There are many items of clothing and gear still in the good ole USA.
One of my faves in Diamond Gusset in Tennessee . Even uses US manufactured fabrics. Jeans, shorts, shirts, belts, and other items.
There is a site called Huckleberrry that only carry's US products. Many are made in CA.
I stopped at the Filson factory in Seattle the last time we were there, 18 months ago. Many people manufacturing items; sewing coats, jackets, pants, shirts, and baggage. Cutting patterns and moving finished items.
I am old and have worn the same sizes since college. Got more clothes than I will ever wear out. But still pick up items every now and then.
Bangladesh makes some nice pants. India nice shirts. But I try to get US.
Bought new chains for my two chainsaws this week. Oregon brand, made in US. At Home Depot!
Supporting US manufacturing jobs starts with all of us.

THINK ABOUT THIS: If 200 million Americans each refuse to buy just $20 of Chinese goods, that's a four billion dollar ($4,000,000,000) trade imbalance resolved in our favor...fast!!
 
Just for the record, a lot of numbers in this article are just wrong.
 
The $4 billion quoted above is almost nothing when it comes to the trade deficit.
 
According to the US government ( ustr.gov/countries-r egions/china-mongoli a-taiwan/peoples-rep ublic-china ) the US-China trade deficit is $386 billion, which means the $4 billion quoted above is only a 1% change in the deficit
 
...almost nothing.
 
The real numbers:
Americans would have to buy $1,181 per man, woman and child less from China every year to balance out the trade deficit. For a family of four, that means buying $394 per month less from China than you are now, household wide.
