The materials come from sails, so it’s from this “previous life” if you like, that makes each bag unique.
They tout all American made. They say that they use one of the last remaining thread manufacturers in the United States and one of a few rope manufacturers in New England. The company is located on Custom House Wharf in the heart of Portland Maine’s waterfront.
