Our Heritage

FOR OVER
40 YEARS

CLC Work Gear was founded in 1983 in Mequon, Wisconsin, with a simple but powerful mission: make tool organization better for working professionals. What began as a small collection of tool pouches and belts has grown into one of North America's most comprehensive work gear brands.

Today, CLC Work Gear operates under the Hultafors Group North America umbrella — a global family of premium professional tool brands that includes Hultafors, SOLID GEAR, Scangrip, and more. This global reach has amplified our ability to invest in design, materials, and innovation while staying true to our American roots.

The Hultafors Group's commitment to quality and professional standards aligns perfectly with CLC's founding philosophy — that working people deserve products built as hard as they work.

COMMITTED TO THE
CRAFTSMAN

We don't design products in boardrooms. We design them on job sites, in workshops, and alongside the professionals who use them every day.

CLC Wild River

FROM TOOL BELTS
TO TACKLE BAGS

CLC's innovation extends beyond the job site. Our Wild River brand brings the same organizational thinking that tradespeople rely on to the fishing and outdoor market. Built on identical quality foundations, Wild River gear organizes tackle as professionally as CLC organizes tools.

This expansion reflects our belief that organizational mastery applies wherever people pursue their passion — whether that's a construction site or a remote lake at dawn.

  • ✓ Tackle storage systems used by professional anglers across North America
  • ✓ Waterproof materials rated for serious outdoor conditions
  • ✓ Same durable construction standards as CLC professional work gear
