ABOUT US
American Shadeworks exists to put high-quality shade sails in the hands of DIY homeowners and landscapers at the click of a button. These aren't mass-produced in a sweatshop overseas: all of our sails are hand-cut and sewn here in the States. We use a hybrid approach that mixes precision CAD measurements with hand-tooled cutting.
WHO WE ARE
American Shadeworks is a division of Custom Shade Sails, a US shade sail maker founded in St. Louis in 2005. In 2021 the business moved to Lamar, Missouri, and since 2022 every sail has been cut and sewn in our 6,500 sq ft shop.
Custom Shade Sails builds made-to-measure sails for homeowners, landscapers and installers across the country. American Shadeworks takes that same fabric, thread, hardware and shop team and offers it in ready-to-ship standard sizes, priced and sold online, so you can order a quality sail without waiting on a quote.
