Not sure but most of these brands are from the same company (China), you just pay more at J.C.Pennys. Might wrong here but really - there are no American made items left to be bought.

Walmart does not carry Bisou Bisou, Liz Claiborne, Ming by Mango, Levi's nor VANS... which is what i buy at JCP... the clothing at JCP has more detailed stitching... better fit... the stuff at Wal-mart has very little shape to it... a lot of it looks like stuff you might find in a home econ. class, first project... the only good brand of clothing i will admit to at Wal-Mart is Dickies... their OP stuff isn't as good as it once was back in the 80s...

don't get me wrong... i do shop at Wal-Mart... for other stuff...

Well yes, that was a generic statement. There are always a few brands left either American or other countries than China but...

Just saying that the few items that JCP supplies that are either American made or from countries other than China are becoming harder to find. Of course there are those items and yes, they are probably better quality.

Was a generic statement as to the demise of American Companies and their import of foreign items - it then gets down to cost, quality be damn.
