Always a fan of these videos. It's harder and harder for smaller businesses to afford impactful advertising. Thank you for helping us find these companies instead of leaving us dredging the internet for hours.
There is a small leather shop i recently found on etsy called gray eagle leather. It's a one person operation but the owner Julie does a phenomenal job. I got two of her belts and they are tanks. She uses hermann oaks and wickett and Craig's leathers on some of her belts and the hardware she uses is top notch. I like hanks belts a lot too but I would really urge people to give gray eagle leather a try, you will be very impressed. If would say hanks belts are av little more refined with their designs that include stitching but if you are looking for a simple robust no nonsense belt you will really like gray eagle leather.
Thank you for mentioning Drews boots. I bought my son a pair last year. He wears size FFFF. Bakers boots custom fit him, and his custom size boots fit perfectly. He said there was no break in, and then he wore them the next day at work. He wore them for eight hours. They felt every bit as tough as Nicks. No one outside of Oregon seems to know about Drews boots. So thank you once again for the shout out!
This is a good resource. Thanks Carl. In the last one you did I found Ciano Farmer Denim and I bought a great work jacket from them. Bulletproof construction. Ciano actually answered the phone and took my order! He is a good dude. --Michael
Yessir! This is the stuff I’m looking for this winter. Not a huge fan of the whole “tactical RP” stuff, but the workwear brands will definitely check my boxes. May have to grab a few things for the season. Appreciate ya Carl!
As a weightlifter I'm a big fan of Pioneer, also known as General Leathercraft. Their main business is custom made weightlifting belts and accessories, but they make some really beefy belts and general leather goods as well. I've been appreciating the seeming return of American manufacturing following the 2021 supply chain issues.
Love this types of videos Carl. Learned about a few new companies I hadn’t heard of before. Would be very interested in a deeper dive on some of these brands.
I will 100% swear by Nick's Boots. The break in is rough, but absolutely worth it. Im on my second set of Hotshots, and ill be sending my first set out for a rebuild.
I have an Everyday belt and a bison leather bifold wallet from Hank's Belts and the quality is exemplary. Both the belt and wallet are tough as nails and come with a 100 year warranty to boot. I can't say enough good things about this company.
I have purchased some Union Line items in the past couple of years and they are quite good. USA made with union labor. Very tough and well made. Items from jeans, shirts, and coat. Thanks for this video Carl.
So happy to see Vermont glove mentioned. By far the best gloves I’ve ever worn. The jefflow mitt is a must for any one that snowboards or skis. I had to buy the work gloves after for everyday use. Truly no better glove
I literally just found hanks belts a week ago, bought their steel core belt, I was able to use it in place of a strap to lift a 1500lb spool of wire at work, nuts
I wear a Crosbreed holsters belt at work ( found it new for $2 at Goodwill) and it looks quite a lot like the Bonnie from hanks. I would not be surprised if they actually made the belt for CBH. Btw my go-to for work gloves is midwest glove and the USGI " gloves, heavy, cattlehide " usually made by nationwide glove and Hawkeye but there are many manufacturers. These gloves are affordable and tough as nails though they take awhile to break in. The midwest gloves are definitely on the more affordable side and it shows, but I love their sherpa lined buffalo mittens. Got a couple pairs for $20 each at Home depot a couple years ago, they had a lot of loose leather fuzz coming off for a long time but after that they are perfectly fine. I suppose they just don't use a premium cut of buffalo leather, but after that fuzzs all wears off there are no other issues.
Left out a northwest staple Northstar gloves in Tacoma. According to Rose Anvil Whites are still made the same way with the same slips but time will tell. I American made Danners went downhill pretty fast after the buyout.
If any of you live in or stop by DFW, I highly suggest Odin Leather Goods. Just recently, they made me a heavy duty belt that's 20 ounces thick. Odin will also make a shell cordovan wallet upon request.
You should try out Left Filed and do some reviews for sure. I have several pieces from them. The greaser fit denim from them has a comfortable workwear fit.
I wonder if you would consider making a video on American, Australian, British, Europium, Dutch, Japan more first and second national country’s. I’d just like to see what country’s have the highest of quality clothing specifically and other countries rankings.
Just recently heard of Silverado boots made in somerset Pennsylvania. What see appears to be a good American boot for the 220-270$ price range. They use American oil tanned leather and some use American made soles, some are vibram. Would like to hear review or reports.
Hi there. Just curious. Have you done a video primarily for headgear? For example caps, hats. My head is kind of big for Asian, so am always on lookout for Caucasian size headgear if possible. I like to put on something on days which I am just too lazy to comb the hair.
I buy a lot of Sugarcane and Buzz Ricksons clothing from Japan. Shipping charges and customs fees for anything from America is prohibitive, usually twice the price of the item.
I wish mills fleet farms were more widespread, they have there own brand field and forest outfitters that have imo killed out carhartt in my area for workwear
Bags made in the USA Great review! I traveled for the first time with a four wheeled suitcase and I gotta say don’t think I can go back. 😂 but these bags are definitely way cooler and better looking than a hard shell carry on.
You have got to check out Overland Sheepskin from Colorado. Incredible, epic shearling coats, gloves, hats, and more. Best “Game of Thrones” style I’ve found and soo warm.
HardenCO wants $175 for a canvas Fanny pack or $275 for the leather version. You can imagine what their other stuff costs. Thought I’d spare the less rich folk (like myself) from taking time to check it out

