The Tip is 'Keep eyes open' After reading an article about items made in America I thought about how many times I make purchases without thinking. I'm usually focused on budget and needs. Prior to reading this article on made in the USA products, I rarely thought about the importance of buying made in USA products. This helps create jobs in our country. 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. When enough people are asking for made in the USA products, more stores will begin to carry products that are made here. This technique does work. I also pick and choose the stores I visit. 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.

Customers and friends started asking where we got our great looking clothing! A business was born. Since 1997 we have designed, tested and redesigned all of our outdoor clothing so that each piece of outerwear is the warmest, most comfortable, best looking, and as functional as can be. They are all locally handmade with the highest quality materials. We use durable, warm Woolrich Wool on the outside and soft comfortable Malden Mills 300 weight polar on the inside. Martexing Original Waxed fabric (waxed canvas like Shackleton) is used for our Nor'easter shells. When You Want It The Way You Want It, Sometimes You Just Have To Make It Yourself.
