Prison Blues
Prison Blues -- Made on the Inside to be worn on the Outside
Prison Blues was formed by the State of Oregon in 1989 as a way to create jobs for the Oregon Correctional Institution.
The factory, located at the Eastern Oregon Correctional Institution in Pendleton, Oregon, is 47,000 square feet and produces many garments including shirts, jeans and hats. Each inmate must pass a detailed hiring process. They are then trained by managers with private industry experience.
By purchasing a Prison Blues garment, you get a quality product made by inmates who take pride in their work. You are also supporting a program that teaches inmates valuable working skills that they need to become contributing members of society.

Rigid Olive Canvas
The canvas used in the Prison Blues garments is woven at Mount Vernon Mills from 100% US grown cotton. Mount Vernon Mills, located in Trion Georgia, was established in 1847 and is now the largest denim manufacturing facility in the US.
The Rigid Olive Canvas is 100% US cotton canvas in a 10 ounce weight. Canvas is a tightly woven fabric, stronger than denim, with two yarns in the warp and one in the weft. Although a tighter weave than the 14.75 ounce Rigid Denim, the Rigid Olive Canvas is a lighter weight resulting in a more flexible fabric and very comfortable garments.
