Made in USA Bug-Out-Bags?

Good luck!

 

Kifaru, International

100% made in the USA. Nice looking stuff. Wish I could afford it.

been doing business with them for years and had a chest rig and a three day pack in Afghanistan and they held up very well.

That new Kifaru 'Outside the Wire' bag looks good for a small bag. $198 isn't too rich.

According to the Kifaru forum they are planning a more subtle model for civilians.

 

Good lookin gear. Better lookin calendar:

 

You might try these guys. They are local here in Vancouver. I buy load rated canvas bags through them for my crews. Their stuff is top notch.

I know united fire and safety in Portland is a dealer for them. You may be able to buy from them direct, it says they make tactical military stuff on their site.

I got 2 of these. 1 woodland and one desert. washed the desert with black dye to darken it up.. $59 each.. When I got mine they were $49 each.

I like my Camelbak Motherlode. Some of their other bags are very nice as well. The Talon is nice, but isn't overly large if you like a smaller bag. The company is still headquartered in California, but I'm not sure if they're still made in the U.S.A., but I think they were at one time and may still be...

And as nice as Kifaru stuff is, the Camelbak is more affordable. My Motherlode is five years old and has spent three seasons fishing in Alaska, as well as lots of hunts, and is holding up nicely...

 

I'm starting to wish it was a requirement for online retailers to say where products are manufactured. You can see where its made if you're buying it in person. Looking at products across a variety of retailers and some manufacturers few indicated where items were made. I felt lucky to even see the word imported.

 

the tags only say USDOD. and all the numbers. there is a wep address on the tag too.. From what I can tell from thier web page these pack are all made in the USA..

Although they have plants in the US, I think the SDS manufactured milsurp on that link is primarily made outside the US. Their parent company BAE is British.

The website for Downeast Inc frames doesn't say where they are made.

 

added pic's to my first post

 

On the spendy side, but great quality and design:

Edit: Looks like they took all their backpacks off of the site.

 

If you want made in America and a lifetime warranty then go with Red OXX Mfg in Billings Montana. They are top notch. I had a bag from them that I got second hand which had a few holes in it. I called them to ask what would be the best way to sew up the holes and they asked me to send the bag to them and they would sew it up for me, after a few days a package shows up on my door not with my old bag repaired but with a brand new bag in the box! Now that's customer service! :thumbup: Only other company I know with customer service like that is Leupold. Gary
