• Made in USA

  Disgusting. And I told people about this problem months ago in my Strictly USA newsletter. I am totally nauseated knowing that every stitch of clothing (including shoes) worn by the US athletes is made in China. And a lot of you may not know this, but EVERY single item including clothing, coffee mugs, pins, hats, etc. sold by the official US Olympic Store (teamusashop.com) is made in china or another southeast Asian country. Completely and totally disgraceful and totally avoidable. We could make all this stuff here and add thousands of jobs. Imagine what a difference this would make to our country. Why can’t we do this? Oh, and Jada Wong: your comment (I think it’s logical that the uniforms should be made in China) is completely offensive. If you like it so much…move back to China—NOW. Whats that? You can’t make enough? You don’t like living there? Too many people? Boohoo. You owe every American an apology..also NOW!!! You’re disgraceful. I would fire your a** immediately.

  your faux outrage and totally ILLOGICAL rationalzations are very telling Ms. Wong. These uniforms could have been made here CHEAPER and BETTER QUALITY, possibly even with an AMERICAN home country discount. As if Ralph Lauren with his gigantic logo plastered on the uniform really needed to max out his profits making clothing for his countries Olympic team! There will be a huge backlash from this and i can Guarantee you that it will not happen again and may even be corrected before the Games start! The US of A put men on the moon, i’m pretty sure we could make some elementary school copycat outfits for our Olympic team! Shame on you and shame on your unAmerican article!

  @ Made & @ Ptmg23 and your faux Patriotism is just as offensive.  Make sure you keep it close to you the next time you walk into Walmart or Costco, you know, that huge american bastion of savings…where everything inside is made so cheaply in America…not.

  @whitepants, don’t shop at those crapholes. we have a Made in the USA store in my town. don’t try to make yourself feel better by casting stones at someone you don’t know. if you like Chinese junk buy all you like, but our U.S. atheletes should be dressed in American made uniforms. you are on the wrong side of this issue, probably one of maybe one% who see this as okay. listen and you will hear the backlash.

  I  have one thing to said I will not give money to to olympic anymore, did anyone notes that the america flag is on the wrong side of the jacket. It such be on the left side not the the companys logo. everthing you buy from the usa shop are made in even the pins we to the tshirts ect. the uniform are a disgrace.

  Well shame in Lauren, how anti-American can he be to have those garments made in China!   Would it have really cost him THAT much to have them made in NY, don’t they have cut & sew sweatshops there, with Chinese workers???  And of all things, for the AMERICAN TEAM!!!!   I hope Americans take notice next time THEY buy his overpriced, glorified cotton crap MADE IN CHINA for more profit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
