Meet Carlisle

For more than 25 years, Carlisle Paddles has been building quality paddles and oars, becoming one of the most recognized names in paddle sports. From its origins in Michigan along the AuSable River, Carlisle was born out of a desire to make quality paddles that are long-lasting. By developing a close relationship with outfitters, Carlisle paddles were made to suit their specific needs. We were proud to begin our relationship with Carlisle back in 1990. And, today, with our joint endeavors stronger than ever, we know that whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned pro, Carlisle paddles and oars will help you navigate your Old Town watercraft through your next adventure.
