One of the products Emil Erwin sells is Made in America Leather Braces. A more complete list of their products is provided by Made in America Secrets, to review their list click here.
For more information about Emil Erwin and its American Made products see the following:
Emil Erwin is a leather and canvas carrygoods company in Nashville, Tennessee, owned and operated by Emil and Leslie Congdon. The business is named for its chief designer and craftsman and in honor of the small Appalachian town where he learned to love the art of his trade.
It was while growing up in Erwin, a mountain town in upper east Tennessee, that Emil Congdon developed his admiration for quality leatherwork during visits to Baker Shoe & Saddle Repair. Emil was intrigued by the skill that went into the handwork and inspired by the care that was necessary to tame the massive hides into usable products. When he was in college, he taught himself to sew, mending holes in his pants and eventually figuring out construction. Later, Emil honed his work during apprenticeships with high-end auto upholstery businesses and critical trial and error in his home studio in Nashville.
Making and selling leather bags at craft show was a hobby for Emil until 2009, when Leslie, a native of Nashville, convinced him that together they could make his pastime into a family business. Emil locked himself in the 267-square-foot detached garage in the couple's backyard and got to work. His efforts quickly paid off. Later that year, Imogene + Willie caught wind of the talented young Southern leatherworker who was turning out exquisitely detailed, long-wearing bags. The two teams worked together on a collaboration for J.Crew that quickly sold out. In 2010, Garden & Gun magazine awarded Emil Erwin the top prize in the style division of its esteemed Made in the South awards. Other press came calling, and orders started flooding in.
In early 2012, Emil Erwin headquarters moved from the Congdon's backyard to its current home, a 1,300-square-foot workshop in Marathon Village. There, Emil supervises the design studio, acting as chief designer and craftsman, while Leslie works on product development and provides design direction, in particular injecting a feminine point of view into the collection. The result is a balanced stable of elegant, expertly constructed bags, belts, wallets and other small accessories that have earned Emil Erwin a robust international fan club.
All Emil Erwin products are made from leather sourced at Chicago's Horween Leather Company and waxed canvas from New Jersey's Fairfield Textiles. The entire Emil Erwin collection is patterned, cut, sewn and assembled in the company's Nashville design studio, where a devotion to quality, function and impeccable attention to detail defines the company's product.
As a company, Emil Erwin believes in quality without compromise, using the best materials, tools, and techniques to make a superior product. This devotion to craft results in a product rare in today's market, one that is not only beautiful, but will also stand the test of time. As such, each Emil Erwin product is guaranteed for life.
Emil Erwin products are available on the company website and in the design studio in Nashville.

One of the products Enviro-Tote sells is Made in the USA Messenger Bags. A more complete list of their products is provided by Made in America Secrets, to review their list click here.
For more information about Enviro-Tote and its American Made products see the following:
Enviro-Tote?, Inc. has been creating environmentally friendly promotional tote bags since 1990. Our bags are made from unbleached and colored cotton, certified organic cotton, and The Bottle Bag?, a material made from 100% recycled soda bottles. All our products are made in the U.S.A. We fill orders starting at only 50 bags! And our customers have used Enviro-Tote? bags for company promotions and special events throughout the U.S. and around the world.
Family owned and operated
Each of our bags is individually cut, hand-stitched and screen-printed at our plant in tax-free Bedford, New Hampshire. Enviro-Tote?, Inc. is a family-owned, woman-owned and operated company.
One bag at a time
Because we cut fabric only after an order arrives, we can provide custom sizes and styles as easily as our standard sizes and styles. We offer a wide selection of unbleached and colored materials for both bags and handles. After carefully cutting and hand-stitching each bag, we customize your bags with your company logo or promotional message. From start to finish, we take great care in producing each bag we make.
Enviro-Tote staff
Company with a conscience
The environment is important to us, so we believe in generating as little waste as possible in all that we do. Our efficient cutting and stitching methods, along with precise printing, eliminate fabric waste. All of our standard sizes are designed to have no fabric waste. We recycle all our office paper and cardboard, cans and bottles, and re-use one-sided office paper, which is bound into note pads. And, of course, we re-use our Enviro-Tote bags when we shop!
