Introducing our travel gear supporter! We’re happy to have the fine folks at Magellan’s Travel Supplies as a partner for the duration of our “Fabric of America” tour. They’re supplying us with apparel, accessories, and more as we roam around the USA.
In case you haven’t read about our tour: You can read about it here, read about sponsorships here, and support our project yourself right here.
This is an introductory post about Magellan’s Travel Supplies. We will be reviewing the products they’ve provided us throughout our journey, which wouldn’t be possible without them (and you).
If you’re a longtime traveler, you’ve probably heard of Magellan’s. They produce their own line of products, and also carry products from other top-notch manufacturers.
While they’re based in Santa Barbara, California, and have a store there, most people who’ve been around the block – er, globe – a few times probably know them for their mail order services.
We’ve been customers and fans for a very long time. In fact, I remember eagerly anticipating their paper catalog in the mail, long before the days of online ordering. I used to love stocking up on adapters and other gear by flipping through the catalog and calling in an order.
Over the past nearly quarter decade since they started, that has all changed. Nowadays, they have quite a large website that more easily gets goods to hungry travelers like us, and an additional retail outlet in Santa Monica.
When we were planning for our “Fabric of America” adventure, Magellan’s was one of the first on our list. As longtime clients, we knew we wanted them on our side as we traverse this great nation. Fortunately for us, they were excited about the prospect and came aboard as our official travel gear sponsor. Woo-hoo!
Below is a list of gear they hooked us up with for our adventure – you can click any image or title to read more about an item and pick one up for yourself. We’ll be using, abusing, and reviewing all of these throughout the trip, so stay tuned for much, much more!
