The Brooks Brothers Levi's collaboration uses "Made in the USA" as one of its selling points. According to the Brooks Brothers website, "No two brands have done more to outfit the men that build America than Brooks Brothers and Levi's." Indeed, this is the ultimate nationalist pairing for the rugged American.
The Brooks Brothers Levi's collaboration collection includes updated versions of Levi's 501s, 505s and 514s, crafted exclusively for the Brooks Brothers customer.
Implications - Businesses can use national symbols and pride to reach a target audience. By promoting "Made in the USA," a company will attract consumers who place high importance on clothing and products manufactured in America. This nationalist branding also attracts American consumers who are opposed to the harsh working conditions for factory workers in other countries. This type of branding can be adapted to fit other regions to attract specific buyers around the world.
