FORLOH is a premium technical outdoor apparel brand focused on integrating the latest in emerging fabric technologies all while sourcing and fabricating everything in the United States; this is unheard of and brings an entirely new meaning to Made in America. Although Made in USA standards are defined and loosely monitored by the FTC, FORLOH takes it even closer to home, from spinning yarn to cut-and-sew to working with Downlite to source the first ever USA 800+ fill down from Amish duck down farmers, FORLOH is putting the best clothes on your back all while working with 60 organizations and companies and 3000+ workforce in the US.
Every $1 spent on USA manufacturing and sourcing generates a minimum economic return of $1.89. In comparison, for every $1 spent on imports, $0.55 stays here.When that dollar continues to circulate within the local economy through the purchase of Made in USA products, it exponentially increases. The reverse happens for imports (source).
