My New Balance Running shoes are made in the USA....but it’s tough finding socks or good running shorts made in the USA.

I do what I can to buy USA products..

I’d by products that said “Made in the USA - by non-union workers”

Not all of the New Balance shoes are made in the USA - check the labels, many are being made elsewhere, especially their sub-lines. Also, some of the labeled USA shoes are just over 70% made in USA...there’s been lawsuits.

I used to play the don’t buy china game. Can’t afford it any more. Now I try to play the “don’t buy period” game.
