Would you pity a person that buys a Bentley or Ferrari? Are these companies unethical for offering cars at well over $250,000? What about the other less known companies that have models at well over $1,000,000?
I see nothing wrong with a company that sells a product for what a consumer will pay; there is nothing unethical about it. If no one bought the product the company would not sell it. It is you as a consumer that decides what products are for sale and what prices they sell at. What company is not about profit? Isn't profit what keeps them around making new products for the consumer? I know I don't work for free.
If you don't like a company for whatever reason that is your choice. What I do know is that Simms DOES make their waders in the USA. From this thread it seems Simmes MAY start producing SOME lines oversea's. Every pair of waders I've ever worn have been made outside the USA. Then I bought a pair of Simms. The Simms waders have been the most comfortable and have kept me fishing longer in a day compaired to all others. If I could afford it, I would have a pair of the G4 $700 waders some gripe about. I tried a pair on and loved them. If you can't see yourself paying that, fine. Don't turn on people if they want the spend their money on something that makes them happy about getting out and doing something we all enjoy. If you don't like the capitalist nature of this country, I hear Beijing is a nice place to live.
