Step inside one of Pennsylvania's premier manufacturers of custom athletic apparel and performance outerwear for an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour of Boathouse Sports.
This one-of-a-kind experience takes you inside one of the nation's most iconic performance apparel brands, best known for the Stevenson Jacket, originally designed to protect U.S. Olympic rowers from harsh winter weather during the 1976 Montreal Olympic Games.
More recently, Boathouse Sports has gained national attention as the manufacturer behind Jason Kelce's brand, Underdog Apparel, showcasing the continued strength of American-made production.
During the event, you'll explore the manufacturing floor and see firsthand how apparel is made, from design and patternmaking to cutting, sewing, finishing, and packaging.
Along the way, you'll meet the people behind the process, including Olympic rower and Boathouse Sports owner John Strotbeck, learn about the ins and outs of manufacturing in Pennsylvania, and gain a rare, behind-the-scenes look at our regional textile supply chain in action.
After the tour, stick around for light refreshments and networking with fellow attendees, industry professionals, and the Boathouse team!
Whether you're a designer, maker, student, manufacturer, fiber enthusiast, or simply curious about how clothing is made, this is a unique opportunity to experience American garment manufacturing up close.
