Please provide the basis of your cost analysis. I’m in no mood for slanted guessing.

It is possible to buy a Made in the USA 100% all cotton shirt, comparable in quality to, say, an imported LL Bean shirt that costs $40 to $50, but it will cost $100 or more. I’ve tried. I invite you to do the same.

It may come as a surprise to some of the tariff pimps on FR, but I buy USA made products when it’s reasonable to do so. But a 100% premium is not reasonable to me. Maybe it is to you.

Free Traitors™ always bring up the apparel industry which IS absolutely labor intensive and project that onto manufacturing in general which is not labor intensive at all.

It is one of their favorite tricks.
