if you think hd shirts are expensive, go price one of the 'affliction' t shirts. those puppies will run you over $60.00 and the t shirt is threadbare from the start. at least hd shirts last.
i checked my hd shirts in my closet. they are made all over, us, mexico, nicaragua, but none from china..... ymmv
Ya and they are not maid in the us any more what the F**ks up with that
some of them are made in the US still, gotta look at the tag. now that i know it (before id just walk in buy what i liked), i check the tag first. sending my own personal message to hd. only buy it if the tag says made in the USA.
Dealers charge these crazy prices for the T-shirts because we are willing to pay that for them. In the 80's and 90's I had no problem paying $12 or $15 for a t-shirt when ever I hit a new dealership. Now that they are running $25 to $30, I maybe buy one a year. Its just not worth the money to me anymore. Besides I have several drawers full of t-shirts left over from years ago.
Bought a shirt in Bavaria, Germany last week and it was $39. Their sales tax is 19% but is included in the cost. Now my Ultra sells for $13K more over there.
