Maybe USA made vise grips?

The Q&A says this set comes with the shirt, so my guess is these might be some USA made vise grips?

I'm personally a grip-on fan, but for those of you who like the vise grips, maybe you want to try this out? You can also use a $10 off $50 coupon that I bet you can find via google.

On the bottom left of box in has the sticker with usa and flag

Hi, how can I help you today?

visitor:
I am looking at item# 15235 is it USA made?

Don C.:
I'd be happy to help you with that!

Don C.:
The product is made in china.

visitor:
Ok thanks. The picture posted on the site shows they are USA made

visitor:
May be a good idea to change that, I would imagine some may expect to receive a USA made set instead of the Chinese stuff.

Don C.:
I will let the management team know about this error.

Don C.:
Do you have any other questions or products I can help you with today?

visitor:
no that is it

Cheaper on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00004SBCI/?tag=atomicindus08-20

Note, one of the reviewers there says it's made in China.

Hell, the shirt probably isn't made in the USA either.

Not made in the USA per the reviews

 

[mmack66]

Maybe the box it comes in is made in the USA.

Well damn got my hopes up.

I can't stand when companies make t shirts like this. Craftsman does the same thing. All the t shirts are usa flag bs.

I'm guessing this shirt that now comes with this set is different than what is pictured, since it says right on it "American made" and Vise Grips are now made overseas. The picture is clearly 15 years old...

Don't even bother with the China coo Irwin vice-grips. Very poor. Find some old beat up used Petersens any way you can and be happy another 50 years with them. - Paul

Maybe they'll take 15 year old dollars? Price would be about $45...

I'm surprised the customer service rep even had an answer for you.
