Schott Vintage Cafe Racer Leather Jacket

Schott has been around, as a brand, since the early 1900's.  Started by two brothers, always in NYC, they created some of the best jackets on the market today -- some people may even argue that they're the best.  The British have Belfast, which quickly grew due to the increased Hollywood popularity and equivalent increase in the advertising budget, but I feel like Schott is really what makes the best of Made in USA, it's quiet, great looking and will last you a lifetime.  Huge bonus would be that not many people will know exactly what you're wearing because there are no visible logos, but they're sure to notice that you're wearing something nice...

Aero Tech cycling shorts

For those that read and follow this blog, you will notice that there are quiet a few cycling related topics on here, and that's because cycling is a huge hobby of mine.  So it would come as no surprise that I would seek out items that are Made in USA and also are for cyclist.

These shorts are made in Pennsylvania and feature a full gell insert for comfort on the longer rides. And when in doubt - always wear normal shorts over cycling shorts.

 

WALLACE & BARNES Slim Selvedge Jean

I have to celebrate JCrew's recent venture into Made in USA product, the brand is really going back to its roots is laying down an effort to source product that looks great and is made in America - which makes my life very easy.  These jeans are made in New York but they're from Japanese denim though.