Your doing a great job brother I appreciate the effort to showing people quality products
Whiteknuckler Brand is one of my favorites.
Also love my Hanks mechanics belt!

Camber hoodies are amazing. I have like 6 in different colors.
Left Field too! The greaser fit jeans are awesome.
For real, camber is like a hidden american treasure

I have made in USA big bill work flannels. One of my best purchases ever so durable and comfortable and an excellent fit. Fantastic purchase
Could you please show who has the really good Overalls..thank you

Still waiting for that Weatherwool review ✋️🙄

Working on it!

Hanks belts is truly the best belt company, its my everyday work belt, and it hasn’t stretched or sagged even a bit
LOVE my Occidental belt! Nicks are the most awesomest boots
Wearing Triple Aught Design jacket right now. Good stuff.
I have several hanks belts. I’ll never wear any other brand again, definitely won’t be disappointed
I love the belt I have from hanks. Carry my leatherman and my CCW and the belt never sags or twists.
I wish I could have got one of the heat strapes/nicks boots/weather wool Patriot jacket! I missed it! Hoping they might do another collab sometime!
You should try out Left Filed and do some reviews for sure. I have several pieces from them. The greaser fit denim from them has a comfortable workwear fit.
Love this series!
I’ve got a Hanks belt, wear it everyday and had it for a few years now, my wife also got me one of their wallets and I do like it a lot
Ayyye wearing my hanks belt right now. I got the thinner one so it's rolled a tiny bit and stretched a little but so far so good.
Atlas 46 is heavily tending towards tool rolls, bags, and belts, but their recent clothing introductions have looked solid.
Dunno where my comment went but Mean Gene Leathers! Great stuff. Been wearing their stuff for years....
Have the Occidental belt… very nice!
Need this type of video every year, so much to cover! Really enjoy your videos, my wallet my not.
Thanks brother, I hope you’ve been well!
I would also like to recommend a company out of New York called Grown & Sewn. They are awesome.
left field will provide you a discount if you are a union tradesmen, highly recommend
Heat Holders makes the warmest socks and gloves that I’ve ever experienced by far. You should check them out
Thank you for the recommendation bro! I'll absolutely check them out!
I wonder if you would consider making a video on American, Australian, British, Europium, Dutch, Japan more first and second national country’s. I’d just like to see what country’s have the highest of quality clothing specifically and other countries rankings.
I would recommend doing a review of some of the stuff from Black Bear Brand 👍
I have Bader and they are great!
Have a great day Carl!

I havent yet, but definitely will be soon!

Autoplay got me again 🙃
I have a premier belt from hanks in my cart... next week its comin home with me

I want a Hank's Montana bison belt to go with my Nick's BuilderPros.
Hanks belts are the best!!

You really need to add a t-shirt to your merch line that says, "Carl Spent My Money"
Hahahaha that’s a fantastic merchandise idea!
@@CarlMurawski it's all yours. Throw me a t-shirt when you print 'em.
GRIP 6 belts are great! i have their wallet as well.
Greasepoint workwear! GPW salute…best fitting pants for work. Check em out tho!
The brothers crisp out of Hartford that make boots
Noticed that Ship John hasn’t made one of these videos nor is their Wills Jacket review in the MUSA playlist. 🤔
No reason behind that at all, I just dont think they're a true workwear brand. More of a heritage style brand.
@@CarlMurawski makes sense. Was just curious.
I see Carl Murawski in my feed and I click
🔥🔥🔥
Wesco!
3:29 big chungus came back haunting me
Surprised not to see 1620 here
They were in the first video
I wish hardenco was a little less expensive
Bradley Mountain
Thorogood boots
600.00 boots, 375.00 pants? I’m out.
Whats a guy got to do to get you to check out Atlas 46?? Granted, I don't recommend their work jeans, BUT EVERYTHING ELSE ROCKS
I keep their tool roll in my Jeep. Great buy, would purchase again. Same company that makes them does OEM for Hill People Gear, and First Spear.
Round House now are being made in Asia,poor quality !!!
1620 workwear , the pants are the best.
