L.C. King Manufacturing Co. of Bristol

[A.J. Holst]

Just discovered this place, care of the Farm Bureau magazine.

Founded 105 years ago, still using a cutting machine installed in 1918, they are the owners of the Pointer Brand of high performance farming and hunting apparel.

Made in the USA from fabric, thread, buttons, and tags sourced from US manufacturers.

Lifetime warranty and according to the 4th generation owner, "you have to commit to wearing it because you have to break it in."

Now that's real denim!

Passing through Bristol? Give them a call to see if factory floor tours running.

Their stuff looks really nice.  Where are you seeing a lifetime warranty?  I haven't located that, and even on high end apparel, that seems surprising on clothing.

I had family that worked there years ago.

In their policies page. I've wore their stuff for years but never exercised their policy because I felt I wore it out rather than have it "fail" on me. I read their policy that same way but some people like to push the issue.

I hope the hipster movement don't raise prices beyond what I've always been willing to pay.
