The Return to American Craft: Why More Brands Are Manufacturing in the U.S.

The Shift Toward American-Made Apparel

After decades of offshoring, the garment industry is seeing a return to its roots. Global disruptions, rising overseas costs, and increased scrutiny over labor practices are forcing brands to rethink their supply chains. At the same time, American consumers are becoming more conscious—choosing to support U.S.-based businesses over mass-produced imports. Sustainability, quality, and transparency have become non-negotiables. The fast fashion model is giving way to slower, more intentional manufacturing. This is where The Massing Group comes in.

Why The Massing Group Is Leading the Way in U.S. Garment Manufacturing

Based in Los Angeles, The Massing Group partners with brands that value craftsmanship, consistency, and ethical manufacturing. We provide full-package development, sampling, and production under one roof—allowing fashion labels to scale without sacrificing quality. In a climate where small batch manufacturing, rapid prototyping, and direct collaboration are key, domestic production offers more control and agility than overseas factories. More than ever, Made in USA is not just a label—it's a statement of values. Our team helps brands build those values into every stitch.
