Now I keep my eyes open and I am surprised how easy it is to find American products. It only takes a few seconds to look. Now I make a point when I am shopping to search for made in America brands. By doing so, I'm able to identify more and more what products are made in America. Even with my eyes open to made in USA I can get discouraged. Sometimes store clerks don't know the country of origin which can be frustrating. If this happens use your eyes to find the origin information yourself. Look at the labels and when you find a Made in USA product tell the clerk so the next time they are asked they will know. Also, when the label is not easily seen I use the other made in America buying tips to help me find made in USA. If the store doesn't carry what you are looking for, use Made in America Secrets to find it and tell the manager about your experience at their store.

I do this because I have found that some stores are made in America friendly while others are not. Keep your eyes open for the made in USA label and pretty soon you will be able to identify which products are made in the USA.

Terry Armstrong and Lew Hayden took that adage to heart when they started San Antonio Shoemakers (SAS) back in the 1970s. They put in superb craftsmanship. They put in a passion for perfection and pride of ownership. And, most importantly, they put in unwavering commitment to their vision. That vision was simple. To make the most comfortable, high-quality leather shoes around. As a result of all that our founders put in, what has come out is nearly 40 years of American ingenuity. What started in an old airport hangar on the south side of San Antonio has grown into an international brand. Today and every day we stay true to our founders' vision, proudly handcrafting comfortable and high-quality leather shoes in the USA. Although SAS has grown to be sold around the world, each new pair is treated the same way it was the day we opened our doors for business ? as if it's the only pair we make. |
