    Just a thought.
    Also in the shoe mix:
    Adbuster's "Blackspot" fair-trade shoes. Vegan, etc. Boots (designed by Fluevog) and sneakers: https://www.adbusters.org/campaigns/blackspot

    ETA: nowhere on the Frye website can I find any info about where their boots and shoes are made. Just a listing of the countries where they have employees (China, Mexico, US, etc.) If someone finds it, can you give me The Great Computer Illiterate Knot, a link?

    ETA #2: Red Wing boots and shoes are made in Red Wing, Minnesota; but there's no info about where their off-shoot brands are made. http://www.redwingshoes.com/

    ETA #3: Just looked through my shoes to see where they are made. (I'm home with a cold, and coughing too much to sleep, so I'm counting shoes... ooh, I know how to have fun!) 3 pair made in Portugal, 1 pair made in Thailand, 3 pair made in USA, 5 pair made in China, 1 pair made in Germany, 1 pair made in Italy.
