Story

American-made traveler’s duffle built from heavy-duty waxed canvas

Steele Canvas applies its century-long expertise in industrial gear to the world of travel with the Waxed Canvas Duffle Bag. Hand-assembled in Massachusetts, this bag is built from a substantial 100% cotton waxed canvas that naturally repels water while gaining a rugged, personalized character over time.

About

Founded in 1921 on Hamilton Street in Cambridge, Massachusetts, Steele Canvas Basket began as a manufacturer of rugged products for the New England coal and textile industries. More than a century later, the company remains a family-owned legacy of American craftsmanship, now led by second-generation brothers John and Paul Lordan. While their line has evolved to include durable goods for the home, Steele continues to use many of their original manufacturing methods and time-honored techniques in their Massachusetts facility, ensuring every product is built to endure.
