A message from Vagabond:
During these economic and geopolitical uncertainties, we, like so many businesses are faced with tariffs, sourcing, and supply chain hardships.
We are forced to temporarily stop sales to pivot our sourcing and manufacturing without making changes to your favorite products.
Our customers have shown us great loyalty and we are working to bring you all of the products you love, at prices you can afford.
We have chosen to address with full transparency. If price increases are inevitable, we will itemize the incurred tariffs for you to see.
We feel it is important that every person understands, contrary to what the administration says, tariffs are NOT a tax on a foreign country, but are paid by the small American business owner directly to the U.S. government… and in most cases, that cost must be passed to the consumer. We are working to mitigate that. We are all in this together.
Thank you for your continued support,
P. Caplan

-Small businesses in the U.S. are facing devastating and irreversible impacts during this tumultuous time.
-Trump’s tariffs disproportionately impact small businesses with tight margins and no ability to absorb the additional costs that larger corporate sellers can, making most small businesses unsustainable.
-As of now, over 200,000 small businesses are at imminent risk, potentially affecting 2.5–3 million jobs, and that number is growing.
-The U.S. has about 33 million small businesses, the majority relying on imports of goods that are not, and will not be manufactured in U.S. in the foreseeable future.
-Small businesses employ nearly half the U.S. workforce, and widespread closures will have significant economic impact.
