bag losing its shape over time.
Avoid using bleach or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can degrade the synthetic fibres and cause the colour to fade prematurely. Simply use a damp cloth and mild detergent to remove surface dirt, ensuring the bag is fully air-dried before storage to prevent any dampness from affecting the interior.
