Lone Peak Bags
Lone Peak is also celebrating a birthday this year-they have been in business since 1979 making bags and packs in the USA.
We chose their products as they are made to last, and are attractive and functional.Here is the low down as to what makes this company special as well as their products:
They use 1000 Denier Cordura Plus as the material for their products. They then have it coated with weatherproof polyurethane for water protection and durability. They reinforce the high wear areas with 18oz Coverlight-a material highly resistant to abrasion, puncture and tears. They use 100% Nylon Webbing-many companies use inexpensive polypropylene webbings. As for the actual stitching of the bags-you won't have a seam fail as they triple stitch all attachment and stress points with #92 Bonded Nylon Thread. They sew every seam twice, once during the initial sewing process, then a second time when the seams are covered with Nylon Seam Binding. The zippers used are large #8 Self-repairing Coil Zippers with nickel sliders for extra durability and quiet, cord pull tabs. For added visibility they only use 3M Scotchlite Reflective Tape.They design and make all of their stiffeners and other custom pannier. Finally, all of their packs are made in the USA, with all Made in the USA materials, and have a lifetime warranty to back them up.
