Mostly yes
Bean Products has been sewing in Chicago since 1987, with the tagline "Handmade in Chicago since 1987." Its FAQ says "Many Bean Products items are made at our Chicago facility. Some products or materials are sourced from other suppliers."
| Product line | Made in | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Yoga bolsters (cotton, organic cotton, hemp, vinyl) | Sewn in Chicago, IL with imported materials | Mixed |
| Other cushions and products made at the Chicago facility | Chicago, IL | Made in USA |
| Products sourced from other suppliers | Not stated | Mixed |
For the yoga bolsters, the brand gives its own origin line: the cotton and organic cotton bolsters, round and rectangular, are "Sewn in Chicago with imported materials." So the sewing and finishing happen in Chicago, but the fabric and some other inputs are imported, and not every item in the catalog is made in-house.
How we checked: On 2026-10-23 we read Bean Products' FAQ, its yoga bolster collection page and the Organic Cotton Yoga Bolster product page on beanproducts.com.
