As coach of a competitive Midget
AA Girls Hockey program, looking like a team is only
second to playing like team. And part of looking
like a team was team hockey bags. When I started
looking to have them made, I could not find anyone whot
would customize them to fit our team colors. I found
Tony's Canvas and Leather. Not only could Tony
deliver the bags with our team colors, he actually
manufactured them himself ..... no cheap material, no
cheap zippers. We wanted the bags for a tournament
in a few weeks and Tony delivered on time, as promised.
The girls love their new bags. They are roomy,
lightweight, have an extra storage pocket and look
great!

Tony,
I only had time to open the one box and the top bag I
pulled out #15 looks great. I took it to the board
members and it is everything that we expected.
Great Job!!! That is what all the guys said. One
of the men on our board had a conversation with another
business dude and your name came up about repairing
hockey gloves. They were playing golf and did not know
each other. Just a hockey conversation about Tony
up in New York and how he just mailed a check to you
that same day. What a small world, he said, that was.
We really appreciate the great job you did on the bags
and the timely delivery of all the goods. Thanks again.

Tony,
Loved the bag! " I ordered a West Virginia team hockey gear
bag for my brother and it turned out awesome. Tony was very
helpful in the planning process and the product turned out
great. I was most impressed with the logo work. I only had a
small web logo for him to work with, but he blew up without
distortion and it looks fantastic. I would highly recommend
him to anyone."

We looked everywhere for custom
lacrosse bags for our high school team. I was hesitant
ordering custom bags sight unseen but Tony delivered exactly
what we ordered on time and the players love them.

Tony did an excellent job on our gloves. He brought new
life into our lacrosse gloves with excellent craftsmanship
and extremely quickly . The work is some of the best quality
I have ever seen. In today economy where budgets are tight
you get the most out of your spending if you go to Tony. His
work is unmatched and the quality of material in some cases
is better than the original material. I would recommend Tony
for all you Canvas Sports bags and leather repairs.

I like the bags a lot...they look great, very strong
material. I can't wait until the girls see them. They'll
be excited. Thanks for your help.

I contacted Tony to make 20 hockey bags for my son’s
Hockey Team. We needed heavy duty, large bags to accommodate
both regular players and goalie equipment. We also wanted a
bag that would last hopefully all four years. We’d never
ordered custom bags before and we were a little nervous. But
the bags were extra roomy, quality workmanship and extremely
durable. Even the coaches bags we also ordered have been
great for pucks and coaches equipment. Plus, his work is
guaranteed, “rip it, and he’ll stitch it.”

Tony,
The Buffalo Sabres bag arrived Friday. It looked amazing! I took
it to the birthday party and it was the only gift that got
passed around because everyone wanted to see it! Great job. That
was the first time that I have ever ordered something online
without actually seeing the finished product first and I was a
little nervous, but you far exceeded my expectations! Thanks so
much.
Amy, Buffalo NY
Tony did a fantastic job for our Hockey team
bags! Quality bags with plenty of room and heavy duty zippers
are a must for team bags and Tony delivered! Even the Logos were
perfect and the bags were ready ahead of time so our high School
team had them for the beginning of the season. Quality, service,
timeliness, and eye catching are how I would describe these
bags. I won’t hesitate calling Tony next year when we need to
fill a team Jersey Bag order!!! Thanks Tony!

I contacted Tony originally about a bag for my son's
birthday which came out beautifully, he loved it! From there I
ordered embroidered sweatshirts and winter hats for the drivers
at work, Tony's customer service and the quality of his work
once again proved to be excellent! I will definitely be placing
more orders in the future, both for myself and for work.

"Tony worked with me to get exactly what I wanted and
delivered our team great looking Jersey Bags, that are
well made and going to hold up to many years of use."

Tony,
High quality Bat bags, great old-time look, and fast
delivery. Couldn't ask for more. Thanks.

"I contacted Tony about getting a
bag made for my son. I wanted the bag black with a gray strap
because it would go with his current team. Not only did Tony do the
hockey bag like I asked he also added the teams logo and name. Tony
kept me aware of what was going on the whole time and when the bag
would ship. The hockey bag arrived in less time than expected and
the quality is evident as soon as I opened the box. This bag will
last forever, it's that well made and it looks exactly like our
teams except it's better. My son plays midget U18 hockey and he's
played since he was 6. I can't count how many bags we've been
through but he won't wear this one out!
I've told everyone in our organization about Tony's Canvas and
Leather. If you want the best bag
out there, a quick turn around, and great customer service, you
won't go wrong calling Tony".

Tony,
This is a note to let you know how impressed I was with our latest
order of sweatshirts from you. I want to thank you again for your
superb work on the sweatshirts you did for the junior high. I have
partnered with you since 2000 when you made t-shirts for the Massena
Summer College for Kids. You have a remarkable craftsmanship. Your
degree of talent and perfection is extraordinary! Each time
that I have ordered shirts from you the quality and designs gets
more impressive. I know this requires a tremendous effort as well as
commitment to your work. I am very proud to be associated with
your company and I know the junior high will continue to partner
with your company. Best wishes for continue success. Thank you!

