Otaru Weekend Bag

Otaru Weekendtaske is made for the kind of trips that don't need a suitcase – an overnight stay, a conference or a long weekend. The waterproof material means the bag can sit in the boot or on a wet platform without its contents getting damaged, while the simple design makes it just as suitable for a business trip as for heading out of town on a Friday afternoon. The wide handles and adjustable shoulder strap make it comfortable to carry, even when fully packed, and it keeps its shape even when it isn't filled to the brim. With your own logo printed on the bag, it also becomes something that gets carried visibly through airports and car parks.

According to the travel industry's own figures, Danes are booking their holidays earlier than ever, and more people are prioritising experiences over traditional luxury – a trend that makes travel bags a gift people will actually use. A weekend bag is therefore an obvious corporate gift: it works as an anniversary gift, as part of a larger travel package or as something the sales team takes to client meetings. It is also a natural choice as a leaving gift or a token of appreciation when someone has been with the company for many years. Put your own logo on the bag, and it works for you every time it is set down in a meeting room or lifted off a luggage rack.

The bag is large enough for a couple of days' worth of clothes and shoes, yet stays within most airlines' hand luggage size limits. For longer journeys, it makes a useful addition to a suitcase; for short trips, it is often all you need to pack. That makes it a bag people use all year round, not just when they need to pack a lot, and that is exactly the kind of gift worth putting your logo on. If the trip is a little longer, a travel mug for coffee along the way is a natural accessory, while for a weekend gym session, a smaller gym bag is often the better choice.
