My name is Alex Goulet.
I'm the co-author of Crafted with Pride, along with Willie DeCanto.
Craft of Pride is a directory of clothing, footwear, and accessories made in the United States.
We kind of informally call this the Yellow Pages of Made in USA.
It's got over 1,400 brands from high-end designer apparel to the more kind of functional pedestrian activewear, workwear.
So you're basically just kind of flipping through looking for things you need within these different categories.
Willie and I met about a decade ago.
Both of us started our interest in American-made gear with more of like a vintage perspective.
Both of us were working in the vintage clothing industry.
And I think that the turning point of just like a casual interest to something more serious came when a factory that we were visiting in Connecticut just went out of business one day.
This company was manufacturing hats for some of the biggest menswear companies in America.
Things started rolling.
Our heads were thinking, geez, how do we do something to prevent more of these companies from going out of business?
We had a little short list that we had put together, and I think it was something like 200 companies.
At some point, I said to Willie, well, we're pretty much near the end here.
I think we've got them all.
And a year later, after months and months of research, we had had that list grow to 750.
The second edition has 1,400 companies.
And then the new edition coming out is going to have almost 1,000 more companies.
It was priced at $35 for this past edition.
