How to Get a Prototype Bag Made for Your Business

If your business requires a custom bag—whether for medical devices, military applications, or commercial use—getting a prototype made is the first step toward production. A prototype allows you to test the design, functionality, and durability before committing to a full production run. At Fieldtex, we specialize in prototype sewing for industrial and commercial applications, ensuring that your bag meets your exact needs.

Why Prototyping Matters

Prototyping is an essential step in product development. It allows businesses to evaluate design concepts, refine features, and identify potential improvements before mass production. Some key benefits include:

  • Better Design Understanding: A prototype provides a tangible model to visualize the final product, ensuring that all specifications align with your intended use.
  • Early Feedback: Gathering feedback from stakeholders and end-users helps refine the design and improve functionality before large-scale manufacturing.
  • Cost and Time Savings: Making changes during the prototyping phase is significantly more cost-effective than modifying a product after production has started.
  • Validation Before Production: Testing a prototype ensures that the final product meets industry standards and user expectations.
  • User Testing and Research: Understanding how end-users interact with the product allows for enhancements that improve usability and performance.

Fieldtex’s Approach to Bag Prototyping

Fieldtex offers full-service textile prototyping for businesses that require durable, high-quality bags and pouches. Unlike fashion-oriented handbag prototype makers, we specialize in industrial and heavy duty textiles and fabrics, making us the ideal choice for businesses needing backpacks, pouches, and other textile based products.

Our prototyping process begins with sketches and blueprints rather than traditional fashion industry tech packs. We find that few of our industrial sewing customers have a tech pack and generally speaking they are over kill for the industrial products we are making.

Our Experience with Backpack and Pouch Prototyping

At Fieldtex, we have extensive experience creating backpack prototypes and prototype pouches for various industries. Whether you need a big backpack for field use or a specialized pouch to house sensitive equipment, we ensure that your prototype meets the highest quality standards. Our expertise in textile prototype development enables us to produce durable, functional designs to your needs.

How to Get a Prototype Made

  1. Define Your Needs: Determine the size, materials, and features required for your bag. Consider elements like zippers, hook-and-loop enclosures, and waterproofing.
  2. Submit Your Design: Provide sketches or blueprints outlining your specifications. Our team will review your submission and discuss any necessary modifications.
  3. Prototype Creation: We produce an initial prototype based on your design. Our standard rate for a prototype is $175.
  4. Testing and Feedback: Evaluate the prototype’s functionality and durability. We’ll incorporate any changes needed to refine the final design.
  5. Prepare for Production: Once the prototype is approved, we can transition to full-scale manufacturing.

Why Choose Fieldtex?

Fieldtex only takes on prototyping projects that have the potential for larger production runs. This ensures that we can offer competitive pricing while maintaining high-quality standards. Our textile prototyping services are designed for businesses that require prototyping on new projects whether that project is going into tomorrow or 18 months from now.
