The reason many guys are currently searching for an alternative to Carhartt..

[@JayCrash450]

@@PD-we8vf I hate to go down that path but since companies have willingly injected them self’s into the politics of life, I find as a consumer I now am more conscience of such. Consequently, this is the exact reason that I will never buy Carhartt again. The quality and price value was already mediocre, their vaccination policies made it an easy decision

[@wm1958]

@P D everything going on is called Aktivnye Meropriyatiya, look up Yuri Bezmenov if you don't know who he was, there's a video still around where he is being interviewed by Edward Griffin back in the 1980's what he says is 100% what's been happening. Since the Cold War. Right now they are trying to push nations into Crisis Stage of ideological subversion. Look closely at Canada right now, the PM is literally trying to get the military involved over mask and vaccine mandates and is on video praising dictators. Canada is still trying to destabilize and push into Crisis and the truckers are getting in their way and now he is trying to have militarized involvement to stop protesting of what he said is a small fringe group. More people need to wake up big time, because Normalization is permanent.

[@wm1958]

@P D man it's absolutely disgusting what they are doing to people, part of me gets angry at the ones brainwashed by it all and believing all the propaganda and part of me feels sorry for them because I also was born as the process was happening as well, it's been going on for a while, Demoralization takes at least 30 years. They lied to me as well, I knew something wasn't right and through research found out about Yuri well before it was so obvious, somewhere around 2008 or so, then reading Operation Northwoods documents blew my mind, that was legitimate declassified documents by the JFK assassination association center back in 1997. It was an actual plan our own government had in place to murder a bunch of our own civilians and even military personnel through mass shootings, highjacked planes crashing them into boats and buildings and staging riots across the nation and even burning down a harbor in Miami. The plans were written up in 1960 and was signed by the head of Department of Defense (forgot his name) It never happened but they did plan on doing all that just for propaganda for an excuse for war, they were going to blame it all on terrorism. Sounds familiar doesn't it? We live in a world of endless lies and propaganda and they pit people against each other fueled by hatred and propaganda. It's sick. Yeah, carhartt can go F themselves, sad because they used to be by go-to for work wear

[@spencerbixby7819]

Thanks for the heads up on 1620 workwear! Never heard of them until you mentioned it. I was a boiler rat for a long time; in 10 years of industrial and commercial work I haven’t found anything harder on clothes than power plant coal boiler cleaning. I used to utterly destroy a pair of boots and my entire work wardrobe every 6 months or so and was lucky if the soles didn’t melt off of the boots. Now that I’m switching trades to HVAC and pipe fitting I’m more inclined to buy better quality clothes and boots. ESPECIALLY with a lifetime guarantee; can’t beat that!

[@Screenwriting]

I went to Red Clouds collective once. The two brothers who own it are the real deal. They live the lifestyle and are incredibly proud about their offerings. Great company!

[@themoor5498]

Carl, thank you for this compilation of available workwear (aka heritage style) clothing in the US. Buying from overseas companies and not getting the correct size adds to the expense when having to return the item via international shipping costs.

[@journeymanedc]

I have a couple pairs of Greasepoint's work jeans and they're incredible. They feel bombproof but are also very refined in their construction. There isn't a stitch out of place. Even at $350, I think they're a great value when compared to a lot of the Japanese denim out there when you consider details like the double fronts, all copper hardware, and the fact that they're made to order by a couple of guys in Portland. Glad to see Greasepoint featured on this list!

[@12vmoneypit]

Do guys really wear pants like these on work sites,

[@journeymanedc]

@@12vmoneypit I am commercial electrician and I don't see much raw/selvage denim jeans on site. Most guys on jobsites dress as cheaply as possible or just wear the standard Carhartt/Duluth. I have a few pairs of raw denim jeans I'll wear at work, but I usually go with a more technical pant with more stretch and pockets for hand tools. I wear my Greasepoint's causally or for work around the house.

[@12vmoneypit]

@@journeymanedc a couple of years ago I started buying PNW boots. I was sick of the quality of redwings and such. I've been very happy with that decision and have been wondering if these "work pant" were that much better. I could see spending more money if that was the case.

[@journeymanedc]

@@12vmoneypit I think it depends on what you value. I wear Wesco Jobmasters at work and I'll never to back to a non-PNW work boot. The support, protection, durability, and recraftability are all features I really value. When it comes to work pants, I don't find the heritage style stuff to offer as many benefits over more modern stuff like the 1620 pants. Greasepoint's are plenty durable enough to wear on any jobsite and some people do. I just prefer pants that are lighter weight with more pockets and more stretch that I don't mind destroying at work.

