“Often, if you check a label inside a t-shirt that has an American flag pictured on the front, you’ll find that the shirt was Made in China! It’s not always China—it could be Vietnam, Sri Lanka, Honduras—anywhere but the United States. This is an irony that is emblematic of the enormous shift in emphasis away from manufacture in this country over the last few decades. The apparel industry began to defect a few decades ago to save on labor costs—who could blame them, you say? In fact, there are many advantages to keeping production local, and many of those who left for foreign production have probably experienced enough problems lately to have given some thought these days to those benefits.
Hanky Panky is a better lingerie design and manufacture firm that never considered leaving our shores. We’ve been based in New York since we opened our doors in 1977 and have used local contractors from day 1. We are proud of our allegiance to those who knit and print and ship and inventory and grade and make patterns and cut and sew—all in this country—and applaud Made in USA Certified for documenting and certifying these activities. We are extremely proud to display their logo which clearly proclaims that our production has passed their rigorous standards for local manufacture. Hanky Panky–Made in the USA since 1977.”

“All American Clothing Co. competes in an industry that is considered to be 97% foreign made. Thus we receive emails on a daily basis asking if we are truly in the top 3% of USA Made apparel manufactures. Patrons constantly question us about raw goods and labor. I certainly cannot fault buyers for asking… but the truth is we are one of the few that can legally claim to be USA Made. We exceed the Federal Trade Commissions strictest of rules. The backing offered by USA-C (Made in USA Certified, Inc.) constantly helps us to satisfy our patrons that we are being honest, compliant and well within the FTC Act’s conditions/rules. USA Made products and jobs are important and USA-C Certification helps us to give comfort to the patrons that they are getting a genuine USA Made product. Thank you Adam and Julie… keep up the good work!”
