The 10 Best USA-Made Products To Buy This Weekend
The time is right to shop the best menswear — and more specifically, the best American-made menswear and gear. And when we want to shop our share of picks that go above and beyond, from an unlined trucker jacket to a tough multi-tool to a neat flag for your home, we head to one place: Huckberry.
Our good friends have pulled together one heck of an impressive lineup of USA-made products to shop this Fourth of July weekend. After all, there’s just something different about buying American-made, from the quality to the durability to the support of craftspeople you very well might know.
Again, it’s all at Huckberry. It was a tough task, but we managed to pull together the 10 best USA-made products to buy this weekend. Need help getting started? Look no further.
The James Brand Hell Gap Knife
Superior EDC essentials are the name of the game for The James Brand, founded by designers and adventurers. This 3.8” stainless steel blade with comfortable Micarta handle features a modified drop point design that’s perfect for everything from peeling apples to skinning rabbits.
Flint and Tinder Unlined Waxed Trucker Jacket
Perhaps the crown jewel of the stellar offerings being produced season after season by Flint and Tinder, the Waxed Trucker Jacket gets one heck of a summer-friendly update via the removal of the traditional flannel lining. That means the Flint and Tinder Unlined Waxed Trucker Jacket is fit to be worn all day long and into the evening atop your favorite T-shirt.
GoRuck GR1
We’re always impressed by the next-level work that GoRuck churns out, from field-ready shirt and shorts to the type of gear that’s adventure-minded, yet also stylish. It’s tough to do all of this in the States, but GoRuck has achieved its mission quite handily with the rugged GoRuck GR1, made from military-grade, water-resistant materials.
Oxford Pennant American Made Camp Flag
How can you not love what Oxford Pennant designs and produces out of Buffalo, New York? They take a blue-collar approach to churning out uniquely vintage-but-modern pieces to spruce up any home or office — or your cabin, for that matter. Nod to the holiday with this “American Made” flag that proudly shows off the brand’s indomitable spirit.
Leatherman FREE P4 Multipurpose Plier
Everyone knows the summer isn’t exactly all about kicking back — there’s plenty of work to be done, so why not get out in the field or into your garage with the right multi-tool. Leatherman’s made-in-America reputation precedes itself, and the fact that they’ve managed to make multi-purpose pliers out of stainless steel here in the States is mighty impressive.
Billykirk No. 297 Standard Issue Backpack
For more than 20 years, Billykirk has delivered the kind of small-batch goods that last and last (seriously, the founders still have some of their original pieces). That approach to craftsmanship shines through in this handsome-yet-tough backpack, made to haul all your EDC essentials in American-produced fashion.
Taylor Stitch Moto Jacket
It gets harder and harder to make the best menswear in America, not least one of the best men’s jackets — but Taylor Stitch, as ever, has managed to get the job done yet again. The Taylor Stitch Moto Jacket has long been one of our favorite pieces from the brand, but it’s proven tough to keep in stock. Take the chance to get your own American-made leather jacket now.
Red Wing Heritage Card Holder
Perhaps, even as you read this, you’re scheming about your next day hike or outing with your Red Wing Heritage boots pulling your outfit together. Ever innovative, Red Wing has turned its attention toward another essential leather good — your everyday card holder. It’ll break in as nicely as your boots.
Flint and Tinder 1-Year Wash Jeans
Every guy just needs a great pair of go-to jeans. The type you can throw on and live a little while wearing — and the Flint and Tinder 1-Year Wash Jeans, with their pleasing fit and perfectly faded design, are the best jeans to buy now (and then wear all summer).
TJB x Field Notes Ltd. Edition Grid Notepad
Who knows more about The James Brand when it comes to rugged everyday carry essentials? Well, Field Notes might just give them a run for their money especially when it comes to producing those essential pocket-sized notebooks we all know and love. They’ve teamed up on a seriously cool, sleek notepad — a set of three special-edition notepads, in fact.
Shamma Warriors Sandals
What better way to kick back for summer than with the best men’s sandals? Particularly a USA-made pair with a sleek finish? The Shamma Warrior Sandals are everything you didn’t think sandals could be, and then some.
