Thank goodness you posted this in "Breaking News", lest someone miss this earth-shattering turn of events.

Your items look great so I don't mean to sound ugly here, but I always ask a few questions when shopping these days ...

Are these products for sale here in the USA, Made in USA, where manf. workers are still paid a decent living wage, along with the guarantee of a reasonable degree of safety and protection in the workplace?

Or were they sewn/created by little 12yr old girls, slaving 6+days a week, @ 16+hr shifts (w/ a production quota) under desperate circumstances in a miserable corner of some 3rd World Sweatshop ... all so a few American corporate heads, their upper-management-cronies and foreign counter-parts can rake in ENORMOUS, '90's style' Free Trade profits, by sucking off of what's left of the middle-class in America?

I always ask before I pull out my money ... find I feel alot cleaner then.

[Bob J]

To be honest, I don't know. Reg set this up and I've never worked with them before. You may be able to find out at their info or FAQ page.

Reg set this up when he did the logo. It slipped my mind and I'm kicking myself.

The images at the site indicate that the images are screened on Hanes Beefy-T's. I did a search on Hanes Beefy-T "Made in" and found several sites that indicate they are, but nothing at the company site...

At least I can get a t-shirt, even if I can't be there.

Mrs. CD and I are headed out for Nags Head first thing in the A.M. (with our daughter, of course).

I hope FRiva goes well!

[Bob J]

We'll look for you next time!

I have purchased quite a few Beefy-T's in the last 30 yrs, and while they can still produce a fairly good product, they have shifted virtually all of their production down to Mexico, Honduras, San Salvador and Dominican Republic. I've also seen some of their stuff made in Haiti.

Meanwhile the small towns scattered all across the southern U.S. and the families which used to rely upon those low-paying, but living wage jobs in those towns and communities are left descimated.

But hey, I'm sure the CEO's at Hanes/Fruit of the Loom etc and the well compensated politicians who passed NAFTA/GATT/WTO (to include Presidente Jorge, who is ramrodding his new S.A. Trade scam) are all toasting their dramatic new increase in 'Global Profits', along with relaxed/non-existant foreign govt oversight.

Let's just face it .... for some people, more than plenty isn't even close to being enough.

In another 20 years, the American Middle Class will be but a questionable curiosity represented in old movies.

BTW are Red Wing shoes still proudly Made In USA ??

[Constitution Day]

I will definitely be there.

I'm also planning to attend CPAC in 2002.

[RedWing9]

BTW are Red Wing shoes still proudly Made In USA ??

I have no idea. I'm a fan of the Detroit Red Wings. I have never bought a Red Wing shoe in 36 years...

Yes, they are! Proudly made in Red Wing, Minnesota! You can stop by any dealer today and get US flag lace keeper for free! Huzzah for US manufacturing...and piss on all those filthy NAFTA/GATT/WTO rats!

I just ordered a mug and T-Shirt...I don't think they will have them on sale there. It's one of those order by phone or online things I think.....
