I don't know where this belongs, and, no, I don't have a financial interest.
Made in USA jeans, 45.95 - www.gusset.com
Also, www.allamericanclothing.com
I've bought both, and quality is excellent.
Just thought some out there would want to know.
This does raise an interesting point, though. I don't know the politics of the owners of either of these companies, though I could guess. Would that make a difference? Should it?

If however, they become outspoken about their politics and make an issue of it, then I'd probably avoid them.
Otherwise, I am more of a live and let live type of guy. Really, only when they use their business and authority to raise a point on their politics would I have a problem with them.

I like seeing these made in the USA websites, but they're either mostly men's clothes or very frumpy and matronly looking.

(30,947 posts)but they do not seem to have any boot cut jeans for women. I do not like straight leg jeans. And I also priced the only boot cut jeans at allamerican.com. Unbelievably expensive at $69.95. I buy my Lees and Levis jeans at Kohl's for $49 or less.

Gordon Liddy, Phil Valentine and Alex Jones. Currently, the company is working with the Army-Airforce Exchange Service (AAFES) highlighting the new Kevlar lined Defender Jean.

To buy, or not to buy. That is the question.
