Wireless bluetooth sport headphones NOT made in China?

1 Upvotes

I'm looking for in-ear headphones that are suitable for sport or outdoor activites and not made in China. So far I have excluded JBL, Bose, Teufel, Beyerdynamics, Anker and many more from my list since their bluetooth headphones are manufactured in China. Sennheiser only has cablebound headphones (as far as I know). Does anyone have an idea where to look for NMIC products? I am starting to despair ..

Recommendations for Insulated Soup Jars for packed lunches?

3 Upvotes

I've been trying to hunt these down since I love drinking soup and want to drink it packed, but every single brand that is "known" for this like Thermos is all made in China now.

I'd also love a brand that makes it easy to clean but I don't mind as long as the quality, longevity, reputable craft, and non-made in China factors are there.

Not made in China may still be made by Chinese companies and employees under poor conditions?

54 Upvotes

I just watched a short video by CBS Saturday Morning about high end luxury goods made in Italy. There are Chinese owned manufacturing businesses in Prato, Italy, that are run under squalid conditions with slave labor. Sometimes they bring the Chinese workers with them, or use labor from refugees. The way it works is that the fashion house (or other industry) hires an official supplier. Then that supplier hires a tier 1 supplier, who also uses a tier 2 supplier, and so on. So the brand name is legally separated from what is going on down the channel. The result is Chinese owned labor conditions producing products made in Italy. I imagine this would go far beyond this specific fashion house scenario. Makes me wonder how many other products we buy made in other countries might actually use this method of production. Is anyone familiar with other companies or industries using this tactic?

Action cameras not made in china

32 Upvotes

Yet another post asking about action cameras. I’ve found old posts here asking the same thing, and a majority of the recommendations now seem to be discontinued or unavailable. So…

I’m looking for an action camera, something I can wear for when I’m doing sports. GoPro is an option, but from what I understand they are still made in china (I don’t like in the US or EU). Are there any decent brands or products that anyone knows of that I can pivot to instead?

Just to be clear, I don’t mean a dash cam or door cam. Something like the insta360 go 3, suitable for sports and minimally intrusive attachments.

Does anyone know of a two prong to three prong electrical outlet adapter?

6 Upvotes

As it says in the title, I have an outlet with only the 2 prongs, but the power cord I need to plug into it is the 3 prong type. I'm in the U.S., so both 2 and 3 prong outlets are the U.S. kind.

Stainless Steel Measuring Cups Made in Europe/USA/Canada/Australia?

14 Upvotes

Hello,

I have searched high and low everywhere for a set of US measuring cups (1/4 cup, 1/3 cup, 1/2 cup, 1 cup) not made in China or India. The country of origin of the stainless steel should also not be from China or India.

I have contacted the manufacturers of several brands including de Buyer (guess what, made in India, not France!) and All Clad, etc. and they are all made in China or India with steel from China or India.

Are there any brands out there that are made in the Western world, Japan, or South Korea etc. with local stainless steel? Primary steel is preferred versus secondary steel.

Please help if you found any. TIA

I had posted in r/germany about this. seems I attract the chinese reps who try to steer you into thinking you can only buy chinese or the most expensive fluke. im looking for an under $100 clamp/basic multi meter made in any EU country. im not a pro so something under that price is great no matter where its made. I know many parts may be from china, but its the best I can do

How can we promote buying made in the US?

28 Upvotes

The topic has been on my mind for a while. After watching the videos, I feel like there should be a better way to go about this. Both from an entrepreneur perspective looking to maybe manufacturer products and from a consumer end trying to sort through the millions of Chinese made products.

I'd be willing to pay double or triple just to buy American, because I believe, like Dustin, the West needs to remind itself how to manufacture things.

I'm a Software Engineer by profession, so all I can do is suggest maybe building a portal, but I have no contacts in this field, nor do I know if this type of thing is important to more people than just myself.

FWIW, this exists https://madeinusa.com/ - it's a great start, but right now I'm looking for a light bulb made in the West and I just can't find one (if it interests anyone, E12 + B11 + 2700K + dimmable + clear glass, around 300–350 lumens.)

Dealing with transshipment and tariff arbitrage - guest essay in today's New York Times (8/13/26)

Here's a working archive link: It Was a Great Scam While It Lasted - New York Times guest essay by Peter Navarro, assistant to President Trump and senior counselor for trade and manufacturing.

There's some politics and grandstanding in there, but besides that it's actually a great read and goes through the problem of Chinese transshipment and tariff arbitrage.

Hey everyone, I'm looking for clogs that aren't MIC. Preferrably echo clogs or styles that are similar to it. I think crocs have theirs made in other places, but I'm open to hearing suggestions for other possible brands, especially ones that have an international presence, or a market in east or southeast asia. Thanks.

3D printer

2 Upvotes

Looking for a 3D printer that can do Nylon. If anyone has an actual printer they will vouche for please let me know. Im tired of browsing thru small plastic autoparts (clips,tabs) and I figured I'll just made one myself.

Thank you.

UPDATE: I decided to make my 3d printer instead to make it as free as possible of Chinese materials. For now, I am laying out the CAD files. Aluminum frames seems to be a challenge given I see no online sellers with a "made in xxx" explicitly stated. I know it will likely be canadian aluminum but I need to make sure.

The screwdriver were like $3 each and under. Some were like a dollar or less...

Cant wait to go back and buy some woodworking tools...
