Artifact is a small-batch studio that has cut, sewn and finished bags, aprons and canvas-and-leather accessories in Omaha since 2010. The own-site claim is precise, and usefully so: the majority of the line is made in-house in Omaha, with select goods coming from outside manufacturing partners.
That honest qualification is why the record sits at the second mark. The Omaha manufacturing is real and independently corroborated by the studio’s retail address, but “the majority” is not “all,” and material origin is not accounted for on the brand’s own page. The lower mark reflects both, and the partner-made share is flagged for the next check.
