Create-Your-Own Steel Footlocker Trunk 32x18x13.5"

Immediately see what your custom footlocker will look like as you create it! It may not be the most stunning process in the digital age of today, but when we first launched this designing tool, it was FAR ahead of its time—so far, that we changed website platforms just so we could do it. We approached a handful of other companies before we found a place established in product customization. However, even THEY didn’t offer an option to deliver what we wanted. It wasn’t easy, but eventually they made it happen for us. They had to invent a new process and essentially created the capability for you to have this personalized experience. Allowing your camper this much personalization and creativity gives them a great sense of ownership not just over their trunk, but their decision to go to summer camp entirely. It’s a proven method in homesickness prevention and gives them the fun and the freedom to decorate their trunk in a way that’s completely unique to them! Watch your child gasp in awe as they unbox the trunk they created digitally, now present in front of them.    We stand behind and on top of our footlockers. Of course there are cheaper options like some rolling luggage or a plastic storage bin, for that matter! But a C&N Trunk is more than just a container for your child's camping gear. It’s a symbol of the summer camp experience—a tangible reminder of the memories made and friendships formed. A camper’s relationship with a customized trunk like this is almost an extension OF themselves! Built of a solid 3/8”, cabinet-grade plywood, we armor our trunks in steel and dress them in nickel-plated hardware including four crush-proof corners and a slew of clamps to provide structural integrity. Other trunk hardware includes the two basic wire loop latches that secure the lid to the base, the center handle and latch, the two double-wide side handles, two back hinges, and the lid stay on the right side which keeps the lid from falling too far back and damaging your trunk or falling down too fast and hurting your hand. This trunk is produced with pure craftsmanship and plated with our traditional steel exterior so you can rest assured that it can take the rugged world of summer camp year after year. It’s an investment that will continue serving your child far into the future. In fact, the trunk YOUR child takes to summer camp could very well be the trunk THEIR child takes to summer camp. Sturdy enough to use as a table, bench, or stepstool, this trunk functions as much more than just storage space. Campers also use their trunks as makeshift dressers, as they tend to ‘live out of’ them throughout their summer stay. As camp expert and co-author of ‘The Summer Camp Handbook’, Dr. Christopher Thurber says on the matter, “You want something really sturdy, not the budget trunk you might get at a big box…store, but something you stand on because that’s what kids will do at camp and they don’t want to fall through.” Our trunks can withstand 800 pounds of pressure! Outside the camp season, this camp trunk makes a cool addition to a bedroom! Store seasonal clothing, valuables, and keepsakes until the next camp season comes around! Like memories of camp, this trunk will last many years into the future for your child to look back on with nostalgia, bring to dorm rooms, first apartments, new homes, and eventually pass on to their children. Our trunks are an investment that your family can use for generations to come…     Traditional U.S. Steel Our trunks boast a steel-clad protective exterior sourced from the historic Rust Belt of western Pennsylvania—a community that was forged around the mighty steel mills of the early 1900s. Our traditional steel exteriors are far more resilient than the vinyl or fabric coverings found on other trunks made today. Yes, steel costs more to make, but our 35 years of experience has shown us that steel is best.

But what size will suit your camper best, specific to his or her camp stay? You’ll want to consider a few different factors before making your decision. First, get the right bed height for the bunks at camp. You might be able to find this on your camp information packet but, if not, don’t be afraid to call up the camp for answers. Generally trunks under 14” work for most camps. Second, consider the amount of camp clothing, gear, and supplies you need to pack. Just because your child is going to camp for three weeks doesn’t mean you need to pack clothes for three weeks, many camps have laundry service. Follow your camp’s packing list. Third, consider what size clothing you’re trying to pack. After all, a dozen Youth Small Tees won’t eat up as much space as a dozen Adult Larges. The lists above will give you a good idea of what can fit inside each of our trunks. We used a combination of Youth Large and Adult Small clothing to create the lists. Our camp trunks are all 32” long and 18” wide, the only difference is in the height of trunks. Companion We designed with size in mind! Our smallest trunk means that it costs the least and weighs the least. It also means that it’s the least expense when travelling on airlines. Most campers that use this trunk attend a camp with very low bed heights or consistently travel to camp via plane.   Happy Camper By far the most popular of our camp trunks, the Happy Camper is the safest choice. Why? Because it works! Sized right for pretty much any camp, the Happy Camper can do no wrong. 75% of our footlocker sales are Happy Campers. It’s also the model for our latest creation, Designer Trunks, which are made with the same size and design of the Happy Camper.   UnderGrad If your camp offers the available space, then the UnderGrad is a great size trunk for you. This trunk fits a bit more gear than the Happy Camper. The additional packing space provides for a little wiggle-room too which makes living out of the trunk a little more convenient.   Graduate If your camp has no height restrictions, then go as big as you can with the Graduate. For campers who are looking forward to a lengthier camp stay at a camp without laundry service, this is the trunk for you. The Graduate also offers excellent future use at school if college is coming up soon after your summer camp days.
