This holds some truth, but it's not a rule. For example, Black Diamond started out sourcing, but their plants are better equipped and their workers are better trained than most american factories.

I stopped buying Petzl after reading some articles on outsourcing. Once a company starts out sourcing you tend to loss a lot of quality. Most likely china.
