## What We Make

Red Paw Packs is a cottage gear maker specializing in ultralight backpacking equipment. All products are designed, sewn, and shipped by Matt Evans from Colorado. The business started after a backpacking trip inspired Matt to learn MYOG (Make Your Own Gear) sewing, and evolved into a full custom pack-making operation.
