Tonight on The Shepard Ambellas Show, we dive deep into the impact of U.S. tariffs on manufacturing and consumer prices. With President Trump’s recent 46% tariff on imports from Vietnam—a key production hub for brands like Nike—shepherd Ambellas explores how this policy, aimed at bringing factories back to the U.S., could drastically raise the cost of your favorite sneakers.
We break down the numbers: Vietnam’s labor rates hover around $3-5 per hour, while U.S. labor rates can hit $20-30 per hour. This gap, combined with tariffs, could push the average price of Nikes to $400 a pair, a steep jump from their current range. Shepard questions whether these tariffs will truly incentivize domestic production or simply burden consumers with higher costs, especially as companies like Nike have relied on Southeast Asia to keep prices competitive.
Join us as we analyze the ripple effects on the sportswear industry, the feasibility of relocating factories, and what this means for American workers and shoppers. Will tariffs revive U.S. manufacturing, or are we just trading one set of problems for another? Tune in for a critical look at the intersection of trade policy, labor economics, and consumer impact.
