ALL carhartt (red wing doesn't make them anymore so i hear) irish setter, vasque, and worx are not made in the usa.
a solid chunk of the red wing catalog is made overseas, or "Made in the USA with Imported Materials."
thier U.S. plants here are working (some 24 hrs) making their heritage line (thats huge in japan) and their classic work boots. So i'm thinking redwing is doing alright.
and i take back my statement, if i remember correctly the 988 red wing boot was the only us made motorcycle boot of theirs made here.
with that said - I never cared. they're still top quality and I will always stand behide them. China made - us made
fairjohn - I was just spewing that out for no reason, i've worn the boots you've got before and loved them. that black leather is tough as nails, and Vibram soles are the best around!
