Cord closure
1 or 2 cords
The drawstring cord is the most common system to close your pouch or dust bag. First there is the 1-drawstring fastening which requires that one hold the bag in one hand and pull the drawstring with the other : this option is best-suited to small bags. Then, there is the 2-drawstring cord fastening which is easily closed by pulling on each drawstring.
The end of the drawstring cord is often a simple knot. Upon request, an accessory such as a transparent tip and/or a cord lock.
Color of the cord
Each cord quality has its own color chart and is manufactured to order. For a particular shade of cord, simply indicate the desired Pantone reference and the cord will be produced in that shade.
The colored cord is made from a white or black core, which provides shape and rigidity; the dyed trim threads surround this base and create the final cord.
For a fully dyed cord (core and covering thread) a large length is required.
