All of my products are Hand Made in the USA out of the highest quality military spec binding, 1000D cordura, mil spec webbing, and elastic. That's what all of my customers love about the gear I make, it's built tough.

As a FireFighter for over 12 years, I understand how durable fire hose is. I've used that insider knowledge to create Every Day Carry items that you'll carry and abuse daily. They will stand the test of time!

Recycled Firefighters makes reliable and rugged firefighter equipment bags that offer a modern look and uncompromising practicality. From using fire hoses to fight fires, to manufacturing bags and backpacks that can withstand a bit of heat, our mission is to bring these tough products to your doorstep. Read more
