Conference souvenirs - backpack

One of the souvenirs for the conference is a drawstring backpack. These are handy because participants have stuff to hold like their schedule, notebooks, pens, waterbottle, and etc.

I suggested tote bags, but tote bags are apparently girly, so we went for backpacks. Finding a good supplier who can get us a good quote for such a small volume was one of the biggest difficulties here. Second was finding a cheap canvas or cotton tote, rather than going for that wishy-washy weird-feeling waterproof material. Nonetheless we found one in the states and got it shipped to us JUST IN TIME for the conference.

I made four options to choose from. The bag was requested to be in a red colour, and the more colours you screenprint the pricier it gets so I kept everything white.

Final decision! We went with this one!
