What tariffs and trade war threats mean for the U.S. footwear industry

Amna Nawaz:

Well, let’s talk now about the kind of impact that these tariffs, threats, and changes mean for business directly.

In the United States, the vast majority of shoes sold here are imported, which means tariffs are a real issue. I spoke just a short time ago with Matt Priest. He’s the president and CEO of the trade group Footwear Distributors and Retailers of America.

Matt, welcome to the “News Hour.” Thanks for being here.
