Another good source of bags and smaller fleece and cordura bags is:
www.aerostich.com
I have been using there products for the past 10 years.  US made and they
stand behind them.  They also have some very well made clothing.

Tnx

Check these chaps out as well. I have three of their bags and love them. My
