Yes, we’ve been on an extended hiatus — but we’re back with some very exciting news to announce. In early 2013, we’ll be launching a new venture called Hank. Our mission is simple: we want to support American manufacturers. We’ll help them sell their products to a wider audience and grow their businesses. Hank will be your source for high-quality American-made clothing and goods.

We’ve already identified over 150 American companies, from one-man operations to organizations with over 1,500 employees, that make outstanding products in the United States. Despite the abundance of products out there, it’s not always easy to discover and purchase them. Hank is changing that. We’re working with several manufacturers and building a collection of goods and clothing that’s made in America. We’ve detailed a bit more in our introductory post: What is Hank?
