Does Made In The USA Apparel Cost More?

Made In The USA Does Cost More, Here's Why

• Labor wages in America are higher
• Factories hold high standards in America
• Labor laws protect American workers
• Factory expenses (land, lease, taxes, etc.)

So yes, American-made apparel costs more to produce, but those costs are invested back into our own country, our own workers, and our own economy.

If supporting American workers only costs about fifty cents more per shirt, why wouldn't we choose American-made every time?
