Sounds like a parrot. Do you personally walk through Walmart and look at labels? I do !
The pj's were White Stag brand.
White Stag was originally in Portland Oregon as a ski wear manufacturer. I remember the White Stag label in clothes when I was a little kid. There areplenty of items in Walmart still made in USA.....like Anchor Hocking glassware and cooking ware.
Also Danskin products that started as a family owned business in N.Y.
n 1956, reflecting the popularity of the sportswear line, Hirsch-Weis changed its name to White Stag.[SUP]
[1][/SUP] In 1959, the company modified a large animated sign on the roof of its downtown Portland building, changing it from advertising a brand of sugar to instead advertise White Stag sportswear.[SUP]
[3][/SUP] For the 1959 Christmas season, a red neon "nose" was added to the stag's snout in imitation of
Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, a tradition that has been repeated annually ever since.[SUP]
[4][/SUP] The
White Stag sign quickly became an identifying landmark for the city, and it was designated a Portland landmark by the city's Historic Landmarks Commission in 1977.[SUP]
[5][/SUP] Its lettering was changed to advertise the
Made in Oregon gift retailer in 1997, and in 2010 the sign was acquired by the city and its lettering changed again, to read "Portland Oregon".[SUP]

In 1966, White Stag was purchased by the Warner Brothers Company, which later became the
Warnaco Group. The company moved its operations out of its downtown Portland building in the 1970s and by 1986, had moved out of Portland completely.[SUP]

The Warnaco years
In 1986, former Warnaco executive
Linda J. Wachner engineered a $550 million
hostile takeover of Warnaco and began streamlining the company.[SUP]
[8][/SUP] White Stag was reorganized with other activewear lines, including
Speedo, into a new company, Authentic Fitness Corporation, which went public in 1992.[SUP]
[9][/SUP] The company grew through the 1990s, but saddled with debt from other acquisitions and mergers, Warnaco filed for
Chapter 11 protection in 2000.[SUP]

Wal-Mart label
After Warnaco emerged from bankruptcy in 2003, it sold the White Stag trademark to
Wal-Mart.[SUP]
[1][/SUP] Wal-Mart now uses the trademark on a line of women's casual clothing, footwear, and basic jewelry.[SUP]
