American-made hunting products carry weight for many reasons, and it's not just about waving the red, white, and blue. Dialed is immune to these tariffs because we believe in American manufacturing and the American dream.
- Quality and Craftsmanship: The hallmark of American-made is high quality and superior craftsmanship. These products are built with the utmost care, reflecting the dedication and expertise of local craftsmen and women. This means your gear is more likely to endure the rugged demands of the wilderness, from the dense forests of the Northeast to the sprawling landscapes of the West.
- Economic Support: Buying American-made supports local businesses, workers, and the broader economy. Each dollar spent on domestic products circulates within our economy, helping to create and maintain jobs. It's a way to contribute to the prosperity of our fellow Americans and ensure the continued strength of our national industry.
- Innovation and Standards: American companies are at the forefront of innovation, driven by a competitive market that thrives on improvement. This competition leads to better products and technological advancements that can change the way we hunt, scout, and experience the outdoors. Additionally, American manufacturers adhere to strict environmental and safety standards, ensuring products are not only effective but also responsibly made.
- Sustainability and Ethics: With tighter regulations on manufacturing processes, American-made products often have a smaller carbon footprint compared to goods produced abroad, where regulations may be lax. Buying local can reduce the environmental impact associated with long-distance shipping and support ethical labor practices.
- National Pride and Heritage: Using American-made hunting gear ties us to the rich heritage of outdoorsmanship—a tradition of respect for the land, wildlife, and the ethos of fair chase. It's a nod to the generations before us who crafted their livelihoods with the land and an acknowledgment of our role in perpetuating this legacy.
How will tariffs impact companies that manufacture in China?
Tariffs increase the cost of importing goods from China. Companies that manufacture products in China and sell them in the U.S. may face higher costs. To offset the added costs, companies might raise prices and leave you, the customer, to foot the bill. In the realm of the great outdoors, choosing American-made is akin to honoring the essence of our heritage. It acknowledges the sacrifices made to preserve our rights, including the freedom to hunt and fish on the land that many have fought to keep free.
New tariffs on goods manufactured in China will have a significant impact on American companies that rely on Chinese manufacturing. At Dialed, we’re proud to say that will never include us. Remember, as a hunter and an American, you wield the power of choice—let it reflect your respect for quality, tradition, and the profound legacy of the American outdoor lifestyle.
