Hmmm? I'll buy your product!

 I'll be getting a pile of this stuff. Been holding off on new rain gear and looks what is about to hit the market!!

My buddy up here also wants a Stone Sun shirt and matching pants to chase elk in here this fall. He's one of those guys that overheats easily and is excited to get his hands on some TUSXhunter apparel!

arrow flynn,

We respect your stance and opinion.
TUSX is based out of the South Pacific. Tony tried his best  to get his apparel manufactured in Australia  but  based on the design concepts and availability of material,  it wasn't an option.

Yes, this company is not based in the United States and the product is not manufactured in the United States of America.

I am considering bringing this apparel line to the US. So far I can't find a factory that can't manufacture these products with the desired designs and materials. Maybe you can help me out? I've already talked to a few other US outdoor apparel companies who had to turn elsewhere for production.

So if you can help, I'll need a company with the desired materials, a printing company that can match the pantones of our camoflage and finally someone to contruct the garment to suit our needs.


Thank you,

Ryan

I found one of the few responses that I've received from a US based Outdoor Apparel Company...


"We tried having our gear made in the USA. Since Clinton signed NAFTA, it drove all of the technical fabric manufacturing out of business in the US. You can still find cotton made in the US, but all of the fabrics that are used in the outdoor industry are made in Asia. From the start, we always wanted to have our line made in the USA. After searching ourselves, we finally resigned to the fact we were going to have to have our fabric made overseas, but we still wanted to have the garments made here. We imported all of our fabric over to the US to have it made here. We lost 2 years trying to find a facility that could get the cut and sew done for us here in the US. We finally gave up and shipped all of the fabric back overseas. It was really discouraging that we couldn't find a place that could do the technical sewing at a half-way reasonable cost, but that industry was gutted when NAFTA was enacted. We are continuing to look at other options for having the cut and sew work done. But the sad reality is, at minimum the fabrics are going to be imported for the foreseeable future. That is how it is for all of the products within the outdoor and hunting world."

Ready for the winter weight. Looks great, especially that zipper silencer. I wish it was American even though its not an American company but to get high quality produced here is not practical for any small company that is trying to make any income.

It looks very nice.

I had a friend try to get a product made in the US but the cost and lack of workmanship was insane. He finally had to go overseas.

Thanks Gang, now back to the apparel...

The STONE Sun Shirt features an extendable cuff system that provides both skin protection and concealment. When not in use it discreetly folds away. We believe this system will be particularily appreciated by bowhunters. This should not impede the use of most gloves and tabs.

This feature is an absolute winner.
I can second what Ryan has stated, when I tested the Stone sun shirt in the Northern territories of Australia I came back with no sun burn on my hands.
The only other way to combat this would be a full camouflage glove, which I am sure a lot of you will agree isn't the best in hot weather and it becomes difficult holding your bow.

There was also no ill affect with release or anchoring.
Cheers
Mark.

Ryan,

I think the camo in the first picture of you looks awesome!  If it wasn't for your face and head you were invisible.  I think you guys have an awesome concept going.

Here's a look at our "3 stage collar" to provide extra neck protection from the sun.
