Call for US to repeal China shoe tariffs
Industry representative body Footwear Distributors & Retailers of America (FDRA) has asked the Biden administration to repeal tariffs on Chinese footwear to give relief to the household budgets of US families.
The US imports 99% of the footwear it consumes, with 70% of these shoes coming from China. During the Trump administration, punitive tariffs were imposed on imports of Chinese footwear as part of a trade war between the two countries.
