Super Sweet Sweatshirts by Good Measure

You know that stage of the night when you’re in the bar, the empty beer bottles are stacked up and you and your comrades get to talking about business. And there, slumped over the bar as they call last orders you hatch the million dollar idea that you’re sure is the niche everyone has been waiting for. Well that’s how the concept behind supreme separates label Good Measure was born. Except it was in an English pub. And the plan actually came into fruition.

Identified simply and a little mysteriously, as just John, Carl and Fred, the trio of beer-swilling sweatshirt freaks set out to produce the ultimate sweatshirt. They wanted to create a beautiful basic that ought to appear in every style conscious man’s wardrobe. To do that, the three blue-sky thinkers wanted to oversee each process of the production, from knitting their own fabric to the fastidiously crafted swing tags.

They also felt passionately that where possible, all production should be based in the UK, as a tribute to Lancashire, their stomping ground and an area formerly known as the centre of the cotton industry. After years of door knocking and planning, the first Good Measure sweatshirt, the M-21 crew neck, is now available to buy and has been very recently joined by ‘Good’ limited edition t-Shirt, which stands as the brand’s second ode to vintage US sportswear.

Every design detail of each piece has been so scrupulously pored over, that even the most OCD dresser would be forced to tip his hat. Hand dyed, sumptuous 350g loop back jersey, ribbed v neck insert, cover stitched seams, bar tacked seams for optimum strength…not bad for a late night lager chat.

Steven Kurutz and American Giant endeavor to create a flannel 100% American made
Follow American Giant to bring flannel back to the USA

What makes the flannel shirt something that stays with us here in America? Is it the quintessential garment of the American worker? Does it make us feel as though we are driving horses across the plains in the old American West? How about working the day away, clearing logs from the Pacific Northwest to supply the entire country with the lumber needed to build houses, decks, and shop fronts? Or maybe we don't have to reach back as far to imagine the flannel renaissance of the 1990s bringing us the nostalgia of our childhood imitating Kurt Cobain on stage. Either way, the flannel is a staple of Americana, and American fashion brand American Giant has spent years attempting to bring that garment back home.

What started out as an article in the New York Times blossomed into a half-decade journey for author Steven Kurutz to chronicle AG's desire to bring flannel-making back to the shores of the United States and to save factory jobs in his new book, American Flannel. As a native of a small town in Pennsylvania, Kurutz has watched his town wither away as factory jobs were shipped overseas. For him, the book was more than a story of American determination; it was a personal connection to a quest to save his own hometown and others like it.
