    The Story behind The Local Branch

    The Local Branch was founded by Blaine and Mackenzie, a maker duo whose story began in 2009 while they were traveling across America in an Airstream trailer, building their craft and shaping a brand around artisan quality, American-made goods, and a life well-traveled.

    What makes the brand special is that it still carries that same spirit today. Their leather and canvas goods are made by hand, in small batches, in Upstate New York, with a focus on slow, thoughtful production rather than mass manufacturing. The brand has grown into a storefront and curated collection, but its foundation remains rooted in the work of real makers, real materials, and goods built with intention.

    The Local Branch fits My American Goods® because it represents exactly what our marketplace is built to celebrate: American craftsmanship, small-batch production, durable design, and products with a real maker story behind them.