[@12vmoneypit]

@@journeymanedc I wear rustler carpenter pants from farm and fleet. I get about a year out of a pair of them. I've been eyeing up the 1620 pants. Not sure I can pull the trigger on a pair though. If I knew they would last longer than my rustlers I would. What it really boils down to is I remember my grandpa have the same clothes for what seems like decades. His boots he had were old Irish setters. They were the last pair of boots he bought while working. He claimed they had 15 years at the plant plus another 10+ years at home on them. Granted he didn't wear them much at home anymore but still. That's a long time for a pair of boots. I guess you could say that what has started me down this road of looking for quality made stuff. I might just have to pull the trigger on one of these brands and find out how much better they are. Kind of like the PNW boots. I have been blown away by the longevity of these boots so far.

[@jeremyl.7563]

What a great video! I have recently been exploring American made workwear. I just joked at work. It's so important to me to wear american made boots and the rest made in China, lol. I am seeing that "work wear" seems to be a it thing to wear in society. I am a machinist working in manufacturing , happily married with a family, and the price points for some of these brands. Let's just say it is quite jaw-dropping. Great video, and thank you for spending some time with each brand.

I can attest that red clouds collective clothing is absolutely top quality. I bought their lined work vest from them 3 years ago, have worn it working in a shop, going out, rain sleet snow and it's still in amazing shape and will be for years to come. Tough a nails and great looking clothes. Expensive but everything I have bought from them has been more than worth every penny.

[@taylorlibby7642]

Thanks so much for this! I've been looking for more info on American made clothing to help fill out my wardrobe.

[@shawndunleavy892]

We switched over to 1620 work wear about 2 years ago. They have awesome work pants and they have a local printer and embroider up there so we order our company hoodies and tshirts from them as well. I am so happy to be rid of the carhartt junk and have work gear that actually lasts. As far as boots… whites boots is my number one choice. I wore red wing for years but most of their stuff is made overseas now. My son likes thorogood American heritage which are great boots too. Seal either brand up with sno seal and you’re good to go in our trade-plumbing

[@trah666]

I know some of this stuff is expensive, but the thing about premium workwear is it is repairable, i have stuff that has been mended many times and lasted me years longer than a carhartt would on the jobsite. The cost of entry is high, but in the long run you save money.

[@davidpratschner254]

Right. A guy laughed at me for buying Redwings for $300. “I can get three pair of $100 boots instead.” Three times the waste for a less comfortable boot that was made by slaves.

[@tysobol]

Those Red Clouds Overalls are one of the best purchases I've ever made. I've also got some of their GN01 Work Pants and love them too. I don't wear them in hot weather, but everything I've got from Red Clouds is top notch

[@bsousa3837]

Thanks Carl (and viewer suggestions) for putting together a truly original made in America list. Had not heard of any of these brands outside of 1620. Throughout the video, you had me pausing between companies so I could check out their website/offerings. Just purchased me a cone mills work shirt from red cloud (if it is half as nice in person then I’m in for a treat)

[@calebc3662]

Great video Carl! Thank you so much for this video as it’s hard to find brands like these nowadays. I want to especially thank you for telling me about LC King and Diamond Gusset as I live in Tennessee and would love to support local brands such as those two. In fact, since your video I have bought a denim jacket from Diamond Gusset and am extremely exciting for it! Thank you for your video and the ever growing knowledge you bring young men like me!

[@cliffordcrise780]

I know there are several more American made brands out there but, another brand to look at is Atlas 46. They make quite a bit of work gear. My personal favorite right now are their Concord work pants. You have to wait a while for them to be made, and they are a bit pricey, but worth every penny when you consider they last forever. I currently have two pairs that have outlasted every other brand I have tried. I crawl through attics, crawl spaces, ceiling spaces, on the ground, and just about everywhere stuff breaks. They have held up and are still going strong, two years later.

[@krazmokramer]

Nice review, Carl! IMO, buying MADE IN USA simply because it is made here in the USA is foolish. It has to have the quality and durability that was originally implied with the MADE IN USA label. Companies can't live on a past reputation. Shoppers are smarter than that. If it has the quality and durability, then it is worth the premium MADE IN USA price. If it is cheap, thrown together crap with a high price, you can get that from PRC or any number of places. MADE IN USA should NOT be just an excuse to charge more for junk!

[@jonathanyoung8109]

Most of the time it’s a scam pulled on patriotic working class people. They rationalize the exorbitant price by making you feel special buying “Made in America”! Absolute scam.

