About Strapworks
A little history about the Strapworks family
My name is Thomas Foster and my wife Donna, my son Douglas, and I own Strapworks.com.
Sewing straps began with a love for rafting. I founded the rafting program as a sophomore at UC Davis California in 1971. In 1973 Donna and I started Sierra Whitewater Expeditions Rafting Company, taking guests on river trips all over California, Oregon, Washington, and Idaho.
In late 1975, we started Strapworks as our rafting supply company, specializing in straps. We were the first company to truly offer any length and any color for any strap our customers needed. Unfortunately in 1991 our offices were broken into, checkbooks stolen, and bank accounts emptied. The person was caught, but the money was gone, and bankruptcy soon became a reality.

We did our best to take care of our family, driving around at night putting flyers in mailboxes, offering to mow a lawn and fix roofs. That led to 8 years of remodeling contracting while still making straps!
