American made shoes are tough to find these days – it seems like more and more brands are taking their manufacturing facilities overseas. Here is a list of the best companies that are still making shoes in the USA. We found that most of them are boot makers (whether that is hiking, cowboy, or casual styles), but there are also some great American brands in other categories as well. We categorized each of these companies into the types of shoes that they make. Feel free to shoot us a note if you know of any other shoe brands made in the USA that are not on this list!
