Description

PATCH PLACEMENT ON PACKS: Each pack has a designated spot for the State Patch addition, we cannot accept placement requests. If you would like to know where the patch will be installed, please reach out to frinfo@frostriver.com. You’re proud of where you’re from, so show it with one of our custom patches. Our sewing it onto the backer helps give the patch structure while also providing stitch holes so you can easily sew it onto your gear. Each patch is made and sewn right in our shop from locally-sourced, natural deerhide buckskin leather. The leather may have scars or other natural blemishes from being a deer in the wild, and it’s the same rugged buckskin that we use on our heavy duty mittens and canoe packs — it’s the good stuff.

You can read more about out Canvas My State program, here, but the gist is this: if you'd like us to put a patch on for you when placing an order for certain Frost River gear, you have the option of adding a deerhide buckskin patch. We've created an assortment of iconic regional outlines to chose from. If we've got the bag in stock, we'll sew your patch on within a couple business days, or if we're out of stock and need to build your bag from scratch, we'll let you know it'll take just a little longer. Just make sure to choose that you would like Frost River to install the patch, and to which item on your order that you'd like it added to. We’ve listened to all the votes, comments and phone calls. Due to popular demand, we’re proud to offer patches for all 50 US states. Coast to coast, river to mountain, we’ve got patches handmade in our town that’ll cover your neck of the woods. We’d love to see your patch out in the wild. Share it by tagging #CanvasMyState and tell us what makes your region special. We’ll share selected posts and give your regional pride a shoutout. Cheers!

Patch

Really like it but I wish it had been put on about 3/4 of an inch over so the strap would not hang over it. But other than that it is perfect

I bought a South Carolina patch for my husband to personalize his Frost River Explorer duffel. One thing I didn’t realize is that we would need to sew the patch on - for some reason I thought it was adhesive. But with a little trial and error my boy scout husband got it sewn to his duffel and it looks great. Thank you for your USA handmade products!

I love these patches. I have four of them, one on every piece of Frost River gear I own save for my wallet. I have three of the Oklahoma patches, two on day packs and one on my gun case. On my new Americana day pack I opted for the Lower-48 patch given the red, white, and blue colors of the pack and the fact that I bought it on the 4th of July. That really made an all-American pack even more so.

Looks good and adds unique feature to my bag

What can I say, it’s a deer hide patch in the shape of the state of Minnesota. How do you “rate” that?

I am rating it based on its ability to add unique character to my bag. Travel bags with character tell a story. How about a story that includes where the traveler is from? I am from Minnesota, and wherever I take this bag, that will be part of the story it tells.

5 star rating for making my bag unique to me and my story.
