It's expensive to make blue jeans in America

In the quiet town of Shawnee, Oklahoma, the rapid whir of sewing machines fills one of the last surviving American garment factories. Inside, denim from 100% American cotton is cut and sewn by hand into jeans, with a “Made in USA” tag stitched into every pair. Founded in 1903, Round House Jeans is Oklahoma’s oldest manufacturer. Vice President David Antosh, whose family has run the company for over six decades, describes making affordable American-made jeans as both his family’s heritage and a way to support his community.
