The Tip is 'Made In America Secrets' We needed some new towels recently and I remembered coming across your website. I thought I would give it a quick search to see if there were any Made in America towels sold nearby. It just so happened that when I did the search, I found there was a nearby reseller listed who carried the particular Made in the USA towels I wanted. We bought the towels and, not surprisingly, they are both more absorbent and better looking than I thought. Made in America Secrets has thousands of products made in America offered by hundreds of small manufacturers. These small companies are a big contributor to our economy. According to one study small businesses (those employing 1 to 99 employees) comprise 98% of all the USA businesses. That's equivalent to 5.8 million businesses employing over 40 million people. Most American's are unaware of how significant small business is when compared to the total size of the US economy. This website is aware of it and that is why 99% of the businesses that advertise on Made in America Secrets are small businesses. I now use this site to search for small companies especially since more than likely it is a small company that employs someone I know- my wife, my children, my friends. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Flint and Tinder MADE IN AMERICA Ralph/Calvin/Tommy, the big boys, they're not who you think. Most of the things bearing their logos are made under license by companies you've never heard of like Li and Fung, PVH and Warnaco, who make garments as cheaply as possible on the other side of the globe. Flint and Tinder is different. We're manufacturing greatness here - in the USA - in as transparent a way as possible. BUILT TO LAST We're not just making things in America, we're making things better. We stand behind our products. So keep an eye out out for frequent use of the words Satisfaction Guaranteed, or product specific promises--as with the 10-Year Hoodie, which comes with an entire decade of free mending (not that you'll necessarily need it). It's all part of our Buy Less, Get More thinking. You're going to like it. CHANGING THE GAME We're all working really hard to make sure you're satisfied. We're going to bend over backwards to make things right, no matter what. The plan is this: By raising expectations, eventually even the bigger brands will play by the same rules, or they'll be forced to go the way of the dinosaurs. Either way, we win! APRIL 2012 Did you know that 99% of the men's underwear sold in America comes from, well, places like China, Indonesia and Thailand? Flint and Tinder launched on Kickstarter with a pledge to change that, build a better product than you're used to and help revive the American cut and sew industry. MAY 2012 5,578 people supported us in attempting to bring back high quality garment manufacturing by pre-purchasing $291,499 worth of underwear. Flint and Tinder becomes the best funded fashion Kickstarter to date. We could not be more appreciative. OCT 2012 Flint and Tinder launches FlintAndTinderUSA.com website. Zappos' Tony Hsieh and Fred Mossler sign on as advisors. Esquire names Flint and Tinder one of the 10 Best New Online Men's Shopping Sites. Pretty cool, right? MAR 2013 Flint and Tinder launches the 10-Year Hoodie, a premium sweatshirt designed for life, guaranteed for a decade and backed with FREE mending Kickstarter's first ever fashion project to raise more than $1 million dollars from 9,226 backers pre-buying more than 11,000 hoodies. NOV 2013 Flint and Tinder fires up The Bluelace Project an attempt to give American manufacturing it's own yellow ribbon with the help of a lace unlike any other, manufactured by one of the just two domestic shoelace manufacturers still standing. 11,749 people lend a hand.
