About Tough Traveler

 

Designed & Manufactured in America since 1970

 

Located in the old industrial corridor of Upstate New York, Tough Traveler has been producing fine hand-crafted bags & packs since 1970. Our talented artisans design and manufacture everything from small pouches to large wheeled luggage, from dog carrier backpacks to guitar bags. Our focus is on creating a sustainable product that is not only ethically made, but built to last for our customers for decades.

 

A Great Reputation:

Tough Traveler's products are widely known in many different fields.

Our Baby / Child Carriers have been reviewed and recommended by top publications, such as Child Magazine, Outside, Backpacker, Baby Bargains, and more. They have been sold by such large retailers as REI, EMS, and L.L. Bean. They have been used in such expeditions as Tom Whittaker's First Disabled Ascent of Mt. Everest, taking his daughter up to base camp.  And as shown in many pictures sent by our customers, our Dog Perch(TM) dog carrier backpacks  have also hiked mountains, and taken many wonderful trips!

 

Our Travel Bags have received accolades from users around the world, and been featured in Kiplinger's, Family Travel Forum, Good Housekeeping, and many other places.

 

 Our EMS bags are trusted by first responders, and were used at the Lake Placid Winter Olympics.  Visit the Lake Placid Olympic Museum and see one of our bags - shown here - in their rotating display!  Our ems bags and packs have been used by many ambulance crews, doctors, nurses, etc. for decades.

Over the years, USA sporting goods dealers, luggage retailers, baby stores, etc. have primarily become sellers of imported products, while Tough Traveler products have proudly continued to set the high standard of excellence made in the USA, with respect for USA wage laws & USA environmental laws.
