You’ve probably seen the headlines—tariffs going up, trade tensions rising, and prices creeping higher on everything from clothes to camping gear. It’s easy to feel like global economics are out of your hands. But the truth is, what you choose to buy can make a real difference. And right now, buying American-made matters more than ever.
So, What’s Going On With Tariffs?
Tariffs are basically extra taxes on goods coming from other countries. And lately, those taxes have been increasing—especially on products made overseas. That cost doesn’t just hit companies; it ends up in the price tag you see at checkout. Outdoor gear, apparel, and other essentials? They’re all affected. You pay more, and sometimes you wait longer, because supply chains get tangled up in the process.
FORLOH Does Things Differently—On Purpose
At FORLOH, we’ve taken a different path. Every stitch, seam, and zipper in our gear is 100% American-made—from raw materials to final assembly. We didn’t choose this route because it’s easier. We chose it because we believe in doing things the right way, not the fast way. And in times like these, that decision is proving more valuable than ever.
5 REASONS WHY IT MATTERS FOR YOU - here’s what buying American-made gear means when it comes to your wallet, your experience, and your country:
1. More Predictable Pricing
Since we make everything here at home, we’re not hit with surprise costs from overseas tariffs. That means fewer price hikes and more consistency when you shop.
2. Better Quality, Built to Last
American manufacturing still stands for something. Our gear is made to perform and made to last—because cutting corners just isn’t in our DNA.
3. Real Economic Impact
Every time you buy a FORLOH product, you're supporting American workers and communities. You're helping create jobs and keep critical manufacturing skills alive right here in the U.S.
4. Faster Innovation, Fewer Delays
With a fully domestic supply chain, we’re not stuck waiting on shipments from halfway around the world. That lets us adapt quickly and get new gear into your hands faster.
5. The Bottom Line
When you choose American-made, you’re not just making a purchase—you’re making a statement. You’re choosing quality over compromise, reliability over risk, and local strength over global uncertainty. And in this moment, that choice matters.
At FORLOH, we’re proud to stand behind every product we make, because we know exactly where it came from—and so do you.
