Smartwool's website says "Knit in Korea" under features
I have an uncle who was a manager at a wool-carpet factory, and their entire shop was shut down and moved overseas. I'm a little cranky about the loss of US manufacturing.
It's bloody hard to find anything made in the USA any more. And we wonder why we have so few jobs and why our economy sucks? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKv6RcXa2UI
Too bad Wigwam doesn't make tights: http://www.wigwam.com/AboutUs.aspx
Guess I'll be sticking with Hue (made in USA) non-wool footless tights... until my patriotic pipe-dreams collapse under the siren-song of wool lust.

I dunno, of the four companies it says 95% of No Nonsense is made in USA, 75% of Burlington products. The others: HUE, CALVIN KLEIN & JOCKEY no such claim so probably all imported. But Wigwam's made here. Guess I'll review it. Originally Posted by KnottedYet
