    American Made Clothing: The Ultimate Guide To Buying American Made Clothes

    American Made Clothing is clothing that was manufactured in the United States. It’s often associated with quality, style, and value. But how do you know if the clothes you buy were actually made in America? And what should you look for when shopping for American made clothing?

    Know what it means to buy American made.

    If you’re looking for American made clothing, there are several things you should consider before making a purchase. First, make sure the label says “Made in USA.” This indicates that the product was produced in the U.S., not overseas. Second, look at the tag attached to the garment. If it has an embroidered logo, then the manufacturer used domestic labor to produce the item. Third, check the country of origin listed on the tag. If it’s printed in a foreign language, then the company likely uses foreign workers to manufacture its products. Finally, ask yourself whether you would feel comfortable wearing the item. If you wouldn’t wear it because it’s too uncomfortable, then it probably wasn’t made in the U.S.

    Find out why buying American made is important.

    There are many reasons why buying American made is so important. First, it helps support American jobs. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, nearly half (47%) of the nation’s private sector workforce is employed by small businesses with fewer than 500 employees. These companies employ more than two million Americans. In addition, manufacturing provides a significant source of income for rural communities. Manufacturing also supports other industries such as agriculture, transportation, and construction.

    How to Dress for July 4th in All American Style

    Although we're busy getting orders out for Father's Day, we noticed the Fourth of July is nearly here as well.  And if you're like most of us around here, you'll probably be inspired to throw on something red, white, and blue.  Nothing says patriotism like showing up at the barbeque in all your Stars-and-Stripes glory.  But from a style perspective, pulling off red, white, and blue can be tricky.  The color combo works great on the flag, Firecracker Popsicles (my fav), and retro Tommy Hilfiger sweaters (regrettably, not American made).  But it can be done.  You just have to...
