Design IQ is a Bag Design Consultancy that provides a customised service to Design & Manufacture bags, luggage and textile equipment for Brands and Retailers.

Design IQ was founded in 1985 as a Bag Design Firm specializing in the Fashion Sport market who have over 35 years designed Active Lifestyle apparel, luggage and accesories for a wide range of International Brands in many different Sport and Active Lifestyle market sectors.

We specialize in Designing Bags, Luggage and Accesories for Brands and Retailers.

What makes us different? We successfully combine being both Commercial and Creative, and we have our own Market Research and Ideas to bring to clients who value having “thinking creative people” around them to make sound commercial judgments about new product design.

Our customers are busy and pressured to be “on the ball” so they need outside suppliers that can react quickly with confidence to their objectives – that is what we are organised to do.

Design IQ understand the need in the growing sports, outdoor, lifestyle and promotional market for a pro-active approach to providing a design service to brand owners and retailers. So we are here to supply a bag design service to demanding commercial buyers.

We believe that designers should not be passive waiting for commissions, but should  constantly be developing their own concepts ready to bring them to major brands as ready formed ideas, as well as being up to date on both creative and consumer trends. So we develop our own prototype ideas as well as design to order for clients.

With this proactive approach you will find we are responsible partners who design bags and care whether a product sells.

In summary the Design IQ team focuses on designing and manufacturing designer technical bags, luggage, laptop and promotional bag equipment products. Our forte is to combine purity of technical function with capturing the zeitgeist in styling, to create appealing functional designer bag products with brand personality for our customers.

Pose us a Bag Design challenge that requires a commercially minded solution – we believe you will value the “commercial insight” as well as the Designs we bring to you…..
