Manufacturing in the USA
We often hear that Made in the USA is a dying thing. Too often this is true, and we end up spending less but getting less. One place where that trend is being bucked is in small-scale manufacturing, especially for luggage and brief cases. In the search for an organizational tool, I found Rickshaw Bags. They have a video that shows what happens when you order a bag and how it gets made. It's worth a look:
They also have a fresh bag feed that lets you see photos of your new bag as it is made, by hand, for you.
Maybe if we were all willing to spend a little more on good quality stuff, we could make things a little better around here.
I also forgot to mention, that they use a reusable mailing pouch (that your mail back to them) instead of a lot of packaging.
