Hand made in the USA! Duluth Pack gear is made in northern Minnesota by craftsman, their products are expensive no doubt, but you are paying for quality American made products here people! These products will truly last a lifetime and are guaranteed! Reinforced with rivets at stress point, quality canvas...worth every penny!Now for this bag...it is huge! Really big, be sure to carefully look at the measurements. For my needs it was too big, if I was to fill to capacity I wouldn't be able to carry it, so it has to go back. This no way affects my review if this item or Duluth Packs in general. I should have looked at the dimensions closer prior to ordering. It is quality and I repeat, worth ever penny.
