drawstring bag

Pull-closed fabric pouch

A drawstring bag is a simple pouch that closes by pulling cords threaded through the opening, cinching the top shut.

The design appears in everything from laundry bags to lightweight backpacks to gift packaging: She tossed her gym clothes into a drawstring bag.

The closure is quick but not secure—contents can spill if the bag tips.
