I have some bad news. Carhartts and Wranglers are no longer American made.

We started noticing a different feel in the fabric and stitch. I decided to check the tag. Both brands are now made in MEXICO.

I visited their websites and the manufacturers are a little ambiguous in disclosing where their clothing are made. If you wish to purchase these brands (US manufactured) you’ll have to visit a thrift store.

If you’d like American made products that are similar to Carhartt buy Schaefer Ranchwear.

That's just sad... Goes to show how good the product is ( I guess was ). All the Carhartt products I own are years old!

Come to find out, I went over to the clothing tree and checked the label on a winter bib I bought last Fall... the label still states made in USA. I suppose it could be a batch made before the change...

If the choice is between (1) buying American, and definitely supporting gun control politics & politicians, and (2) buying foreign and maybe NOT supporting gun control politics & politicians, I'll go with (2) any day.

I currently own a Dodge, and have been happy with it over all - but I will NEVER buy another one, if the UAW ('a wholly owned subsidiary of the D@mocrat party') owns any part of the company...
