Jeans - made in USA?

smittie

Just wondering if any of you know of any jeans that are made in the USA (or Canada)?
I have heard of reformation but they’re pricey.
Thanks!

I thought maybe universal standard but I went to check and country of origin is not listed. You could maybe ask their customer service.

I thought that line one of the Kardashian’s did was made in LA. It had American in the name. True American maybe?

Some NYDJ styles are labeled as made in the US - but not all.

My AG jeans say on the label that they are “Made in the U.S. of imported fabric and globally-sourced components.”

Thanks ladies! I’ll check them out.
Those yoga jeans seem promising, TG! Less expensive and made in Canada!

Just googled it, abc, and the Kardashian line is Good American, but they removed “made in LA” from their “about” page. The jeans look really great. I betcha they work on my big (er... voluminous?) bum too!

I think Krishnidoux has Yoga Jeans, doesn't she?

For US-made, there's Imogene & Willie, BLDWN, and Bluer. I think Agolde is made in LA. Also Reformation, which you mentioned. There are quite a few other small labels that only do men's jeans (I think women's jeans are much trickier in terms of design and sizing). Levi's has a few made-in-the-US options -- maybe just special 501s at this point? Oh, and there's Gamine if you're into the dungarees look. They really just do workwear. Most of these are made with Cone Mills denim, which is also produced in the US.

Civilianaire (started by a founder of Lucky Jeans, I think): https://civilianaire.com/

Raleigh: https://raleighdenimworkshop.com/

FRAME (my faves, you can often find them at a discount at Rack, Saks off 5th or Bloomingdale outlet) : https://frame-store.com/

Paige used to be made in California, but I'm not sure if they are anymore.

a lot of the premium brands are made in the US, so they will be pricey.

the Re/Done label is made in the US, its expensive, but if you look around you can usually find the last season goods on sale

these might be of use

It feels like there is very few jeans made in USA. Lucky Brand did a collection but it was two years ago or more. Now they say that "made in country" means the jeans were finished in that country but where other steps of process ( like coloring/dye/fraying..) is unknown. There is probably one or two mills that produce fabrics that could be use for denim in USA. Lucky uses Cone Denim in Greensboro, NC for some of their jeans.

Oh, I just remembered some boutique brand in Nashville that makes their own jeans. I don’t remember the name but maybe google will turn them up? I vaguely recall reading something about their process and their antique rivet machine.

Tha is Ladies! I’ll check them all out!
Yes, I’m looking for something a little cheaper, but really, I just want to get some benchmarks on what I’ll need to pay domestic denim

Fidelity Denim says they "cut, sew, and wash" all their jeans in North America.

Mother jeans says it's a made-in-LA brand. I don't know if that means the clothes are made in LA.

Rachel Comey makes only a few jean styles. I think
Not cheap, but her Legion style has inspired many a knock-off

For the record, my Universal Standard jeans have a “made in China” tag, though they are considered sustainable manufacturers by sources I trust. Just not made in USA.
