Quality American made companies you are proud of?????

[LiveFree79]

Forgive me if this is in the wrong forum but another thread got me thinking........what are some products you purchase or have purchased that make you proud to be an American and are made in this country?

I'll start........being an avid outdoorsmen there are tons.....

Western Mountaineering
Filson (used to be 100% of their clothes were made in US not so I dont think anymore)
Danner boots (same as Filson, used to be 100% MIA)
Mystery Ranch backpacks. www.mysteryranch.com

Other than outdoor equipment I can't think of many things that I buy on a yearly basis that are MIA anymore. I will say things that are still made in this country are amazing products. Take the examples I posted. Filson clothing when they were 100% made in the USA are quality clothing that would last you a lifetime. Same thing with Danner boots. Mystery Ranch backpacks are amazing quality and durability. When we Americans do build something (guess I can't say automobiles) we usually build things of superior quality.

My springfield armory M1A is sitting inside a Filson rifle case right now. I think that's some pretty high quality American products.

I've always been fond of my Zippo.

 

[LiveFree79]

LOL Zippo and Filson is that all we got? I don't think a lot of people probably realize how much or how little is actually made in this country.

Snap On?

I thought Caterpillar was now making stuff overseas no?

 

[LiveFree79]

Oh and American Standard has many parts that are made overseas. So not really made in America.

I believe Saucony running shoes are made in Maine.

SAS walking shoes are made in Texas.
