The Tip is 'Labeling Tip 1' Know Your Labeling - For products Made in America, the greater the US content the more American jobs required to produce it. So whenever possible choose the product with the highest percentage of U.S.content. US content must be disclosedon Made in USA textiles, automobiles, wool, and fur products. There is no law requiringmost other products to be marked or labeled made in USA, or, have any otherdisclosure about their amount of U.S. content. Those manufacturers and marketers who choose to make claims about the amount of U.S. content must comply with the FTC's Made in USA policy. Note: Imported products must have the country of origin on their label whileproducts partially Made in USA do not. For a product produced in the U.S. to be labeled made in USA, or claimed to beof domestic origin without qualifications or limits on the claim, the product must be all or virtually all made in the U.S. This would mean that all significant parts and processing that go into the product are of U.S. origin. The product should contain no (or negligible) foreign content. Made in the USA products create the greatest number of American jobs for our country. This is because the labor to produce the product, and the raw materials that go into the product, are created with American labor. For most products, there is no law requiring made in America labels, or any other disclosure about the amount of U.S. content. However, for job creation purposes if you have a choice between an imported product and one with no country of origin on the label, choose the product without a country of origin over the imported one. The product without the country origin on its label has some American labor in its content and the imported one most likely does not.

WSI Women is a line for women created by WSI Sports, a manufacturing company that has been making performance apparel for 20 years. It all started with Joel Wiens from Windom, MN. who wanted to improve the comfort of his hockey jock. His innovative ideas lead to new technologies for fabrics that best comfort the athlete. Wiens, the owner and founder of WSI Sports, began working out of his garage until he relocated to Eagan, Minn. The inspiration for WSI Women came from Priscilla Magana the owner of Priscilla's Apparel. Priscilla shared one vision with Joel, that is to utilize US technologies, save American jobs and keep manufacturing alive in the United States of America. Priscilla's Apparel merged with WSI to design an active line for Women. Women can now enjoy functional fabrics, comfort and feel amazing about their female physique. With Pride, WSI Women is entirely hand-crafted in the United States! Our Elite gear for active women is designed out of our top quality fabrics, Pro Wikmax?, Wikmax?, and HEATR?. Our latest innovation, The New HEATR? technology is a fiber knitted into our apparel with a thermal effect causing your blood vessels to dilate which allows oxygen to the blood faster, giving you warmth that stimulates your muscles and increases blood circulation. When worn during exercise the HEATR? technology helps increase sweating, by retaining heat and helping you burn fat and loose inches faster than normal clothing.
