Artisan Gear creates an award winning line of classic/casual bags
and accessories for travel, outdoor and everyday adventures. Founded in 1989, the company
has grown to become the most recognized name in hemp canvas gear in North America and
Japan.
The True Hemp Collection™ specializes in combining functional design and careful
construction into a distinctive line of goods, all backed with a full product guarantee. The
production begins with 18 oz. Hungarian Hemp. The fabric is then dyed using a low impact
process or left in its untreated and natural state. We’ve incorporated 100% cotton and waterproof nylon liners where applicable. Next we bring in
nylon webbings, YKK zippers and the highest quality buckles and fasteners in the industry.
Seams are double-stitched and taped, key stress points are all reinforced. At Artisan Gear
we emphasize American craftsmanship, attention to detail, sustainable materials and
enduring relationships with our customers.
In our Store Locator section you can locate a supplier of our gear
near you. We encourage our customers to support their local retailer. We also recognize
the variety of reasons you may choose to shop on line. For that purpose we’ve created
our online catalog and established this secure E.Company Store.
We’ve also added lots of valuable information and a network of links geared to raising environmental
awareness and supporting values-centered purchasing.
Artisan Gear stands behind every item we make. All of our goods are guaranteed against defects in workmanship
or materials. If you have any problems with our products, excluding normal wear and tear, return it to us and we'll repair
or replace the item.
Slubs and Shades
Hemp is a natural fiber, thus climate and processing may affect the final shade and
appearance of the fabric. Depending on some of these elements, variations in shade or
minor irregularities may be evident. These are unique characteristics of the fabric and
shouldn’t be taken as defects. We design with these qualities in mind.