Tony,
We LOVE the bags. Quality craftsmanship at an affordable price.
Can't go wrong!! Thanks again for working so hard over the holidays
to get those out to us!!

Tony,
I'm writing to thank you for our recent order -- and to let you know
how absolutely thrilled we are with the hockey jersey bag! Ordering
from such a distance (Chicago to New York), over email/internet, was
a bit intimidating--especially for a special order that included a
custom design. You calmed any uneasiness with your professional
approach and quick responses. The proofs you provided were exactly
what we discussed and the final product was more than we imagined!
The workmanship is just as you described--one of the strongest bags
I've ever seen with attention to detail in every aspect. My son
absolutely loves his jersey garment bag and is so proud to carry it
with his hockey bag, he doesn't let anyone else carry it! Thank you
for a wonderful experience!

Tony, I want to thank you for your excellent customer service.
You met and exceeded our organizations needs for jersey bags. You
had great ideas and were extremely prompt completing our project.
The materials you use are also second to none. The on line
communication in which you conduct your business is awesome. If
anyone needs a reference for your work, please feel free to give
them my email address. Thanks again for the pride you took in our
work... it shows in the quality.

Dear Tony:
The purpose of my note is to formally thank you for a job well
done. The coaches for Team Maryland made a challenge to their
players that they must earn the right to play hockey through first
their hard work and dedication to getting good grades in school. So,
we told the guys whoever gets honor role or goes up one complete
grade average, we will honor them with a prize
at the end of the year. We came to you for ideas and your
customer service and insight is outstanding. We asked you to make 10
custom sports bags and I have just received them in the mail - They
are the best ! I ordered a hockey bag as well as skate guards and
they are fantastic. Thank you, Tony, for your customer service, your
quick attention and great product. You made me feel like
family !

Tony's Canvas recently made me a new Cockpit Cover for my 23'
Chapparral IO. It was done in a very timely fashion and,
perfectly honest, it was made with a better design than the original
one I bought with the boat. Tony did a great job and reasonably
priced too!!

Tony handled a very large order of Embroidered Jackets for our company. He
was able to
complete it quickly and the product looked great!

Hi Tony,
When our High School Science class was asked to provide a flag to accompany
Clarkson University's expedition to Antarctica I immediately thought of Tony's
Canvas.
He made us a beautiful and extremely durable flag that flew above the
ice-pack at the bottom of the world.
Both Tony's flag design and workmanship were superb, and he even donated the
Flag to our School.
We'll proudly display our Massena/Antarctic flag in our school for many
years to come.
Good work and thanks again.

Dear Tony: Thank You, the gloves arrived today and they
look fantastic. You did a bloody good job! You gave new life to a
pair of second-hand gloves! They are like new again!

Tony: This Motorcycle Tool Rollup Bag was made exactly
to my specifications! Beautiful and at a good price! It's just what
I wanted. I've got a buddy that will be contacting you soon to
have one made for him.

Tony has certainly been a huge help to us. The
high quality of his repair work along with affordable pricing has
allowed us to spend money in other needed areas. We have had
Tony make custom bags for us along with the repairs and he gets high
grades from me every time! Thanks Tony, we look forward to a long
relationship!!

Tony the bag is great, nice detail and quality, and you sent
it out so quick. It should get high bids at our Booster auction.
Thank you for your donation.
Nicole, Fayetteville-Manlius Football Boosters
I needed an old baseball glove replaced and in my small town.
There was no one that offered those services. I Googled "restitch
Baseball glove" and Tony's bags, canvas & leather was a choice.
After a simple email and short conversation with tony, I knew I
Found someone I could trust and whose passion was his work. His work
was timely, the quality was excellent and his price was ridiculously
low. I know where to go now and who to refer others to.
Gary Foose, Lake Jackson, TX
Folks Believe me when I tell you...Tony’s Canvas is the very
best at what he does, repairing leather products. My son’s baseball
glove was heading to the trash until I found Tony’s Canvas. His turn
around time is excellent and if you have any questions just give him
a call. My son’s glove came out excellent and he could not believe
it himself. Make the investment with Tony and you will gain many
more years with your product. Thanks a MILLION Tony!!
Lou DePatto, Boston MA
A special thanks to Tony's Canvas for repairing our tent.
Tony donated his time and expertise at no charge to the Massena Elks
Lodge.

