What are the benefits of buying clothes made in the USA?
Shopping American-made clothing goes beyond just getting quality garments. When we buy items made in the USA, we support local businesses, which helps keep jobs within our communities and boosts the local economy. American-made brands often emphasize quality craftsmanship and durable materials, too, meaning we’re likely getting something that will last longer and stand up to wear.
Clothing brands that manufacture in the USA are also generally more transparent about their production processes, with many prioritizing fair labor practices and sustainable methods. And there’s something really satisfying about knowing the clothes we wear didn’t have to travel halfway around the world to get to us! In this way, we can reduce our carbon footprint while also supporting local makers and small businesses. Because it’s not just about buying something new; it’s a way to make a positive impact with each purchase!

Customer Review | “This is my second classic full zip purchase. My first was years ago, and it’s still in great shape, and now I have two in rotation. Warm enough to wear as a jacket on cold days in MN, and perfect for a dog walk; don’t get too warm, but don’t get cold. I wear a large so there’s room for an extra hoodie underneath on really cold days.” – Jade F. (Read all reviews.)

Our Editor’s Review | “As someone who lives in her “cozies” year-round, MATE the Label’s organic basics are my cozy garments of choice — for lounging at home or running errands around the city. The quality and mission justify the hefty price tag, and even after years of wear, these sweats and tees look as good as new. ” – Kayti Christian, Senior Content Strategist [Read the full review.]

Customer Review | “This is a really versatile top that can get easily dressed up for elegance or down for a casual occasion. The fabric is lightweight and stretchy but it still keeps its shape well even after 2-3 wears before I wash it. Even though it’s fitted, it doesn’t feel tight and the fabric doesn’t thin out in areas where it’s stretched out more. I couldn’t love this top more that I plan on getting the black and the chalk blue when it’s back in stock.“ – Lizzie (Read all reviews.)

Customer Review | “I love these pants. They’re so comfy but look put together. My most stylish friend complimented my outfit the other day when I wore them (a rarity, ha!). I’m 5’6”, 150lbs with a postpartum belly and the medium was perfect, though the waist seemed a little snug at first. (I tried large as well, and though it seemed like a good fit at first, it quickly was clear that they would fall down easily.” – Noelle O. (Read all reviews.)

Customer Review | “This is HANDS DOWN my favorite piece I own from Vitamin A. Fits true to size. This top’s quality is UNMATCHED. I feel great knowing it was sourced from fishing nets in the ocean, and feel even better when I put it on. It provides a surprising amount of bust support with JUST enough coverage + cleavage. The chain-links are heavy-weight and not plastic like in any capacity. The fabric is soft and luscious with a touch of stretch. I will be coming back to purchase every piece from the ReLux collection – I feel so good in this bikini!!” – Lexi (Read all reviews.)
