About 98 percent the clothes we purchase in the United States is imported from abroad. Go ahead and check your clothes and you'll likely carry an overseas label.

I remember in the 80s and 90s, everyone makes fun of you that you knew how to sew and make clothes.

All of the sudden, they want to learn now! Karma is a bitch.

Wow!!! I would find many shoes for less than $165 in USA.

Grummer · 07-17-2012, 10:01 PM

Getting an order for 3000. Jackets from china makes sense. Getting 300 custom made jackets from china is asine . There was a video reply from american apparel manufactures who said they could. Get it done in 2 weeks. Ralphie as well as too many manufactures have their heads up their ass when looking for a contractor. Makes them a few dollars more at the expense of kicking american workers back into the gutter
