You will find the prices crazy higher than some big conglomeration with items made in china but as a small biz guy i can tell you the commitment to manufacture anything completely in the US is an extremely expensive one. Supporting companies that can and have made that commitment is hard but necessary. One thing you can count on is that the clothes will survive washing more than one or two times unlike the throw away landfill fodder of target or Walmart.
