At American Giant we believe
there is a giant inside of everyone.
WE BELIEVE that with hard work and extra effort everyone has a shot at the American dream.
WE ARE MALCONTENTS. We are never satisfied. We never rest on bygone laurels. For us, good enough is the enemy of great.
And the only way to move this world forward, to change our country for the better and change our attitude from can't to can, is to
not be comfortable with the way things are.
AMERICAN GIANT IS THE REBIRTH of American ingenuity in apparel manufacturing and retail. We were not comfortable with the fact
that when you follow the thread, most clothes we love, Hoodies, t-shirts, and sweats, are made in countries that are so far away, the only
American job it created was a store clerk. So we changed everything. From seed to sewn, what we make and sell is the product of an old
American work ethic and a new American way of doing business. So you can not only be proud of what you wear but be surprised at how
well it's made, how well it fits and the quality of how it feels. We cut no corners. We did this the hard way. We do things the right way.
DON'T GET COMFORTABLE is not just a tagline. It's what drives our philosophy and it's what energizes us every day we come to work.
Thanks for visiting our site.
