Not sure about the Made in North Korea label. Isn't that like a Made in Cuba or Iran etc. I didn't think we had free trade agreements with those sort of countries. Not saying they don't make stuff just that were not supposed to be importing it.

The last time I was at a dealer the guy with me was looking specifically for shirts made in the USA. He found a few and they cost the same as the others. So it can obviously be done, and they might even sell more of them if they emphasized it.

You people are all so cynical about the companies only wanting to make a profit and not caring about the American economy or American employment. These people are only out to provide us with inexpensive, well made foreign products for your benefit and enjoyment.
These people are the job creators. We need to praise them for being entrepreneurs and lower their taxes, or at least that's the conservative view I was taught.

I just had to check my one and only HD shirt to make sure it wasn't from NK. Says made in Hondurus. Well, at least it's made in South America

Last time I checked, Honduras was in CENTRAL America.

I haven't noticed any shirts that said made in the USA, but I'll be checking it out ASAP!
