MADE IN USA: THE 30DAY CHALLENGE

We have all seen the “Made in the USA” brand. Does this brand really mean anything to people nowadays? This feature documentary, “Made in the USA: The 30 Day Journey”, is an epic journey into the heart and soul of America. After witnessing the tragic effects caused by a factory shutdown in his hometown of Ravenswood, WV, Josh Miller takes off across the country for 30 days to discover the answer to this question.   

 

MADE & WORN

Made & Worn is a blog dedicated to sensible and conscientious fashion. You can look good without feeling bad about it, and I'm here to show you how. 

I'll be spending the next year only buying clothes and accessories made in the good ol' U. S. of A. In the process, I'll share with you where you too can find awesome American made products, why you should consider buying locally, and why buying all American made may not actually be such a good idea for everyone. \u200B

MODERN FELLOWS

What we like best about the Modern Fellows is that they recognize the fact that a new generation of American entrepreneurs are working to supply the necessary items to help guys dress their best. From online custom suit-makers to American-made necktie designers to start-up flash sale sites, entrepreneurs and innovators are taking advantage of new technologies and making it easier and more enjoyable to look sharp. They emphasize Made in USA products as well as tradesman who create them.
