The Tip is 'City Magazines' I was in the magazine section recently and saw the Indianapolis Monthly. The cover title read "Made In Indiana." I read the article and was amazed that all sorts of things were being made in the state. This is contrary to what most American's believe. Most of us think everything is made overseas. We still make the majority of what we consume and our buying tips we call Little Secrets help you realize that. Being from Indiana, I decided to visit several of the referenced web sites and I am proud to say I have purchased some of the best products ever. All thanks to the "City Monthly Magazine". Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Iverson At Iverson's we've been hand crafting the finest traditional wood snowshoes for over 50 years. They're made in the USA, right here in Michigan's Upper Peninsula and trust us when we say, we know snow. It started back in 1954 when Clarence Iverson began building his snowshoes for the State of Michigan. His premise was simple, reduce expended energy by walking on top of the snow, not through it. His designs provided maximum weight distribution for optimum flotation. The news soon spread of the Iverson snowshoe and demand expanded the company into consumer market. Clarence was very picky. He only used the finest materials, premium Michigan White Ash, full grain rawhides, and pure copper hardware. These components are expensive, but well worth the cost when you find yourself in extreme conditions, or when it's time to pass your Iverson's on to the next generation. We hand-craft 17 models of snowshoes in different sizes and all are available laced with traditional rawhide, neoprene or nylon. Our 4 harness options include our brand new Iverson AA and models. Nylon and Neoprene kits are available in 10x40 or 10x46 frames for the do-it-yourselfers. We take great pride in our craft and the ability to match the proper snowshoe to the user. We look forward to breaking a trail with you soon. |
