Made to Order. Shipped When It's Right.
Every cover, spray deck, and custom piece is cut and sewn to your order in our Michigan loft. Here's how the process works and what to expect.
Three Steps from Order to Doorstep
When you order custom-sewn gear — covers, spray decks, or splash covers — you'll select a production week at checkout. That's the week your gear enters the queue, and it's the foundation of how we keep our work on schedule and your expectations accurate.
Choose Your Production Week
Available weeks are listed at checkout. Each week has a limited number of slots. When a week fills up, it disappears from the list — so the dates you see are the dates that are genuinely open.
We Cut and Sew Your Gear
Your gear enters production at the start of your selected week. Covers, spray decks, and splash covers each have different production processes, so available weeks may vary by product.
Ships in 10–14 Days
From the start of your production week, expect your gear to ship within about 10 to 14 days. We don't rush it. Every piece is inspected before it goes in the box.
Ordering Multiple Custom Items?
If your order includes items with different production weeks, we ship everything together when the last piece is ready. One box, one shipment, everything arrives at once.
Need items sooner? Place separate orders with separate shipping selections, and each piece ships as soon as it's finished.
In-Stock Items Ship Immediately
Accessories, outfitting gear, and other stock items that show "in stock" on the product page ship right away — no production week required.
Ordering stock and custom items together? Everything ships with the custom gear. For immediate stock delivery, place a separate order.
Shipped When It's Right, Not When It's Fast
We don't keep covers and spray decks on a shelf. Every piece is cut to a specific hull pattern, in the fabric and color you choose, and sewn in our loft after you order it. That means your gear is built for your boat and your specifications — not pulled from a stockroom and hoping for the best.
The wait is the work. And the work is what makes it worth owning.
Sewn in our Michigan loft since 2019. Carrying forward the Original Bag Lady's tradition of protecting hulls for over 45 years.
Hull-Specific Fit
Every cover and spray deck is patterned to a specific canoe or kayak model. No generic sizing, no guesswork, no compromise.
Built to Your Spec
Your cover isn't pulled from a rack. It's cut to your hull pattern, in the fabric and color you chose, with the features you specified. Made-to-order means every piece is built to a specific customer and a specific boat.
Intentional Scale
A small team of six, every one of us trained across every product we make. Your gear moves through fewer hands, with more knowledge behind each one. Nothing gets rushed, nothing gets missed.
