PROJECT US is an initiative created by US Blanks

We partner with causes, charities, not-for-profits and other well-intentioned organizations, helping them raise awareness and funds. We sponsor events, donate t-shirts and offer deep discounts, and use our platform to spread the love.

Socially and Environmentally Conscious Manufacturing

US Blanks is a socially responsible apparel manufacturer based in Los Angeles. We produce high-quality products made ethically, with timeless style and value. 

As part of Project US and in an effort to minimize our environmental impact, US Blanks keeps all manufacturing local. We cut, sew, dye and finish all our styles in LA, helping to create jobs, and support the local community. We’ve also done a deep dive into sourcing sustainable fabrics, offering styles in organic cotton, Modal ® from beech trees, hemp yarn blends, and upcycled and recycled fabric.
