Men's pants made in Africa tend to be much too big in the crotch. Men's pants made in New York have the opposite problem.

Yep.
I actualy look at TAGS to see where they were made. I have found that clothing from KLorea, and Vitnam and Thailand actuallya re pretty well made. I buy NOTHING with China on it. Taiwan is not bad.

It's all about fit, finish, comfort. I do nt really care so much as who it was actually sewn by as I do about the FIT and quality.

IF we were to make everything here in the US with wages as they are and the countles additional taxes that get added to the employer and all the benefit costs, you would not be able to afford them.. Not in our economy and cost of living here.

So I would not complain too loudly about keeping costs down in the making of something. It means that YOUR money will actually go farther for other things....


Think about this for just a minute.

HOW MANY shirts, sweatshirts, tee shirts, button up shirts, do you own? Pants, whether sweats, workout, jeans, jogging, dress, whatever, do you have?

In most cases the answer is WAY TOO MANY. IN a lot of other countries the answer is a FEW.
