Donald Trump’s tariffs have upped the cost of imported goods around the globe — from iPhones to automobiles — and now, they might even be coming for cult-classic sneaker brand Adidas. The footwear company, which primarily manufactures its kicks in countries like China, Indonesia, and Vietnam, announced in its first quarter earnings report this year that if the currently-paused tariffs resume, the prices of its shoes in the U.S. market could increase.
While no concrete decisions have been made yet, we suggest grabbing a pair of these celeb-loved sneakers before they break the bank. And right now, new Boxing Week and end-of-year sales have the Adidas Sambas marked down by as much as 50% off online on Adidas.com and Nordstrom Rack.
