Dehen has knit varsity sweaters, motorcycle sweaters and varsity jackets in Portland since 1920, and the company still operates its own knitting factory there rather than sewing imported cloth. That distinction is why this record sits at the top mark: Dehen knits the fabric, then cuts and sews it, all in Portland.
The one thing the brand’s own site does not settle is where the raw yarn and wool come from. The domestic manufacture is well documented; the fibre origin is not, and it is flagged for the next check rather than assumed.
