The American Jacket Company is a premium sportswear line inspired by America's tradition of political participation. The American Jacket Company is proudly designed and manufactured in the United States.
To wear our clothes and to support our company is to support the American Dream. With each purchase of our highest-quality American Jacket Company items, you are supporting American jobs, the U.S. manufacturing industry, and a resurgence in Made-in-America consumer pride. We believe that supporting U.S. workers and companies isn't a political value ? it's an American one.
Currently, 98 percent of the clothing purchased in this country is imported. That's millions of jobs and billions of dollars that could be contributing to the U.S. economy. The good news is that small changes to our spending habits can make a big impact. It's estimated that if every American spent just $64 on American-made products this holiday season, we could create 200,000 new American jobs. With the launch of The American Jacket Company collection, we're calling on consumers to be a force for change.
We're serious about supporting American jobs ? but we're having a bit of fun with partisan politics here too. Each American Jacket company product can discretely bear the political logo of your choice, so you can proudly wear all your politics right on your sleeve!
Here is my story?
In the fall of 1947, my parents Gladys and Theodore Sadaka opened their first factory in New York City's garment district. My sister and I grew up in and around the factory and formally joined the business in the early 1970s. Back then, we operated with 200 employees, but due to the avalanche of imports in recent decades, we've faced many difficulties and have today downsized the business to just over 50 employees.
Our American Jacket Company collection will maintain and create new American jobs, but also engage politicians in a discussion about the importance of a strong domestic manufacturing industry. I believe that the movement to bring clothing manufacturing back to the U.S. is bigger than just the American Jacket Company. It's going to take consumer awareness and political will. That's why we're offering products that bear the symbols of each political party: we're challenging lawmakers to wear their politics on their sleeve and support this essential American value of home-grown, quality jobs for hard-working Americans.
Republican or Democrat, we can all agree on the importance of buying American.
The following is a reply from The American Jacket Company to our question – "Are your products American Made?"
How do you know the products you have listed are Made in the USA?
Before including products in our database we review the advertiser’s website and/or contact them to ascertain the origin of their products. Some advertisers sell both Made in USA products and foreign ones. Therefore we highly recommend you review FAQ 2.
We immediately investigate any complaints regarding deceptive Country of Origin claims. If we determine an advertiser's claim is not truthful we will immediately remove the product/s from our database and suspend our relationship with the Company making the claim.
To document your complaint, email us by using our Contact Us page. We can only respond to complaints that have been submitted in writing.
What does Made in USA mean?
There is no law requiring most products to be labeled Made In USA, or have any other disclosure about the amount of U.S. content. However, for job creation purposes (see our Big Secret tab), if you have a choice between an imported product and one with no country of origin on its label, choose the product without a country of origin over the imported one. This is true because the product without the country origin on its label has at least some American labor in its content and the imported one most likely does not.
Note: Imported products are required by law to country of origin on their label and products partially Made In USA do not. To answer this question completely reviewing our Labeling Tips 1, 2 & 3. These tips are accessible from scrolling to the bottom of our home page clicking Browse All Tips button.
