First off I just found out about Rokslide from a Local Sporting Goods Store (Sportmans WH) and this looks like a Great website and members!

Going on a Brown Bear hunt in SE Alaska this Spring 2017 and was getting ready to pull the trigger on one of the main brands rain gear and layering systems. The design and reviews seem phenomenal and has a great story behind it and Awesome Customer Service. I ordered a Guide Jacket and some shirts to try out. I got them in and the Quality and design were great! The one down side was I had assumed they were made in the USA but were not.

I would like to try and stay with a Good Quality USA Made Brand if possible, What Top Quality Brands of Performance Hunting gear are made in the Good Ole USA?

You can find a lot of great made in USA hunting products, but clothing doesn't seem to have many options. Too hard to compete with the cheap foreign labor I guess. I'm not aware of any, or at least have not worn any that I could give you a review on. I still would not let that scare you off. A lot of great US based companies, with items designed in US, and US employees in the industry.

Ibex makes a fair number of their wool items in Canada and a few in the USA. They also state on each item where the wool was sourced, where it was woven, and where it was cut/sewn. Mostly very good stuff.

Not many. Only one I can think of right away is Beyond Clothing. Also, check out the Kifaru Lost Park Parka for a heavy coat.
I am wearing the lost Park parka right now. Gritty bowmen jokes about it not being stylish, but I am rocking it in multicam as a daily winter coat. Sure, it's a pain in the ass to pull over on and off, but it is helping me survive Swedish winter fantastically.

Yeah, Cordura isn't exactly the most fashionable thing. The style reminds me of the old Starter jackets from the 90s, not sure if they got popular over there. I need to try and convince A-Aron to make me a tall one, but I doubt it's gonna happen so I might have to settle for an oversized baggy one. If I'm gonna spend that much on a jacket I want it to fit.

Game gear hunting is made in the US. I cant speak for the funtionality of the clothing expect for their compresson shorts which are good quality and function as good as underarmour.

Just remembered another one. Game Gear Hunting claims to be USA made, but their prices make me question that claim. I find it fishy that they can sell stuff cheaper than companies that manufacture overseas.

I know socks arent necessarily performance gear but Darn Tough are great and I just picked up a couple of pairs of Farm to Feet that seem great as well - all made in the USA.

Triple Aught Design makes some very good pants in earth tones.
Beyond Clothing has some decent stuff, and some of their baselayers are on sale (some of which are same fabric as Patagonia Cap thermal weight)
There is always heritage brands like Filson, which still has a few pieces worth mentioning like the Whipcord pants.
Duckworth makes domestic merino products
Melanzana makes quality fleece products in CO.

Yeah, unfortunately we don't have many choices of made in USA clothing or gear. Probably the most applicable to our interests here is Beyond Clothing and Wild Things Gear.

Check out my buddy's new camo line. He's a former Navy SEAL and avid outdoorsman. It's called SixSite. All done in the USA although the fabric/textiles come from overseas.

I own all of the early season gear but haven't taken the cold weather gear in the field yet. It's rock solid though.
