American Made Clothing for Women

I am on a quest to find stylish women’s clothing made in the USA.  After several weeks of searching online, it’s become an obsession because there seem to be very few choices available. As an example, a search for “American made clothing” on Google will result in plenty of options for utility clothing, (mostly due to government contracts), solid-colored tee’s or tee shirts with a red, white and blue flag print, sweatshirts, chinos and the like. All a bit too Americana or otherwise bland as bland gets.   Not exactly vogue!

This is disheartening for me because I want to support the U.S. economy and am willing to pay more for goods that are made here.  I imagine that many others would as well. It would be a treat to have that option as opposed to being duped by scam sites that list goods that may or may not arrive from some far-off fraudulent location. 

So, what happened, why aren’t we popping out the goods? 

Here are the clothing stores that I came across so far that are actually producing and can be classified as American made. For the purpose of this article, I am only referring to women’s apparel.  I am also asking for recommendations to add to this list so that we can pass this information on to folks that are on a like-minded quest. 

American Giant
Good quality casual goods for men and women

Earth Creations
Eco-friendly, clay dyed clothing made from sustainable fibers such as organic cotton and hemp.

Groceries Apparel

  • I'm not quite sure when my love of cool gadgets and technology fully formed...but I must admit it has become somewhat of an addiction. The addiction spans from collecting kitchen gadgets to online tools that at the moment are a must until the next faster, prettier, thing comes along. This week’s example of what caught my attention and “a must-have” was at an online ...

  • My husband and I planned a cross-country road trip to Florida from Denver, CO.  We planned this drive to visit family, but truth be told, mostly to break the monotony that COVID has imposed on our lives.  Yes, safety first, but off we went!  I mention this trip in the context of having to pack weather-appropriate, semi-casual, and versatile clothing for hot weather.  In this regard, ...

  • A funny thing happened to me on the way to school. Ok, not on the way to school, but a funny thing did happen. Years ago my dad would take us to soccer games and Kung Fu movies. This and the beach were in his wheelhouse of "fun" activities. Not complaining, we got to see Pele play for the Cosmos on numerous occasions, eat a lot of NY pizza, and kick back with Bruce Lee ...
