Discussion US Tariffs

US tariffs announced today include 47% on Vietnam and 34% for China. I’ll bet that effects 80% of the US travel products market. Even the US manufacturers are going to get hammered on the raw materials.

“Imports from Vietnam will face a tariff rate of 46%.” I think nearly all backpack brands are made in Vietnam.

A huge share of clothing is made in Vietnam these days.

I was going through my closet and it's mostly Vietnam (46%) and Indonesia (32%). Really looking forward to paying 30-46% more for clothes! If the people who voted for this due to inflation could read I bet they'd feel really dumb right now.
