It is nice that Brooks has one factory still open

they closed a union shirt factory in patterson NJ in 1989.

they had two shirt factories in North carolina. the one that was making sport shirts is gone

a small factory near garland used to make boxer shorts and Pj bottoms was also closed about 10-12 years ago.

the modular sewing system has been around for years

Does anyone know what articles are made at the Garland factory or any other local factory for that matter? Or is that the only one left?

Shirts. AFAIK, they make all of the made in US Brooks Brothers and BB Black Fleece shirts. They also do contract work for designers and other companies
