Banded was formed by a group of avid outdoorsmen, innovators, and product designers that joined Forces after years of working in the outdoor industry. After countless hours of brainstorming and discussing product designs, we decided to make a run at it. Our Quest to produce better products LED us around the globe in search of the finest materials and engineering processes. Through new-aged technology, extensive materials testing, and precise manufacturing, Banded was born. Ideas that were once drawn on the tailgate of a pick-up eventually evolved into finished products. Design themes of traditional military bags, tools, and clothing were incorporated into inventive stylish designs. And, we put great emphasis on eliminating, where possible, plastic hardware. You'll quickly notice our common use of metal buckles, grommets, rivets, and other components.
