This week, 13-year-old direct-to-consumer brand American Giant announced a partnership with Walmart centered on bringing high-quality, American-made apparel to 1,700 Walmart stores nationwide. Starting on July 4, Walmart shoppers will be able to purchase 100% cotton tees completely sourced and made in the U.S. for $12.98.

At the same time, they beg questions about why brands, retailers and policymakers have not yet rallied to rebuild domestic supply chains.
