Tariff Turmoil
THE BIGGEST HEADACHE OUTDOOR BRANDS
face when trying to figure out how to come
to terms with the reality of the "Tariff War"
between China and the United States is
that it's impossible to know what the Trump
Administration will do next. Things seesaw
back and forth so fast that it's hard to know
what tariffs and policies will become reality.
Take last year's threat that on October 1, tariffs on certain goods with a certificate of origin
from China would jump to an astronomical 30%. That date then moved to October
15. Then on October 12, the President announced the increase would be halted. One
thing is certain: Outdoor manufacturers who
need to write orders sometimes a year out

/ Winter 2020
have to prepare for the worst. And everyone
down the line, from reps to retailers to consumers, will pay the price-everyone except
maybe China.
It's important to note when discussing
global supply chains and distribution that
the war only affects goods made in China and
imported into the U.S. Other manufacturing hubs such as Vietnam or Eastern Europe
remain unchanged, as do imports to Canada,
Mexico, and other nations that rely on
Chinese-made goods-but that's a big chunk
of the industry.
The Trump Administration has broken
goods imported from China into four lists so
far (with the fourth list broken up into two
groups) and began raising duties on them
in phases. On May 10, 2019, a tariff increase
went into effect on $200 billion in Chinese
imports on "List 3," raising the tariffs from
10% to 25 %. That list includes items ranging from skis to backpacks. On May 13, the
administration released the new proposed
"List 4" of 25% tariffs on over $300 billion of Chinese-manufactured goods that
include performance outerwear, gloves,
mittens, sweaters, safety headgear, footwear, scarves/shawls, skis and bindings, ski
boots, snowshoes, ice skates, toboggans, and
sleds. Among the 6,000 products on the list,
snow-sports-specific products also include
ski gloves, knit hats , and sports bags. List 4a

The impeachment proceedings may have distracted mainstream media outlets from daily reporting
on the Tariff War, but that doesn't mean the potentially devastating policies have gone away.
