neck gaiters that we have available in our product range!  All of our straight cut 2 layered neck 
gaiters are at least one inch taller for greater coverage range, some have a built in top edge shock 
cord system for securing it anywhere on your face and all of our neck gaiters are built with 
“thermal wind blocking, breathable, DWR water repellent outer shell layers” for keeping your face
warmer and drier.  We also have exclusively designed “drop pad neck gaiters” that were 
developed for sealing more cold air out and for keeping the upper chest core warmer – longer.  
We provide you with better options for “breaking away” from the use of one layered fleece neck 
gaiters and face trapping wet mush faced balaclava’s, though the use of one of our hats and 
matching in with the correct neck gaiter for your next adventure.   If you start thinking outside of 
the “status quo box”, then you’ll start getting actual performance for your money, better results 
and great gear items that are 100% built in Wisconsin – USA !

Breathwarmers of Michigan make Breathwarmers, which are cold-air warming masks.  They are 
made of soft polar fleece and designed to hug the face to prevent glasses fogging. These scarfs 
can be worn on the face and quickly pulled down when going indoors and looks like a fashionable 
scarf inside your coat.  Originally marked for people with lung/heart problems, we now have 
branched out to children's masks, hunters and winter sports masks.  We make a very functional 
affordable scarf which is totally constructed and made in Michigan by a Chronic Obstructive 
Pulmonary  (COPD). I am that patient and the CEO of Breathwarmers.
Snowshoes Made in the USA

Iverson Snowshoes For over 50 years our craftsmen have been handcrafting the finest traditional 
snowshoes, right here in the USA. All are based on designs that have been perfected through the 
eons. We strive to mix tradition with technology while staying true to our cause. No techie terms 
or slick marketing slogans, just the best snowshoes for the true enthusiasts.
Winter Outerwear Made in America

Wintergreen Northern Wear We know what works. We have to. The outdoors is our way of life. 
We live, design, sew and sell our gear in Minnesota’s northern border wilderness. We began in 
1985 by designing gear for our first expedition to the North Pole. Since then, we’ve explored just 
about every cold place on the planet, from Greenland to the Russian Arctic—all with our own 
gear. Serious field-testing. MADE IN USA We take great pride in being one of the largest private 
employers in a small remote town where jobs are scarce but garment making talents and pride in 
workmanship are in abundance. We’re one of the last full-line outdoor clothing makers in the U.S.
Our country has become a throw away society because we can get cheap goods from overseas. 
Wintergreen clothing is made to last so if it means purchasing a garment made by an American 
worker at a higher price, we feel this is a good thing. Buy less, keep it longer and throw away 
less!

Technical Advantage Gear – We only build cold weather Winter gear that is designed to actually 
work, unlike some of the import brands and we build 100% of our gear and accessories in 
Wisconsin – USA .Our gear is designed to “actually” keep you warmer and drier when outside in 
the elements and we design it for American sized bodies.  Whether you’re shoveling snow, 
walking the dog, snow skiing, ice fishing, snowmobiling, snowshoeing, mountain climbing, sled 
dog racing, working construction or going on a major expedition to the North or South Pole, we 
have gear items that will work for you and then some! We build in more “asset value” for your 
money on our Mitts, Hats, Headbands, Neck Gaiters, Base Layers, Liner Socks and other gear, 
with items available for men, women and juniors. Our playing range is from +32F to -100F below
zero, so we're sure to have gear items that will make you more comfortable when you’re outside 
in the cold weather months doing what you need to do! All we ask is that you start with just one 
of our gear items and surprise yourself.

Wolfsong Wear Since 1997 we have designed, tested and redesigned all of our outdoor clothing 
so that each piece of outerwear is the warmest, most comfortable, best looking, and as functional 
as can be. They are all locally handmade with the highest quality materials. We use durable, warm
Woolrich Wool on the outside and soft comfortable Malden Mills 300 weight polar on the inside. 
Waxwear waxed canvas (like Shackleton) is used for our Nor'easter shells.

Freeride Systems and the Prospect Pants Co. of Colorado started business in Leadville, Colorado 
producing specific webbing gear for skiing and snowboarding.  Due to customer demand for 
different products made in the USA, Freeride introduced high quality technical jackets.  Now 
Freeride has expanded its lines to include casual jackets, pants, shorts, belts and more.  All 
products are sewn in Colorado.

what they do and what they buy. They seek out the best-made, most reputable technical gear. We 
take great pride in serving the common needs of all our users in the Military and US Armed 
Forces, law enforcement, and the outdoor enthusiast. This demanding, elite audience feels no
