For those of you in need of a great pair of socks, try Hanes. Hanes is benefitting Americans by making their Men's Cushion Ankle Socks in the US. Hopefully this is just the beginning for Hanes' American production and they start making more products in the US.

Spa business is no place to relax
By Ronald D. White, Los Angeles Times
February 12, 2012
Amid the squeal of machinery and the hiss of plastic being molded, the Pomona factory owned by LMS Inc. turns out a signature California creation: the hot tub.
But the squealing and hissing have slowed in recent years, so much so that company President Casey Loyd says the operation these days is less like an assembly line and more like a hospital where "all kinds of babies are coming out at all different times," each a custom job.
"We don't build orphans here," Loyd said. "Every one of these spas has already got a home."
That's one way that LMS, which produces Cal Spas and other well-known lines, has survived an industrywide slump that began well before the recession.