As an avid outdoorsman and Licensed Guide, my gear takes more
than its share of use and abuse. Tony's repairs breathe new
life into old gear that would otherwise have to be replaced.
And the modifications he is able to incorporate make the gear more
functional than when it was new!! Thanks again, Tony.
Tom Romeo, NYS # 3105
I used the ski bag you made a bunch of times this year.
I was quite impressed with it. It definitely stands up as well
and probably better than most anything I could buy from a big ski
company at the same price or for more.
Ethan Townsend, Head Nordic Ski Coach, St.
Lawrence University
Tony is a real money saver! Now even high
end hockey gloves come with paper thin palms that seem to ware out
overnight . It is good to know that Tony can repalm these gloves
better than new! Turn around time was quick and the workmanship was
second to none . High quality work for a reasonable price. Thanks
Tony!
Lou Lopes , Worcester MA
My team and I were very impressed with the
quality and craftsmanship of the bag's that we purchased through
Tony's Canvas. Not only do the bags look nice, but they have been
durable over time and provide enough room for all the equipment,
including sticks. I would certainly give them very high marks!
Mike Mahoney
Head Coach St. Lawrence
University Lacrosse
We're impressed! Tony made
Red Raider sports bags for our two grandsons. the bags are very good
looking, the quality of the materials used is exceptional and the
workmans is superb! We knew were asking a lot when we hoped he could
have them completed in ten days. Much to our surprise he phoned in
two days!!! We are very fortunate to have him, with his level of
craftsmanship, available. Now we are trying to decide what else we
would like him to make!

If you are looking for a custom-made
product, personalized service plus old world quality all at a
reasonable price....look no further. Tony has provided products for
my business, hockey team and family. He is versatile and
creative...he can make or repair just about anything made of
fabric...be it canvas, leather, vinyl etc. He enjoys his work and
his pride shines through everything he does !
John C. Greene

I went to see Tony to
have a Banner made. He was very helpful. I did not have a design and
he came up with one for me and in the end I was thoroughly impressed
with his work and design. After seeing what he could do with the
banner I went back to see him and had sweatshirts made for my Team.
Tony was able to customize each sweatshirt as well as using higher
quality material. I am completely satisfied with the craftsmanship
Tony does with his products. I would recommend Tony's Canvas to
anyone.

Tony Tanner really likes
his new Hockey Bag and it's really getting noticed by our Hockey
Association. Thanks for the fast turn around time.
Scott Sanderson

Tony has done a great job with our hockey
equipment. His workis 2nd to none in the equipment repair business.
I have been involved in College athletics for over 25 years and the
quality of work by Tony and the convenience of having it picked up
and delivered right to our SUNY Potsdam Campus is a huge plus. The
cost of repair vs. replace has stretched our Budget tremendously
allowing us to provide other essential items necessary to run a
quality program for our athletes.
Glen Thomaris
SUNY Potsdam Men's Hockey
I found Tony when my son was playing in a
tournament at Lake Placid. It has been a few years since, and Tony
has made a few repairs to my sons hockey gear. The repairs are
better than new, the turn around time is fast and the price is fair.
Tony is a rare find in this world. I could not recommend a more
reputable person.
Jeff Kail, Ridgewood, NJ
We have found Tony’s work to be top quality,
affordable and he delivers quickly. We have had a sign put on our
tent which surpassed our expectations and now we have great
visibility at events that we attend. He was great at offering
suggestions as to how to do the sign. He has also done tote bags for
us and people are impressed with the quality and affordability. We
sell them just about as fast as we can get them. We enjoy doing
business with someone local.
Canton Golden Bear Booster Club
"Tony did a great job on re-palming my
favorite pair of gloves. He saved me money and time (breaking in new
ones) with his superior service. Communication was excellent and the
turnaround time was unbeatable, I will be coming back for more!!!
Brian Flanagan, Bay Shore, NY
Tony, I loved the hats. Good job! I will be ordering more
later... and thanks.
Hot Rod Alley, Maui HI.
Tony, the gloves arrived Saturday safe &
sound. Thanks for a great job & I'll be sure to spread the word
around (& show off my gloves!)
Mark St. Pierre, Palo Alto, CA
I was very pleased with the workmanship and
the quality of the replacement palm. You expedited the turnaround
delivery and I would certainly recommend you to my teammates. I
won't send my hockey equipment anywhere else! Thanks Tony!
Brandon Morton, Austin, TX
I run a nursing home and we were looking for
someone to repair some of our nylon and canvas medical equipment. We
have now used him over two dozen times on various pieces of
equipment. His craftsmanship is excellent. The quality of his
materials and the strength of his stitching exceeds others. Fast
service and reasonably priced. Thanks for all you do for us and we
look forward to a continued business relationship.
John M. Bogosian, CEO, St. Regis Nursing Home
I asked Tony if he could design a Soccer bag
with an Italian Flag on one side and an American on the other, with
a Ball pouch on one end. I was very impressed with his work as are
my teammates.
Lucio Imbimbo, Shelton CT
Tony, I received my Hockey Bag and I would like to thank you.
The bag is GREAT!!
Jason Gawronski, PA
I sent Tony the dimensions for my Saddle bags
and he did a really nice job designing them, but I wanted him to
tweak them a little more which he was glad to do for me.
