What it is.

i.
i. Philosophy

A bag for the boutique floor. 200 gsm coated or uncoated paper, gusseted, with handles in rope, ribbon, knotted cord, or saddle-stitched leather. The base gets a reinforced board insert; the gussets tuck flat at the side.

Common formats: tall portrait for fragrance, square for jewellery, broadsheet for apparel. We die-cut the handle holes to ±0.5 mm and reinforce with eyelets where the brief calls for them. Hot-foil and emboss on the front panel match the box inside.

Used for boutique carry-out, retail flagship gift wrapping, and event hand-out. Lead time 16–22 days, minimum 500. The Sophisticate in Vol. XII is a corded handle on a broadsheet — the longest format we make.
