100% Made in the USA!
Texas Jeans Company
(made in Asheboro NC) are 100% made in the USA. All components are
sourced from vendors in the USA. Fabric, buttons, zippers etc are
sourced from US vendors.
These are good jeans. well made, double stitched, well made buttonholes etc. Like Levis used to be.
I
found that the sizing was slightly smaller than what I normally wear. I
had to go up a size or two, but other than that, they are perfect for
me.
Pricing is excellent, at $29.99 for the basic jeans
Some as low as $19.99. ($45.99 for the concealed carry jeans and the
flannel lined version) Shipping is reasonable. You'll find that even
with shipping, the price is comparable to what you'll buy in stores for a
comparable pair of jeans.
Check them out!

Edge Pro Knife Sharpening systems
I've been sharpening knives by hand for all my life. Not everyone has learned this skill, and if you haven't, this appears to be a good solution. Comes highly reccomended by reader Roger.

Skin Care Products, Made in America....
Preface to FTC, FCC, or whoever the hell else cares--I bought and paid for these products myself--more than once, thank you very much.....
I'm always searching for the least-chemical, healthiest stuff for my face and body that actually works. I've recently found a place, in the USA, that fits the bill. Plus they are sustainable beekeepers, which I think is pretty nice.
Meadowlake Farm, has honey-based and other organic skin care products. I got their Flawless face cream, their face wash, a couple bars of soap. Later I tried some of their honey salve with hive isolates as well as their face cream with hive isolates. I've also got some of their jewelweed soap and salve in wait for when I wander through the poison ivy again.
While the soap is soap, the rest of their products that I've tried have been fantastic. No breakouts, better looking skin, everything you want in a product. I have a friend with rosacea who tried their products (Flawless and Cream with Hive Isolates as well as their toner and face wash) and can now go without heavy foundation to cover the redness. Truly good stuff. While face stuff is pretty personal, I've got a sample of two whole people who are wickedly happy with their products. They seem pretty pricey, but you get a pretty huge jar of stuff (I usually have littler jars that I put stuff in so I don't contaminate the big jar.
Just my opinion, and it's nice to find something that works for me.
I know this is a bit more girly than some other posts on here, but Og, the blog-starter, said he didn't mind my adding a bit of the feminine to the mix.

CAPPS uniform shoes
I have just purchased these Capps Uniform shoes.
I tend to wear plain oxfords and these are properly sewn together, welted construction with a real Goodyear welt.
The quality of the shoes is good, I've just gotten them tonight nad worn them around a bit to get a feel for them. These will have to be broken in, like leather shoes used to, but I expect they will feel like a second skin once I do. I will comment as they wear in and we'll see how they last long term. It was nice to pick up the insole and see the nails holding the heel on, like the old days.
