CECotton canvas, 16 oz
Cotton canvas, 16 oz
Heavy plain weave, 16 oz, dense and slightly stiff when new, softens with use.
| Best for | Retail tote bags, heavyweight shopper totes, and bags carried daily rather than once. |

| Limits | Heavy fabric is harder to turn at narrow corners and adds freight weight: a 16 oz tote is noticeably heavier in the hand than 12 oz. Large solid print areas need a heavier ink deposit. |
The heavy canvas for a tote meant to be reused for years: thicker yarn, tighter weave, enough body to carry weight without a base board.
