American Apparel wants you to be hip and comfortable inside and out. It designs and makes logo-free T-shirts, tank tops, yoga pants, and other items for men, women, and children -- and does it all from its California-based factory, rather than exporting labor overseas. The company's brands include Classic Girl, Standard American, Classic Baby, and Sustainable Edition, among others. American Apparel boasts more than 260 retail stores located in about 20 countries. Riding the casual loungewear trend, the company is known for its no-sweat factory and the fair treatment of its workers, including up to $19 an hour pay for manufacturers. Sometimes-controversial Dov Charney founded American Apparel in 1997.
