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 Bad Bags You can buy love! Adventurers everywhere love the benefits of the Best American Duffel. Serious travelers have known for decades that soft luggage holds up better under punishing conditions. Fourteen years ago, we founded Best American Duffel and made our first BAD BAGS, determined to explore that idea to the limit-and to manufacture our products right here in Seattle, USA. BAD BAGS are constructed from 1,000-denier CORDURA?, a nylon fabric that despite its brushed-cotton appearance has been generously coated with urethane and DWR (durable water-repellent finish) for abrasion- and water-resistance. Every BAD BAG is double-stitched and seam-taped to resist pressure, both internal (your overstuffed load) or external (beefy baggage handlers). But we don't stop there. We go to extremes. Because you do too. For example, we wrap each bag with seat-belt webbing-the same two-inch, 6,000-pound break-strength nylon that can save your life in an auto accident. This ensures longevity, strength, and uniform weight distribution. We cross-stitch and box-stitch all handles and stress points for extreme durability. A wide, soft leather grip with a snap closure pulls the two main handles together and provides all-weather performance wet or dry. The wide clip-on strap is nicely padded-it coddles, rather than gouges, your shoulders. We could go on and on.and we do, on the Anatomy page, if you want to hear more. OUTSIDE magazine says that no duffel bag is better made than a BAD (Best American Duffel) bag. But isn't a duffel bag just a duffel bag? What's the big deal? |
