I'll start with the shout-out to the USA made things I can recall off the top of my head. My Chippewa boots, my James Perse tops, and my Babooshka tunic. I'm sure there are a few more, but that's all I can think of right now.
I have a fair number of Italian made shoes and clothes. Europe is fairly well represented in my wardrobe, because Yoox is one of my go-to sites for clothes. I also have stuff from far-flung corners of the globe: I have a wrap from Africa, a pair of shoes from Israel, a tunic from Bulgaria, and a ruana from Colombia. I have jewelry from Chickasaw Tribal artisans, and even though they're in Oklahoma--they are a sovereign nation.
I also have more than a few garments and shoes made in the usual suspect locations (China, Bangladesh, India, etc), as I have many mass retail brands in my closet. I am working towards being more mindful/intentional, and am beginning to try and order from smaller makers rather than companies that exploit human beings for profit. I've also started paying attention to the fiber content. My thing is trying to be mindful/ethical/etcetera while still wearing things that fit my aesthetic; sometimes that means buying a garment that wasn't made in USA. It's definitely got me buying less overall,
All of that said, I think global trade is about to get very weird. Tariffs on imported goods are going to cause the price of goods to rise, but it probably isn't going to be enough to make companies bring garment jobs back onshore. Even if it were enough to make companies want to reshore garment jobs, we don't have the people with those skills like we used to have. Also? Those tariffs imposed on imported goods are probably going to cause other countries to impose tariffs on American made goods, which isn't going to do American companies any favors. It's all about to get very weird. It's all weird enough and complicated enough that I think it's giving me a headache LOL
