OFFICIALLY LICENSED BY THE NWSLPA
By providing high-quality, durable clothing made in our factory in Maine we are proving that success does not have to come at the expense of workers or the quality of products we make.
American Roots Fan Gear is made with 100% cotton grown in the USA. Sourcing the finest American materials lessens our environmental impact and uplifts local economies.
We are Union made. Our mission is to create jobs that are more meaningful, fair, and good-paying. We are rebuilding American manufacturing, thread by thread.
RE-GROWING AMERICAN MANUFACTURING
After visiting and old woolen mill and witnessing fluctuating American manufacturing, Ben Waxman and his wife and co-owner Whitney thought: Why not bring this incredible industry, which essentially disappeared in the United States, back to life?
From this vision, American Roots was born.
The idea was simple– create American-made products, and sell to the growing number of people who value ethics, quality, and American sourcing and manufacturing.
Our foundation is built on strong community ties, family values, and a dedicated Union workforce. By prioritizing these principles, we ensure our products reflect our commitment to quality and integrity. We strive to pass on these values to our customers, fostering a connection that goes beyond the products themselves.
The story of American Roots and our All-American Pullover Hoodie is featured in best-selling author, Rachel Slade’s, newest book, Making It in America, The Almost Impossible Quest to Manufacture in the U.S.A. (and How It Got That Way).
