Verification Notes
Veteran-founded apparel company operating its own production facility in Savannah, GA since 2012. Website FAQ explicitly confirms in-house screen printing/embroidery production there. Some imported materials and partner-fulfilled 'Supply Drop' items are disclosed as exceptions to in-house US production. claim-partial (moderate): Nine Line prints/embroiders in-house in Savannah, GA (product pages: 'We employ over 200 hard working Americans and print most of our T-Shirts right at our headquarters in Savannah, GA'). Blank garment origin is not stated for graphic tees and FAQ discloses imported materials and partner Supply Drop items. Amazon origin fields: flag tee and mesh hat 'Made in the USA'; Sasquatch tee 'Made in the USA and Imported'. Existing moderate exception is appropriate. https://www.ninelineapparel.com/pages/faqs "Made to Order: Products made at our Savannah, Georgia headquarters after your order is placed. Supply Drop: Partner products that ship separately and may have different lead times." claim-partial (moderate): Both tee listings (re-read 2026-11-09) carry 'Origin: Made in the USA and Imported' / 'Import Designation: Made in the USA and Imported'. The flag tee also states 'Designed, printed, and packaged in Savannah, GA' (and-Imported + US-city statement = PASS class), so kept. The Sasquatch tee's listing mentions Savannah only as company copy ('Savannah, GA where over 200 hard-working Americans show up every day') - borderline; check. A flag-tee reviewer says 'Made in Indonesia' (reviewer, not proof) - consistent with imported blanks printed in Savannah. Mesh hat origin field 'the USA' - keep. https://www.ninelineapparel.com/pages/faqs "Nine Line operates a real production facility at our headquarters in Savannah, Georgia. We have been doing our own production since 2012. ... Some products may use responsibly sourced imported materials or may ship from trusted partners, such as Supply Drop items."

American-Made Finds
One maker's story, the brands newly listed here, and a few US-made picks, every Thursday.
Nine Line was founded in 2012 and makes the products listed here in Savannah, GA. The site lists 3 verified American-made Nine Line products.
Printed in Savannah since 2012
Nine Line's FAQ says it "operates a real production facility at our headquarters in Savannah, Georgia. We have been doing our own production since 2012." It adds that most of its products are "screen printed, embroidered, produced, packed, and shipped by our own team."
The name comes from the military nine-line medevac request. Co-founder Daniel Merritt is a veteran. In October 2017 the company opened a 60,000-square-foot operations building on Savannah's south side, with about 150 full-time staff at the time, WTOC reported.
Where the US claim stops
Nine Line's own wording is careful. Products are "made, printed, embroidered, packaged, or shipped" from Savannah, and "some products may use responsibly sourced imported materials." A printed shirt can be decorated in Georgia on a blank made elsewhere.
Supply Drop items are fulfilled by outside partners and ship separately. The three items we list, an American flag tee, a Sasquatch UFO shirt and a camo mesh-back hat, state US origin on their live listings. For anything else, read the listing.
