Logo size that fits each bag

Seams, pockets, flaps and handles reduce the usable area; we confirm the exact print size on the artwork proof.
How bag sizes are measured
Width (W)
Measured across the front panel, seam to seam, at the base.
Height (H)
Measured from the base to the top edge of the bag — handles are not included.
Depth / gusset (D)
The width of the side and base panels. A deeper gusset lets the bag stand up and hold boxes.
