What Is 210 Denier Polyester – And Why Is It Great for Kids Bags?

When it comes to drawstring school bags, the fabric really matters. Spotted Lizard Prints uses 210 denier polyester – a material known for being lightweight yet impressively tough.

Understanding “Denier”

“Denier” is a way of measuring the thickness and weight of fibres. In simple terms:

  • Higher denier = thicker, stronger fabric
  • Lower denier = thinner, lighter fabric

At 210 denier, the polyester used for Spotted Lizard Prints’ drawstring bags hits that sweet spot:

  • Light enough for kids to carry easily
  • Strong enough to cope with everyday school life

Why 210D Polyester Works So Well for Kids

Children aren’t exactly gentle with their stuff. Bags get:

  • Dumped on the floor
  • Thrown into cars or cloakrooms
  • Overstuffed with PE kits, water bottles, trainers and “treasures”

210D polyester is:

  • Highly resistant to wear and tear
  • Flexible, yet sturdy
  • Easy to wipe clean (ideal for muddy fields and leaky bottles)
  • Designed to handle daily use without falling apart

So while the bag feels light and easy to carry, it isn’t flimsy – it’s built for real life. Spotted Lizard Prints offers a fantastic range of personalised gifts that are perfect for kids of all ages. From adorable baby vests and sibling announcement outfits to fun Christmas Eve pillowcases, school accessories, cushions, and keepsake teddies, every item is designed to bring smiles and create lasting memories. Personalisation makes each gift feel extra special, whether it features a child’s name, a meaningful date, or a favourite character design. Hand printed to order using high quality sublimation, each product is made to be durable, vibrant, and long lasting – ideal for everyday use, celebrations, and treasured childhood keepsakes.


Built to Last: Reinforced Corners & Strong Construction

One of the weakest points on many cheap drawstring bags is the bottom corners, where the cords are threaded through. This is where the fabric can rip under strain.

Spotted Lizard Prints’ kids bags are designed to avoid that problem.

PU Leather Reinforced Corners

Each 210D drawstring bag features:

  • Triangle PU leather reinforced corners
  • Metal eyelets/grommets for the drawstrings

These reinforced corners:

  • Spread the strain more evenly
  • Protect the fabric from rubbing and tearing
  • Make the bag much more suitable for heavy use

For kids who carry:

  • PE kits

  • Trainers or football boots

  • Books, bottles, or lunch boxes

…that extra strength can make a big difference to how long the bag lasts.


Lightweight, Comfortable and Easy to Carry

Kids don’t need more weight on their shoulders. That’s why drawstring bags are such a great school and club option.

Light But Strong

At 210D, the bag fabric is:

  • Very lightweight on its own
  • Sturdy enough to carry day-to-day essentials

Children can easily carry the bag:

  • Over one shoulder
  • On both shoulders like a backpack
  • By the drawstrings if they’re just moving a short distance

Comfortable Design & Generous Sizing

With approximate dimensions of 42 x 34 cm (16.54 x 13.5 inches), these drawstring bags have:

  • Plenty of room for PE kits, shoes, water bottle and a jumper
  • Enough space for swimming gear or an after-school club change of clothes

The two straps on each side make them simple to slip on and off, and the flexible material sits comfortably against a child’s back.


Convenient Drawstring Closure – Simple for Little Hands

One of the brilliant things about drawstring bags is how easy they are for children to use. There are no fiddly zips or buckles to battle with.

Fast and Secure

The drawstring closure allows kids to:

  • Open the bag quickly
  • Toss in their kit or belongings
  • Pull the strings to close it securely

This is especially handy when:

  • They’re rushing at the end of PE
  • They need to grab a snack or water bottle quickly
  • Clubs are busy and there’s not much time to pack carefully

The closure also helps keep items contained and safe while they’re on the move.


Multi-Functional: School, Clubs, Holidays & More

A personalised kids drawstring bag is incredibly versatile. Once you have one, you’ll find endless uses for it.

Perfect For:

  • PE Kits – the classic use, with kit, pumps and trainers all in one place
  • Swimming Lessons – towel, costume, goggles, and a comb
  • After-School Clubs – football boots, dance clothes, gymnastics gear
  • Day Trips – snacks, a light jacket, a water bottle and a toy
  • Sleepovers – pyjamas, teddy, toothbrush and a book

Because it’s lightweight and folds flat, it’s also ideal for holidays – a quick extra bag for beach trips or mini adventures.


Personalised Kids Bags – No More Lost Property!

If you’ve ever spent time digging through the school lost property box, you’ll know the pain of unlabelled bags. Personalised bags from Spotted Lizard Prints make life so much easier.

Personalisation Options

Designs can typically be customised with:

  • Your child’s name
  • Their initials
  • A fun graphic or theme that matches their personality (depending on the design)

This means:

  • Staff can immediately see who the bag belongs to
  • Other children are less likely to accidentally grab it
  • Your child can feel proud of their special bag

For families with multiple children, personalisation also stops endless “That’s mine!” arguments!


Personalised Pencil Cases to Match

Kids don’t just need somewhere to stash PE kit – they need a home for all those pens, pencils, rubbers, sharpeners, glue sticks and highlighters.

That’s where personalised pencil cases come in.

Why Personalised Pencil Cases Are So Handy

  • Easy to identify in the classroom
  • Helps children take responsibility for their own stationery
  • Reduces “borrowing” and “losing” of pens and pencils
  • Makes going back to school a bit more exciting

A custom pencil case with your child’s name, initials or favourite design can be:

  • Part of a matching set with their drawstring bag
  • A stocking filler or small birthday gift
  • A way to encourage tidiness and organisation

At Spotted Lizard Prints, personalisation is done with the same focus on quality, clarity and durability as their bags and clothing.


Customisable & Perfect for Gifting

Personalised kids bags and pencil cases from Spotted Lizard Prints make brilliant gifts as well as school essentials.

Great Gift Ideas

  • Back-to-school presents – to get kids excited for a new term
  • Birthday gifts – especially for classmates or friends
  • Christmas or stocking fillers – practical yet personal
  • Sports team gifts – matching personalised bags for a club or squad
  • Party favours – filled with small treats for special occasions

Because each item can be customised, you can tailor it to:

  • Favourite colours

  • Names or nicknames

It’s a practical gift that still feels thoughtful and fun.
