Customized Duffle Bags

As I’ve mentioned in many of my posts, one of the most important things to consider when choosing a wedding party gift is the item’s reusability. You don’t want to go out and spend money buying a gift for someone that they won’t ever use. A great idea that ranks very high on the reusability scale are customized duffle bags.

You could just give a duffle bag as the gift, but if you’ve read the other posts on this website, you know by now that this gift idea can be far better than just a bag!  The bag itself is great because who doesn’t need a new bag? It can be used as a carry-on bag on a plane, a gym bag, an every day use bag, and so on….so many possible uses for it!

Now lets think for a minute about what we can put inside the bag to make it an even better gift. I’ve listed some of my ideas below, maybe you’ll like them or maybe it will get your creative juices flowing and you may come up with another idea….and if that’s the case, please leave a comment below and then I can add it to the list so others can benefit too. Oh and don’t worry, I’ll be sure to credit you!

1. Sports Duffle Bag

Surely there’s a sports fan or two among your groomsmen. Imagine how cool it would be for them to open their bag to find a bunch of paraphernalia for their favorite team! You can get pretty much anything with a team logo on it but here are some ideas for things you can put in the bag….pick and choose the ones you like:

• new hat
• t-shirt or jersey – also consider a tshirt jersey, maybe even with their favorite player on the back
• ball (or puck) – this one can be with or without the logo so it can be used to play with
• Sportula – a really cool spatula with the logo in it…I have this one and it is really awesome!
• Beer mug – perfect to use while watching the big game
• Travel mug – show your team pride while on the go

You can find these items and so much more, I highly recommend checking out Amazon (where all personalizations are totally free!) to find exactly what you’re looking for!

5. One Final Touch

One last idea for the bag is that you can get a luggage tag or create your own sticker or something like that to stick on the outside.  Attach a thank you note or maybe a funny picture of you and your groomsman…..it will be a really nice touch to a fantastic gift!

Conclusion

This gift idea ranks extremely high on the reusability scale which is a crucial aspect to gift giving….remember, you don’t want to spend money on things that will never get used.  The ideas in this post make for a great gift, but don’t think that you have to only stick with one “theme” to the bag.  Mix and match items that you know your groomsmen will like….take some from several categories.  Have fun with it and they will too!
