A LEGACY OF CRAFTSMANSHIP
BUILT IN AMERICA, FOR AMERICA
We, at Colt, have been committed to American manufacturing since 1836 and have supported American workers, craftsmanship and know-how since our inception.
Sam Colt was obsessed with details, innovation and design—and so are we. Quality and details run hand and hand, like the snaps and rivets on our garments made in exactly the size as the original .45 caliber round that made Sam Colt famous. Quality details like reinforced gussets on our shirts ensure your side seams won’t split on our watch.
Colt has always made the best.
While we respect tradition, we embrace a little different way of doing things as leaders not followers. We are brave and bold who lead the way. We make well made garments with timeless style which will only look better with age, adding character and history to each garment.
Colt men are made, not born. Over the past 187 years Colt has helped build soldiers, cowboys, outlaws and gangsters. The spirit of these men is present in every aspect of the collection and used as inspiration for the vision of the brand. Made in USA from start to finish.
