Even most of Timberland's boots are no longer made in the USA.

I was in a local shoe store Alec's here in Nashua. IMHO, the best shoe store in the world.
Even Chippewa Boots are now made in China. I have a pair of Chippewa boots I bought new in 1985. They are still in excellent condition.

You’re right. I’d buy American if it was an option but at this point I’m opting for brands that enforce their standards.

Some Keen boots still are.

The most comfortable shoes I have ever worn are made by San Antonio Shoe (SAS) company in Texas. I paid USD175 for them ten years ago, and they still just make me want to walk any time I put them on.
