Let customers speak for us
I love the customization of the bags that is available!! I camp in the bwca and like to keep weight light. He was able to make me a custom size bag on the colors i wanted. He also was able to make additional add ons for my gear so i can organize how i want. Straps and waist band are VERY comfortable!! Already recommended to 4 other people. Carries weight comfortably from 20lbs to 70. Cant recommend enough
While I haven’t had a chance to take this pack out yet, I’ve already loaded it up and worn it for walks around the neighborhood. It’s a solid, well made pack that I have no doubt will serve me very well in the BWCA. Ordering was easy and I received my pack sooner than expected - a welcome surprise these days with custom hand made goods. I’m very glad I chose this pack over other canoe packs on the market - and was thrilled to support a local MN business
This item is built for abuse! High quality materials, well designed , skillfully sewn. USA made right in MN. Nice size for my application. Not too large where it would lose shape if not super full of stuff. Just right attached to the MNZ gear Barrel Harnesses. Buy it, it should last a lifetime.
I ordered the Double BV500 transporter. Item arrived on time and looks great! Appears to be very high quality.
I saw the front loading pack and it really intrigued me. I decided after years of using just Duluth packs that it was time I tried something new. I thought the front loading concept was great and the stainless hardware was also a great idea. My Duluth packs are heavy and even heavier when wet compared to the codura packs on the market these days. So I reached out to the owner of MNZ Gear with some questions I had and he was quick to respond. He even let me try two packs out before I ordered mine because he said it was important to him that I ordered the right size for my needs. After trying them out I was quick to put in my order for a custom 50 liter pack and a custom map case. I was really impressed after seeing them first hand and trying them out. After I got mine I put it outside in some pretty heavy rains to see how water resistant it was compared to my Duluth packs. To my surprise there wasn’t a drop of water inside afterwards. They aren’t advertised as waterproof or anything but I was just curious. So far this has been a great pack and I really like the idea of supporting a small business making things so close to home. If your in the market for a new pack I wouldn’t hesitate to check them out.
