It is no secret that American Apparel prides itself on being made in America. More specifically, in Downtown LA. They boast of their "Sweat-shop free" factory right on the homepage of their website. They also employ "vertically integrated manufacturing" which, they also write on their site, "minimizes the use of sub-contractors and offshore labor." Knitting, dyeing, sewing, photography, marketing distribution and design all happen in their Los Angeles facilities." And it certainly is working for them; they are hugely successful, employing over 10,000 people worldwide. They are great for basic cotton pieces, with a rainbow of color options. Hats off, or should we say shirts off?
