The story begins with a man who put himself through college by working for a sail loft, where he was first introduced to the beefy canvas materials used for sail boats and nautical wear, the same fabrics he now uses for his bags. Since working for the loft he kept his interest in sewing and started making things as a stress reliever. He created packs and bags for himself and family, and when he posted his work on the internet he didn't think of the work as a money generating project. But the heavy-duty bags took off, and he now spends considerable time working on their production. Craig sources his materials locally and from within the U.S. whenever possible. His YKK zippers come out ofNew York. His canvas is sourced from Fairfield Textiles in New Jersey. He focuses on materials that are simple and basic that will withstand the test of time.
