Have written about Williams' store
before, but stopped by last weekend and took some shots. Pics pretty much speak for themselves. Billy Brownlee is the young man keeping the traditions alive there. Place is a must-see. Bonus, the
Dorset Farmers Market abutts the store on summer Sundays. The place is a mass of made in USA and particularly VT-made products. Huge Johnson Woolen Mills selection. Separate ladies department too. Didn't even shoot the Carhartt areas... trust me, selection is huge.
Further reading.
Billy also gave me the straight dope on finding the older cut of Carhartt pants. Look for the coin pocket seam. The old (better, no doubt, well known, why did they change...) pairs have the seam right up against the waistband seam as below right (newer pair on the left).
H.A. Spear & Sons Gloves. Made in Essex Jnct, VT.
Work glove heaven...
Walking Boss Supenders. Made in Bloomfield, VT.
Maybe the last three two Carhartt camo hoods around... I already have mine.

Nice work, love all those pics
great posting !
Nice! Is that a big roll of fabric hanging from the ceiling?
the roll of burlap, not sure what that is for, but like it. for easy fencing i think...
I was looking up info about this store and I came across your blog. I was at HN Williams this weekend, and in fact, they had 4 of those camo hoods in stock upstairs. Anyway, I like your blog, it has some pretty cool content.
