Fashion Friday: 1791 Clothing
Radio personality Glenn B
eck recently launched an American-made clothing line called 1791. According to The Blaze, the line embodies the "original blueprint" of America:
The main thrusts of the 1791 line are to remember where we came from as Americans—to revisit that “original blueprint” of our Founding Fathers—and to restore values and efforts that have made America great. The 1791 designs “will be a constant reminder to those that wear it that we are a people of merit,” Beck said, and that maintaining those rights we’ve cherished since 1791 don’t stick around without “great responsibility.”
And as Newt Gingrich pointed out earlier in the week on Beck’s show, 1791 was also an important milestone in American manufacturing history. It was the year that Alexander Hamilton launched America’s first industrial policy.
