Thats about all I shop there for. Although they did have one pair of cargo pants that fit me rather well so I got several pairs of those but I am not a big clothes person anyway.

BTW, wash your hands after handling anything made out of plastic or rubber purchased at Walmart. Chinese plastic typically has lead in the paint, and their rubber is soft & wasn't cured properly, so it's still leaking petrochemical vapors into the air. Someone at work left a Chinese hand truck near my cubicle, and I could smell it even though it was 10 feet away.

I have no problem with where something is made, as long as it's made well. I have an HJC leather jacket that was made in China, and believe it or not but the leather is right up there with Vanson. Way better than Alpinestars. Bought it 9 years ago and I still own it. When it was new I was getting tons of compliments, even from non-riders.

Now, Pakistan on the other hand........Those dudes don't know how to make gear, in my experience.

Gotta go with Homeslice on this one.

Wal-Mart caters to the trashiest of trash.

Police found Jackson and Duncan in the parking lot and questioned them. When asked if she threatened to blow up the Walmart, Jackson said, "Yeah, I did, I did, so there."
"So there."