[@walterbryan1798]

Hey Carl, With regards to a Diamond Gusset, their stretch denim is imported from Mexico and sewn into pants in the USA. I know because I ordered a pair and was shocked to see “made in Mexico” on the tag. The stretch denim comes from one of Cone Mills’ mills in MX. I believe the 100% cotton ones are grown domestically.

[@wagzz3000]

Pretty much anything with stretch is made overseas, I am actually in the process of building a workwear brand and getting grown, woven, and assembled in the USA has been a nightmare. There is only one mill in the US that is doing end to end selvedged denim and its Vidalia Mills. Origin Main has had to actually buy their own looms because they couldnt get the materials they wanted. Even Vidalia Mills has to use out of country materials for its stretch. I guess spandex just isnt made in the US.

[@southjerseysound7340]

Their stretch fabrics are made in Mexico with domestic cotton. My families farm has been selling them cotton for some time now. They don't like farming things out but in order to keep prices affordable on some things they have to because we're not able to make the stuff here anymore. So they do use some synthetic Mexican fabric.

[@wagzz3000]

[@CarlMurawski]

Of course that’s true. It’s a difficult balance to find a company that makes exceptional stuff, in extended sizes, ethically. I remember someone from a factory tour explaining to me that they don’t make much beyond small or XXL because it simply doesn’t sell. I also like to concentrate on small makers because that’s where I feel that I can do the most good. A video may spawn enough orders to keep them in business, or be able to hire someone to do the books. The big companies don’t need me, but my job is to serve the viewer first. It’s also a hard balance.

Why don’t you wear dickies it’s cheap and works good enough for the price

[@chillwillrocco]

Round House is good and the price is below $100 too. I have several pairs of overalls from them and they are great. I'll be buying their pants in the future.

[@ripjones5294]

An overall good list. Have two pairs of Diamond Gusset, and they are really good. Texas Jeans Company is one you missed. All made in the States, but some imported materials. All American Clothing is a place I shop. Big Bill flannel shirts are not as soft as Portugal flannel, but I like them. King Manufacturing is really good, but as others on your list, they tend to be a little pricier than other options. Good list, Sir !!

Great vid always interested in Made In the USA… my Grandma retired from LC King back in the early 80’s… when things were affordable… she made overalls i think for the pointer brand.

Well hello im nick im an orchardist from greece and i really love carhartt. Carhartt and dickies and duluth are well known in EU hope to see more brands like these from American companies in EU. They doing awesome work! Cheers!

i wore Round House Pin striped carpenter overalls for 20 plus years and they RULE !

[@BedpanStan]

I’m going to be honest, the workwear is nice and all, but I get mine at Walmart, same time I go grocery shopping. I mean supporting American made brands is one thing, but they don’t support me, times are tough and I can’t spare more than I can afford just to have something wear out just as quick but for more of my hard earned cash. If you want to buy from them, do as you wish. That’s just my two cents, which I’ll be needing back by the way. Ps- still an informative video, and will be revisiting when I win the lotto for some shopping ideas.

Would personally recommend Wild Ass denim jeans made by Baileys, a historic logging gear company. My friend and I have had good success with their jeans. Come with bachelor buttons too, for those who prefer or would like to try suspenders. Very affordable for the value received (USA made, 14.75 oz Denim, etc.)….

Hey Carl great video! Have you ever thought of doing a "X Brands made in Y" series? Like top 5 brands made in Germany or top 8 Brands made in Canada?

[@donnyt4853]

Which brand shirt are you wearing in this video? I couldn’t really tell from the patch.

[@beerhunter272]

Hey Carl. I love your channel. I was set on buying a Carhartt jacket, but then I came across a Berne sherpa lined hooded canvas jacket for half the price. It's very well made and is now my favorite jacket. Have you heard of them? I'd like to hear your thoughts on their clothing. Thanks and take care.

[@robertlarsen6516]

Thanks, brother. I will visit this one again and again. Appreciated.

[@mikehammer4546]

Have you had a chance to take a look at the Wild ASS Line. Made originally for the logging industry but have make the cross over to other areas of work wear. Got the Chore jacket and love it. It’s and old school look but that’s what I wanted. $60 for a jacket ain’t bad.

I found out about roundhouse a month or two ago the carpenter jeans are awesome

[@mikediangelis9565]

I'm always looking for a Ragwool watchman cap with a lining

[@jcmc6182]

I really wanted to like Roundhouse. After purchasing a jacket and a couple pair of work jeans, all three items were received with defects. From torn crotch, to crooked collar, crooked sewn pants legs, etc.... I really wished Rounhouse would pay more attention to quality control...

[@craigk965]

I have some of the lcking brand bib overalls and jeans they are awesome great little family-owned company out of Bristol Tennessee
