yeah pretty sure alpkit custom bags are made in uk, when I spoke to restrap about custom frame bags at bespoked this year they were tentative about them. I think since measurements are so specific etc and they can be a faff to make exactly how someone wants them it can be hard to actually charge how much they need to to make it viable for them (this opinion is 100% from my head and not based on anything but speculation). I suppose maybe because alpkit is a bigger operation and they are seen as more of a budget brand then it's not as big of a deal to them.
