Panniers or Pack Bags

 

A "set" of Alforjas Bags or Panniers

 

NOTE:  Special abrasion proof fabric on sides and bottoms of pack bags

 

 

 

NOTE:  Divers Belt:  Won't twist going through the buckle when wet!

 

 

NOTE:  Dowels in hem.

 

 

NOTE:  Reflective tape enables the packer to see if his loads are balanced after dark

NOTE:  Camlock Buckles

NOTE:  For packers with cold fingers. Hooking a scissors snap with a gloved hand and pulling down, (just like our hay cover apparatus), tightens the lids.

NOTE:  30oz Iron Cloth™ means way more years of wear than canvas.

It won't rip out when a sharp stick along the trail jabs it

 

 

Heavy duty 2 inch camlock buckles enable one person to pull on both straps, thus pulling both bags away from the horse's side.
 

 

 

All bags include very heavy-duty snaps so when they bang against a tree in cold weather, they won't break!

 

 

 

 

 

Seams are reinforced heavily on back side to prevent seam rip outs.

 

 

 

 

All bags include an extra inner pouch into which one inch of closed cell foam pad is inserted. This helps prevent "soring" a horse!
 

 

 

Western Saddle Pannier or Flop Over Pannier

You may have to walk into camp leading your horse, but once your camp gear is unloaded you have a saddle horse to ride. This is for the recreational packer who, like me, is short on horse power. This set of very heavy duty bags "flops over" a western saddle, decker, or sawbuck. They are built the same way our previous set of alforjas bags are built except we sew 10,000 lb webbing in the high stress, rip out area across the top (pommel and cantle).

A "flop-over" pannier (see below) saves one from purchasing a pack saddle!

Beginning packers will often ask us "why are these pack bags built so heavy duty?"

I started packing with the "cheap stuff" 30 years ago. I soon learned that when you load 90lbs of gear in each side bag and they jog up and down and sideways a thousand times a day the seams always rip out. This ruins a pack trip! If you invest in quality gear you will save yourself a hundred headaches!

 

 

NOTE:  10,000lb trucker's web reinforces the susceptible rip-out area!

 

 

 

 

Panniers are available without lids if so desired.

 

 

Deluxe Saddle Bag

Manufactured from extremely durable 30oz Ironcloth

Front View

Fleece plus 1/2 inch felt offer added kidney protection for your horse.

Unsnap scissor snaps to remove saddle bag from horse. Re-snap again to attach saddle bag. No tying or un-tying.
 

Like all IronclothProducts, here's a saddle bag that should last a lifetime!            Alan Greenway

Side View


Right bag has small interior elastic pouches for smaller tools. (See photos on "cantle bag" site.)

Left bag has larger elastic interior loop pouches for binoculars, range finders, first aid kits, etc. These Elastic pouches keep your "stuff" from banging around inside the saddle bag.

Webbing with camlock buckles allows for cinching down raincoats, tents, coveralls, etc. These "cinch down" straps can be removed with scissor snaps on both ends.

 

Right Bag

Left Bag

 

Left bag has larger interior elastic pouches for first aid kits, range finders, binoculars, etc.

 

 

Our latest improvement has elastic pouches on top of each bag for water bottles, cameras, etc. We have now replaced all plastic snaps on both the saddle bag and cantle bag with metal snap/buckles. (Exactly as shown, but metal - not plastic). When your saddle bag hits a tree in cold weather the plastic snaps will disintegrate. You will eventually be glad we used 30oz Ironcloth from which the saddle bag is manufactured because a sharp stick along side the trail will eventually jab your saddle bag. If the bag is made of cordura, ballistic cloth, or heaby canvas the sharp stick will definitely rip the side out of your saddle bag. Thirty ounce Ironcloth is virtually bullet proof! As with all Ironcloth products, this saddle bag will last a lifetime!

 

Rifle Scabbards or Saddle Scabbards

Ever wonder why your gun gets rusty on a hunting trip? Part of the reason is because most scabbards are lined with closed cell foam. This is good for padding a scope, but closed cell foam is not breathable, thus your gun sweats and gets rusty. Whether it's a human being in a tent or a rifle in a scabbard, the fabric must be breathable! We manufacture our rifle scabbards using the following four layers:

 

 

The four scabbards on the left are standard scoped models - made with extra room so when you need to pull your gun out fast, there is no hang up. The four scabbards on the right are "bipod" models. We also manufacture a model for "lever action" guns and a model for extended length barrels.

 

 

The photo to the left shows the same 8 scabbards as in the photo above, but after the lights are out. This allows a hunter the chance to find his horse after dark with only a pen light.
 

 

We manufacture 5 models of saddle scabbards

Scabbards come with or without reflective tape.

Bipod Model shown

Contender Pistol Shoulder Holster
Water-proof / Breathable


Will accommodate 22" barrels and scopes.







Shoulder strap is adjustable so that the holster can be carried higher (just under the shoulder) or lower as shown in this photo to the right.

Reverse Scabbard

 

 

 

 

 

 

If your tired of your rifle coming home rusty, we've got the solution for you.  Because we don't use closed cell foam, like most other manufacturers, our scabbards breathe.  Closed cell foam is non-breathable, thus a wet rifle sweats and cannot dry itself out.  Your scope will also get foggy if the scabbard is made with closed cell foam.  With our 4-layer water-proof / breathable manufacturing process, your rifle cannot get wet from horse sweat or rain, yet it allows a wet gun to dry out.

The rear attachment strap is longer than the front strap allowing the lower end (barrel end) of the scabbard to hang lower as shown in the photo A above.  Photo B shows a reverse attachment for another carry option (reverse scabbard).

This scabbard is designed around my 300 magnum with a 50mm scope and a "tear drop" see through mounting ring, so I can also see my open sights should the scope fog up.  This means that there is about one inch more width built in the scabbard than it appears.  When you need to bust open the velcro overflap and pull your rifle out fast - it comes out easily.  It does not bind up!

Ironcloth™ Gun Cases

Cantle Bags

These larger volume bags fit behind your cantle (back of saddle). I suppose a stupid person could overload a horse, but the bag directly behind the cantle is meant for sleeping bags, coveralls, coats, etc. Twenty years ago I made this mistake of placing a set of binoculars in this bag. (Very Dumb!) The binoculars jarred up and down a thousand times a day until I sored the horse. Well, I won't do that again, but someone else will. That's why we sew not only fleece, but a layer of felt both on the bottom and sides (see photo below).

Set of 3 extra cam-lock straps allow packer to slip coats, coveralls, tents, etc. underneath. One can pack in an entire spike camp and still ride your horse.

 

 

 

Rear View of Cantle Bag

 

 

 

 

 

 

The left bag includes larger elastic constraints for such items as binoculars, range finders and first aid kits. The right bag utilizes smaller elastic holders for hoof picks, flashlights, leather punches, etc. This system keeps your "stuff" from banging against itself. (Might just save a flashlight bulb!)

 

 

 

Left bag has larger elastic holds.

 

 

 

 

 

Right bag holds smaller tools.

 

 

 

 

This cantle bag is designed "low profile" so one can easily swing his or her leg over in mounting or dismounting your horse, yet the bag is large enough to hold a large sleeping bag! The plastic snaps shown in this photo have now been replaced with metal snaps so they won't break when the side bag hits a tree in cold weather. The Ironcloth from which the cantle bag is manufactured will not rip, as will Cordura, when jabbed with a sharp stick along side the trail!


 

 

 

 

Just attach or release the cantle bag with the scissor snaps.
