Oh, so you were just referring to one state. I couldn’t’ve known that.
Is that all you have to say after I took the effort to educate you?
Thanks....
Where do you know today in USA where hi-end women’s shoes are made? Please inform me.
Up until about 1980, the women’s high-heel shoe industry was centered in Haverhill MA. There were also many companies making work boots, sneakers, leather belts, too. In Manchester NH there were several companies making molded rubber boots as well as work boots. In Dover and Rochester NH there were many companies tanning the leather for the industry.
Derry NH had one of the largest store brand work boot company (Sears) factory. Timberland got its start by making the orange crepe soled work boot for Sears, but got out of it when they produced their own line.
That is the history of shoe making in this area. I am not even going in to the textile industry that has left, or the metal working and steel service industry, or the computer and circuit board industry that has left and gone. There was also Western Electric and Bell Labs, now all gone.
Yea, we now wish we can mow each other’s lawns and wash each other’s clothes.
The real money, industry is in software, banking, medical services, and government now. We do not make much anymore, and we suffer for it.
“Oh, so you were just referring to one state. I couldn’t’ve known that.”
Actually, NH and MA are two distinct states, or more precisely, a State and a Commonwealth.
