We Like Making

Survivor has been STL MADE since 1968. We opened one of our first shops in St. Louis in the 70's. There were a few hit and miss locations interrupted by some hippie style cross country travelling. We settled permanently in St. Louis in 1985.
Our skills have grown over the years.
We are:
Designers
Pattern Makers
Troubleshooters
Material Sourcing Experts
Sewing Machine Repair-ers (LOL)
Tools Experts
Knife Sharpeners
Photographers
Writers
Bookkeepers
Planners
Leaders
Web Developers (online since 1995!)
and so much more...
This is what it takes. This is what you become when you spend your life's working "doing it yourself" and learning along the way.
"Semper in meliora sunt"
This is how we do it!
