Duluth Pack (company)

The Duluth Pack company is the most famous manufacturer and supplier of Duluth pack style packs.〔John Meyers, ("Duluth Pack celebrates 100 years" ), ''Duluth News Tribune'', July 16, 2011, MPR News, Minnesota Public Radio. Retrieved April 2013.〕 They also produce and sell a range of other products, especially other bags and accessories built in the style of their packs. The company grew out of the shoe repair business started by Camille Poirier in 1870. He patented the #3 Duluth pack in 1882 and later sold the canoe pack business to an outdoor supply store in downtown Duluth, Minnesota, where it is still located. The company is now run by Mark Oestreich.
==History==
The Duluth pack was invented by a French-Canadian named Camille Poirier, who went west to Duluth in 1870. Arriving with his "little stock of leather and tools", he began a small shoe store and quickly found success in what was then a booming frontier town.〔Sheldon Aubut's Duluth History - (Autobiography of Camille Poirier ). Retrieved April 2013.〕 Out of his small shoe shop on the waterfront, Poirier began building a new style of canoe pack with a tumpline, sternum strap, and umbrella holder. He patented the design in 1882. The original #3 Duluth Packs have changed little since then, and came to be extensively used on wilderness canoe camping trips, giving prominence to both the name of the pack and the company. In 1911, Poirier sold off the canoe pack business to Duluth Tent and Awning on West Superior Street in downtown Duluth. In the 1920s, as America began its love affair with the automobile and auto camping became all the rage, Duluth Pack built "auto packs" that would clamp to the running boards of the car to hold extra gear. In some ways these were forerunners of RVs. The company has since grown globally and started joint ventures with Barney's in New York, Urban Outfitters, and other prominent companies.
