Most companies have used strategies to mitigate the tariffs, such as changing the materials used or timing shipments to arrive earlier to evade the Sept. 1 tariffs.

Craig Johnson, founder of retail research firm Customer Growth Partners, said most companies have utilized a number of tools to lessen the number of products that will be impacted by the Sept. 1 tariffs.

Companies have also been timing shipments to arrive earlier to evade the Sept. 1 deadline, according to Johnson. "Normally, holiday goods don't come until September or October," he said. "But companies started planning for that a year ago. People have been ordering early and have some product landed in August now."

Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t the tariffs are put on the cost of productions the item rather than the retail price of an item?

Stop supporting an evil nation! Get the hell out of China!

The money will come from the pockets of the US consumer.

More Fake news.

Yup my trump shirt, tie and pants all made in China today they cost more and tomorrow they will cost even more🤡👺

Many cloths by ZARA made in Bangladesh, Portugal, Turkey, Vietnam, etc. Great quality of stitches. But I believe synthetic fabric generally source from China.

China is devaluing its currency. They may end up being cheaper.

Ouch
