When it comes to bags only the best is good enough and here at The Montrose Bag Company on the North East coast of Scotland, we put heritage and skill at the heart of what we do. Our parent company, Montrose Rope & Sail was founded back in 1789 to serve the Scottish fishing fleets. Fast-forward over two hundred years and MR&S is now the go-to provider of robust and durable all weather tarpaulins and kitbags for rig workers in the North Sea. Using skilled craftspeople and working with 100% waterproof materials, The Montrose Bag Company manufactures to the same high standards to create a complementary range of bags that can tough it out in the most testing of conditions. Over the last forty years countless offshore workers have come to depend on us for the specialised kit bags, backpacks, and other equipment they need to enable them to do their jobs safely and skilfully. But it’s not only oil industry professionals who value what we do. Time and time again we were asked to make our unique range of durable, versatile and reliable bags available to a wider audience. And so having invested in new cutting-edge technology we launched The Montrose Bag Company which builds on four generations of heritage and experience. Using the same skilled craftsmanship, the same tried and tested materials and the same passion for perfection, we’ve extended our range to include bags and luggage that everyone will be proud to own. From shoppers to totes, backpacks to holdalls we manufacture everything here at our headquarters in Scotland for export all over the world. From rucksacks to holdalls, travel bag to totes, The Montrose Bag Company has got your luggage needs covered. Both offshore and onshore there really is no better bag.

Great bag and fast delivery
Great bag and fast delivery, I received a message when I placed my order that it could take a while as many of the bags are made to order. However, 5 days later the bag was delivered. I bought the Lee Day Rucksack in lime green for work, it's very simple and robust, and perfect for work, I can fit my uniforms, a thermos and water bottle, with work documents, and several pouches with chargers, toiletries etc inside. The zippers are fantastic. I'm from Scotland but currently out of necessity I work in London. I carry my backpack with it's prominent "Made in Scotland" label proudly on show when commuting. Cannot recommend the Montrose Bag Company highly enough, I know I'll be going back to them in future as the need arises.

The quality is great but I have a few issues with the carry handles and shoulder strap
The quality is great and plenty of space and really good quality waterproof fabric used.
But I did think there’d be a Velcro securing strap on the handles to keep them together and the shoulder strap isn’t detachable which can be a problem with some airlines when travelling internationally.

All features of the bag in question are clearly described on the website.
