I was killing time today at Tongass Trading in K-Town. They probably have one of the biggest collections of high-tech coats I have found under one roof in AK. What amazed me is that how much of the high-end stuff is made in China... Patagonia, North Face, Mtn. Hardware, Helly Hansen, Marmot...even Woolrich.. Why on earth would I want to spend $250 on a rain shell made in China? Is there a single rain shell, high tech fabric, coat made in the U.S. anymore?

Never mind, that link to Outawear above has given me some serious ideas on how to spend my Permfund check.

Filson Outdoor Clothes (Since 1897).

Their catalog identifies which items are made in the USA (which is a fair amount) and which are imported.

Now don't you all go stealing my good sense of style.
