If you go to Chrome's site, they are very honest about country of origin on each product. Some stuff is made in the USA. Some stuff from China. The newer USA made bags of mine are very well made. I don't own any Chinese made ones to compare them too.
Ortlieb does rock. My new Packman2 is absolutely incredible. After a lot of soul searching, I chose it over a Chrome backpack. So far, I'm more than happy with my decision.
