3 G Capital purchased footwear giant Skechers for $9.5 billion in a deal that will take it private.

The deal comes at a time when uncertainties about international sales and imports are increasing.

Skechers, in particular, could feel the crunch of those tariffs since its manufacturing operations are overseas in places like China and India .
