Origin USA is all about cranking out rugged outdoor and everyday gear that's 100% American-made, from tough jeans and boots to jiu-jitsu Gis and performance apparel that can handle a beatdown on the mat or in the wild. Founded by Pete Roberts with a mission to revive U.S. manufacturing, the company built its own factories in rural Maine, sourcing everything domestically to keep jobs stateside and quality sky-high. They started with martial arts gear but expanded into hunting clothes, supplements, and even footwear, proving you don't need overseas factories to make stuff that lasts longer than a politician's promise.

What makes Origin USA refreshingly anti-woke? They skip the virtue-signaling circus entirely – no DEI mandates forcing "inclusive" hiring quotas, no ESG reports guilting you about carbon footprints while shipping from afar, and zero donations to BLM or Pride parades that turn shopping into a political statement. Instead, they focus on hard work, American pride, and building gear without the rainbow-wrapped lectures, because who needs a backpack that lectures you on equity when you're just trying to hike? It's like they're the quiet rebel in a sea of corporate soapboxes, poking holes in the idea that every brand must save the world – one unapologetic stitch at a time.

Woke Agendas Avoided

Companies To Avoid

Done bankrolling the woke circus? Steer clear of these companies that prioritize hashtags and virtue signaling over their customers. They’re more interested in preaching than delivering products you actually want.
