Optimum Nutrition: Quality Protein Powder and Vitamins
:: Great Prices :: Available in 70 Countries :: Diverse Products :: High Quality ::
As an avid gym goer and health enthusiast, I’ve been around the block when it comes to protein powder, gainers, creatine, and vitamins. Fitness supplements, protein, gainers, and vitamins come from all over the world: Germany, Brazil, you name it. I just recently made the switch to GOLD STANDARD WHEY and to my surprise, it was manufactured here in the USA! Curious, I looked into the rest of their lines of fitness vitamins and supplements and low-and-behold, they were all manufactured here in the states.
Looking deeper I found that the company that created the product was called Optimum Nutrition and has its base in the States. Now owned by Glanbia, a international dairy company, the roots of ON have stayed true to fitness, quality, and American made products. Products are sold in over 70 countries and readily available at your local vitamin shop or online. Its a great price for great American made product!

American Optical: A Military Tradition in Sunglasses
:: American Tradition :: Classic Look :: Military Quality :: Great Pricing ::
AO is about as American as you can get when it comes to sunglasses. This company dates back to the 1800s as one of the first American Eyewear manufacturers on the market. Not only are they a pioneer in American eyewear but this particular brand is steeped in military tradition dating back to WWII. U.S. Naval aviators and generals turned these badboys into an American icon. They’ve been issued to millions of servicemen over the years and have now become available in the civilian market! And these classic goggles are the same used in Top Gun and various other military based movies as well!
Also on a personal note, I’ve worn and owned AO “Pilots” my entire life and I’ve loved them since day one. The classic look, the durability, and the “made in USA” engraved on the temple has had me coming back all these years. I’m so happy they’re available to the civilian market now!
Highly Recommend to anyone looking for a good pair of aviators!