A history of recycling
Enviro-Tote began operations in Manchester's historic Millyard and purchased stitching equipment from garment giant Pandora, which was going out of business after providing decades of work to local stitchers. In addition to recycling Pandora's stitching machines, we also hired Pandora stitchers, most are still with our company today.
Value of working together
We value our employees and their work, as evidenced by our affiliation with the Fair Labor Association as a Category C licensee. Since 1990, we have grown from 12 to 40 employees, many who have been with us since the beginning. As a family-owned business, we understand the importance of working well together. This harmony and attention to detail is seen in every bag we make.

One of the products Filson sells is Made in the USA Backpacks / Back Packs. A more complete list of their products is provided by Made in America Secrets, to review their list click here.
For more information about Filson and its Made in America products see the following:
FILSON - RUGGED QUALITY FOR OVER 100 YEARS
Born in 1850, C. C. Filson inherited his father's pioneer spirit and love of the outdoors. After homesteading in Nebraska and roaming the country as a railroad conductor, he moved to the small city of Seattle, Washington in the 1890s.
Filson's timing couldn't have been better. By 1897, the Great Klondike Gold Rush was on, and thousands of fortune hunters were stampeding into Seattle, headed north. Armed with a strong work ethic, a reputation for honesty and several years' experience operating a small loggers' outfitting store, C. C. Filson was ready to stake his claim to fame. Here is what he had to say in our 1914 catalog:
To our customers: if a man is going North, he should come to us for his outfit, because we have obtained our ideas of what is best to wear in that country from the experience of the man from the North -- not merely one -- but hundreds of them. Our materials are the very best obtainable, for we know that the best is none too good and that quality is of vital importance. You can depend absolutely upon our goods both as to material and workmanship.
THE GOLD RUSH YEARS: 1897-1899
In 1897, Filson opened C.C. Filson's Pioneer Alaska Clothing and Blanket Manufacturers, specializing in goods to outfit the stampeders to the Klondike Gold Rush.
Stories of harrowing experiences in the Yukon were widely reported. The diary of Hume Nisbet, 1897 painted this picture: Try to recall your sensations on the coldest night you have ever known: try to intensify the most bitter ice blast that has ever pierced your marrow by a thousandfold, even then you will not be able to realize spring in the Chilkoot Canyon, far less midwinter on the Klondike.
It was for these rugged conditions that Filson designed his goods. He owned his own mill and manufactured Mackinaw Wool clothing and blankets, knit goods, as well as selling boots, shoes, moccasins and sleeping bags specially designed for the frigid North. Filson kept in close contact with his customers, improving his goods to meet their specific needs. The stampeders depended on Filson. In that era, clothing wasn't a matter of choice, but of survival.
TOUGH, COMFORTABLE OUTDOOR CLOTHING FOR HUNTERS AND ANGLERS, ENGINEERS AND EXPLORERS, MARINERS AND MINERS
The Gold Rush faded into history, but Filson kept listening to his customers, and outdoorsmen kept coming to Filson for rugged clothes. Drawing from his past experience outfitting loggers, he soon added clothing for the timber industry, including the Filson Cruiser, the garment that was to earn Filson a place in history. Designed and named by C.C. Filson, and patented on March 3, 1914, U.S. Patent #1088891, the Cruiser Shirt continues to influence Filson's best selling items.
WORLDWIDE REPUTATION FOR HONESTY, QUALITY AND DURABILITY
Filson continued to make his goods from the best materials obtainable, and guaranteed every piece of merchandise. If he didn't stock an item a customer needed, he custom-made it for him. Filson's name became synonymous with reliability, satisfaction and honest values. By the 1960s, Filson's reputation as the premier outfitter for outdoorsmen had spread around the globe. In addition to being stocked by retailers of quality outdoor wear, Filson garments were being ordered by mail from places as far away as Greenland.
The goods we quote must not be confounded with the cheap and vastly inferior grade with which the market is over-run. Such goods are not only useless for the purpose for which they are intended, but the person wearing them would be better off without them.
-- Clinton C. Filson, 1914 catalog
WHAT WORKED THEN, STILL WORKS NOW
Over the years, Filson's philosophy has never changed: Make sure it's the absolute best. Clinton Filson spent a lot of time talking to his customers and refining his designs to their specifications. So it's not surprising that the items that worked then still work today, over 100 years later. Comfort, protection and durability never go out of style.
