| We are always looking to provide the best quality merchandise at a reasonable prices. Unfortunately in the textile industry "Made In USA" does not necessarily equal "quality" at any price. However, chances are any "quality" garment that contains cotton (like the Tee-Shirts we sell here on Vision Riders), is probably made with Cotton from the USA. |

Wake Forest, NC | Seriously,
Made in America does equate to jobs in America, and money spent on those products staying here in America. Important things considering the nasy state of the economy.
Offering domestic products might just have a calling here, IMHO |

North Orange County CA | When I was much younger, there used to be a TV commercial for the International Ladies Garment Workers Union that had a catchy little song that (I think) said it all.
And given the fact that he remembers ancient Ray Stevens lyrics, I'll bet Donetracey can still sing it! Karaoke anyone!
------------------------------
Look for the union label
when you are buying that coat, dress or blouse.
Remember somewhere our union's sewing,
our wages going to feed the kids, and run the house.
We work hard, but who's complaining?
Thanks to the I.L.G. we're paying our way!
So always look for the union label,
it says we're able to make it in the U.S.A.!
--------------------------------
Of course that was long ago and far, far away. Now we have to actively search for products made by Americans and fool around trying to determine if with arcane domestic content rules the product is actually American made.
It's a crying shame.
I already have three vision riders t-shirts, but if you decide to change to a quality USA made product, I'll replace them.

Miles (Vision-Rider) was being nice. Whenever he has shopped for decent-quality tshirts, they've never been made in the US (sad to say). Much of the US-made shirts were, frankly, junk. And you as the end-consumer would be cussing us out for selling junk that barely lasted a riding season. That being said, we have always tried to buy US-made when we think it's worthwhile.

Wake Forest, NC | Miles was very helpful in a private message, explained the situation. I should have followed up on here, went back to edit my post, but the 30 minute time limit had expired.
Anyway, as long as Miles thinks that good ol' fashioned USA cotton fibers might just be tainting those foriegn manufactured shirts, its good enough for me....lol
...until there is a quality made in USA shirt found...

guelph ontario | I was somewhat disappointed to see that the HD shirts given to one of the posters was used to clean the Vision. I sold my HD and bought a Vision and have many HD tshirts. I will give them away but will not use them to polish or clean the Vic. I see no need for us to be disrespectful of other brands and would hope that we are above this sort of thing. We would not like it if other brand owners used our Vic clothing as rags. |

guelph ontario | yes-there are enough issues in society today that we do not need to disrespect anyone's products regardless of our preferences. |

| My HD fellow worker and I joke about this all the time. You have such a great idea, just throw those HD shirts out and fill the landfill instead of recycling. Disrespect over a $10 t-shirt?
When I told the girl at the counter when buying him an HD t-shirt I was going to clean my Vision BEFORE I gave it to him she started laughing butt off. |

guelph ontario | Its not the price-its what the action stands for. Also I advocate giving unused clothing to the clothing recyclers-not necessarily in the land fill. If they do go into the fill-at least they are biodegradeable. |
