Healthknit

In the 1940s, during World War II, it signed numerous contracts with the U.S. military to produce hundreds of thousands of thermal underwear and winter trousers (winter tights).

In the 1950s, facing competition from imported products, many factories in Knoxville were forced to close, and the unemployment rate rose.
However, despite this, Health Knit continued to grow and became one of the most popular brands in the United States.
Health Knit products are sold throughout the United States and around the world, but all products are manufactured in their own factory in Knoxville.
