re: Will you try to buy less made in China

I always have.

A good majority of the time you can't do anything about it. What % of our electronics are made there? Car parts? You can't avoid it.

For you boys that like your yeti coolers? Do some research on it. They don't make em all here. A lot of gray area with yeti..all of their soft coolers, steins, accessories etc are 100% made in China.

Their hard coolers...some of them are ASSEMBLED in the USA. But the parts are coming from China im pretty sure. One silver lining...if you want a hard cooler that is 100% assembled in the USA you can call and request it and they will make sure you are taken care of.

Past couple of years I've gotten into Kayak/kayak fishing long story short Jackson, Tennessee makes Jackson kayaks (I bought one). They also manufacture and assemble Orion coolers...100% made in USA and work as good or better than YETI. A hair more expensive...but I am going to buy one because I like it and more importantly made here on our soil.

I hope these companies that source all of their shite out to China take notice. Your avg every day American doesn't like that crap.
