The Tip is 'Use Search Engines' After putting on several pounds, I had been trying to lose weight and fortunately I was successful. However, I discovered my pants were too loose. I needed several new pair. Having been thinking about the Big Secret I decided to go where I could buy Made In USA jeans. I thought about having to find those jeans and decided I would, follow the advice from the old Yellow Pages ad and "Let My Fingers Do The Walking" Fortunately, today it is even easier because we have Search. I used the most popular Search Engine to locate a Made In USA jean manufacturer. I then used their web site to find a retailer that carried their jeans. For Made In USA clothing "Let Search Engines Do Your Walking". Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Mountain Ridge Gear Mountain Ridge Gear is a classic case of a hobby turned small business. Fifteen years ago I was walking around a fabric store with my wife who was looking for material so she could make a dress for our daughter. I was waiting for her and walking around the store when I noticed some camouflage material and I thought I could save money by making my own hunting clothes. I asked my wife to help me pick out a pattern and material, which she did. She was going to school at night and never had time to sew it for me so I convinced her to show me how to lay out the pattern and use the sewing machine. My first garment wasn't all that impressive but I sewed several articles of clothing and gained more experience each time. Later, I started experimenting by making my own gear. Over the years I've made many bags, packs and accessories. A few years ago some of my friends noticed some of my gear and a few even paid me to make gear for them. After I broke my wife's sewing machine I realized I needed something more heavy duty to support my hobby. I came to the realization that I could pay for my new sewing machine by selling some of my gear and Mountain Ridge Gear was born. scan-102130000.jpg Veteran Owned - Family Run After serving over 22 years in the military I have gained an affinity for rugged, functional gear that is NOT made in China.
