Why “Made in the USA” Skateboards Matter

Why “Made in the USA” Skateboards Matter — And Why Phyzics Delivers

If you're searching for Made in the USA skateboards, welcome to Phyzics—a brand built on transparency, quality, and a deep love for skateboarding. We proudly manufacture our decks right here in the United States, and we believe that matters—for you, for the industry, and for the culture.

What “Made in the USA” Really Means

According to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), companies can only label their products Made in the USA if “all or virtually all” of the product is made domestically. That includes:

  • U.S.-sourced materials
  • U.S.-based labor and assembly
  • Only minimal or negligible foreign content

At Phyzics, our boards are made with U.S. maple, pressed and finished in American facilities, and printed locally. We follow this standard with pride.

Why American-Made Skateboards Matter

We’re not here to make exaggerated promises—we’re here to build reliable skateboards with transparency. Here’s what choosing a Made in the USA skateboard really means for you.

1. Consistent Quality from Trusted Sources

American manufacturing comes with tighter quality control and oversight. By producing our decks locally, we’re able to work more closely with suppliers, ensure quality materials (like North American maple), and maintain hands-on involvement in the production process.

2. Supporting Local Jobs and the U.S. Economy

Buying from small, U.S.-based businesses like Phyzics has a real economic impact. According to the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA):

  • Small businesses create two out of every three new jobs in the U.S. economy.
  • They employ nearly half (about 46%) of the private workforce.

Research from the American Independent Business Alliance (AMIBA) also shows that for every dollar spent at a small business, 67 cents stays in the local community.

3. Smaller Environmental Footprint

Producing skateboards domestically reduces the emissions and waste that come with overseas shipping and long-haul logistics. By using local materials and shorter supply chains, we minimize our environmental impact—and help protect the places we skate.

4. Transparent, Honest Labeling

The FTC holds companies accountable for “Made in USA” claims, and we take that seriously. With Phyzics, what you see is what you get. No misleading labels. No guesswork. Just clear, honest sourcing and manufacturing.

The Value of Choosing Skateboards Made in the USA

  • Ethical sourcing and production
  • Clear, trustworthy labeling
  • Investment in small businesses and the U.S. workforce
  • Direct support for the U.S. skateboarding economy

We don’t make unverified claims about performance. Instead, we focus on craft, control, and consistency—because that’s what really matters when it comes to the gear you ride.
