WHERE IS MY PRODUCT MADE?
While we’re a design company, and not a manufacturing company, we do our best to source our original products from US-based manufacturers. The way we do this is by finding products indicating they are Made in the USA, and trusting they are telling us the truth!
Ourselves? We’re (currently) based in suburban Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA. Specifically Hales Corners, Wisconsin. Even more specifically, in a small room in a home basement in Hales Corners, Wisconsin.
Overall, we want to be extra-open about where we get everything, so keep reading to find out…

NOTE: Infant and Toddler hoodies have recently been discontinued by our supplier. We are actively seeking new, American made hoodies for our munchkin customers.
Due to a change in product availability, we have temporarily discontinued our tote bag line. We hope to get some new American-made ones up soon!
Our Backpacks are procured by Metzger & Sons Midwest Designs via Manual Woodworkers and Weavers, who manufactures and prints them at their Hendersonville, North Carolina facility.
While they are manufactured in North Carolina, they do use some imported materials (we are told it’s the shoulder straps), so they technically can’t carry the “Made in America” tag per the FTC. However, after talking with you, our customer, we found that this is still a product you want, and find since the vast majority of the work is done in America, we should keep it on hand.
HOW EVERYTHING ELSE WORKS
If you need to return a product, please follow the instructions included in the package your product came in.
So…here’s the thing. We’re not very savvy with all the cookies and pixels and all that nonsense. We promise we won’t sell your information to ANYONE…both because the think that’s kind of a lousy thing to do, but also because we don’t even know how.
We might use your info to shoot you an e-mail from ourselves every now and then, but even at that, it’s not very often.
First and foremost, we keep your personal information secure by not even collecting most of it! Can’t lose what we don’t have!
However, we know the thing you’re MOST concerned about is your credit card information. We use Square as our payment service provider. They’re the same folks who probably run the cash register at your local coffee shop. They handle all payment information, and have all the infrastructure necessary to keep it safe. We at Metzger and Sons don’t see it, don’t touch it, don’t have any inkling what it may be, nor do we want to.
The only information we at Metzger and Sons collect in house is your name/address/e-mail etc and the stuff you bought. And since only one person (Metzger himself!) has access to anything, and he ain’t talking, all that info is safe and secure behind the latest SSL web encryption.
