WHO WE ARE

Origin is America’s next big brand. We make everything from dirt-to-shirt right here in our Maine and North Carolina-based factories. Workwear, Huntwear, Fightwear and Lifewear are the core of our business, and we are the first brand to manufacture footwear in Franklin County, Maine in the last 30 years. We pride ourselves in making heirloom quality, durable goods right here in America.

Origin was first launched in 2011. In 2013, our founder, Pete Roberts, with the help of friends and family, cleared a forest and built a small timber-frame factory, with the sole purpose to make the world’s BEST Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu gear. Since then, we have grown, now headquartered in the heart of downtown Farmington, Maine and Asheboro, North Carolina, and expanding our product offerings to include apparel, denim jeans, outerwear, footwear, and JOCKO FUEL nutritional supplements. Check out our website to learn more about the products we pour our hearts into:
