US Standard Apparel

US Standard Apparel was founded in 2018 by Sean Sassounian and Jakob Deitell.

When they met, Sean had been operating SAS Textiles for close to 30 years as the premier knitter on the West Coast, supplying fabric to Amiri, John Ellliott, YEEZY and many other premium US-produced apparel companies.

While Jakob had been managing production for multiple brands in the same sphere and, consequently, purchasing fabric from SAS.

The idea to become partners and form an apparel company occurred organically, as a reaction to the rapidly growing domestic apparel manufacturing market.

US Standard Apparel was born out of mutual respect and a shared passion for the highest quality domestic production.

During the initial COVID shutdown and subsequent supply chain shortages, USSA shifted focus to ECOCYCLE, an in-house stock program of recycled/organic blanks.

Today, many of the largest brands in the industry utilize ECOCYCLE blanks, while other brands that require more specific bodies have built out USSA Private Label programs.

Knitting, cutting & sewing, printing, embroidery and full finishing are all done in-house in Vernon, CA.

USSA is one of the only true vertically integrated apparel widgets in the United States.
The goal is to build the premier full package knits manufacturing facility in America.
