The Tank Bags Ethos | Why we are called Tank Bags
The name and logo of our multi-use horse saddle & travel bags
Tank Bags, superimposed over the head figure of the world famous Morgan mare Roxy, reflects the identity and style of our durable multi-use bags.
Here’s why we named our bags Tank Bags :
We wanted to make the most durable and useful horse travel bags on the market.
- Purpose driven
- Rugged
- Practical
- Overbuilt, but no extra fluff
- Dependable
- Repairable
- Multi-use
- Flexible fit
- Minimalist
Tank Bags are made for people who want to travel or work by horse with confidence, distinction and style.
Why we chose the picture of Morgan mare Roxy
The bags had to be attractive and appealing, not just functional.
- Loyalty
- Beauty
- Elegance
- Nobility
- Stamina
- Drive
- Gratitude
- Partnership
These are the reasons why we put Roxy as the mascot for our tough-as-nails bags.
Roxy proved her worth hundreds of times over on our two long rides in 2017 thru 2019. She’s a warrior.
Together, our long rides were minimalist.
- One horse
- One man
- Four countries
- Four seasons
- Three years
- Hundreds of great hosts
- Countless memories
Across bustling cities and multi-lane highways, thru jagged canyons, rushing rivers and waterfalls, and above remote mountain passes and arid arid high plains.
We pretty much did it all. And I had altogether too much time to think about what the gear and tack we liked, and what didn’t cut it.
A few years later, and I decided to try and make the best horse saddle bags on the market.
Our saddle bags are made for riding horses with a riding saddle set up.
The big bonus is that our bags are equally useful and elegant on your own back, when you aren’t out and about with your horse…
We ride and wear our bags in the rugged hills of eastern Ontario Canada, for both work and play.
But Tank Bags can go anywhere… and we invite you to try them today.
