If you visit https://bikepacking.com/index/ and look under each category, they will list products and note the country of origin, which has in the past helped me find gear that is made here in Canada.

For example:

Hopefully, this helps someone :)

      Nice! I’ve got two Bug bags, purchased second hand at different times. One is “vintage” with the old style maple leaf on the Made in Canada tag, while the other is more like yours.

      TBH, the bug is my least used of the bags I have. I’m a huge fan of the Metropolitan and the Signature H, but I also love the Shopper, Ultra Lite, Trailrider… and more… oh god, I like them all, really. LOL

          I’ve got one of those black plastic shelving units for all my bike parts and accessories. Some are just hung off the shelves, and others are on it.

          If I had a better place for them, I’d want to display them better because they are nice bags 😀

        You may have too many of them. 😆

        Mine is almost permanently attached to my bike. I only take it off when I need to go somewhere without my bike.

          You have no idea.

          Multiple trailers, panniers, handlebar bags, frame bags… I’ve used my bike(s) as a car replacement for nearly everything these past two years! Everything gets used, and I’ve got so many options at my disposal.

          It’s an investment, for sure, but I tend to go all in when I commit to something, and I don’t see myself ever not using my bike for everything 😄
