Logo printing on fashion handbags

Quick answer

Embossing and debossing is the most common way to brand fashion handbags — executive bags and premium gifts. For a premium, long-lasting logo, choose embossing and debossing. The usual logo position is the front panel (embossed or foil).

Watch-outs by method

  • Embossing and debossing: Fine lines need a minimum thickness to press cleanly.
  • Foil stamping: Works best on smooth surfaces.
  • Patches and metal logo plates: Adds thickness; the mould is a one-time cost reused for reorders.
  • Woven labels: Labels have their own minimum quantities.
