PLAGER, Circuit Judge,
concurring.
I concur in the decision and in the opinion of the court except for the last sentence in the body of the opinion, pertaining to the issue of proving fungibility of the U.S.made and Hong Kong-made jeans. The opinion states that “[w]hy Guess exports only U.S.-made jeans is not controlling; whether some foreign customers demand them because of their labels is.” It is my view that neither Guess’s corporate reasoning nor “some” foreign customers’ preference controls. Rather, the ultimate decision should be based on a weighing of all *859the relevant factors in the case, including the two mentioned above, to decide whether fungibility exists.
