The cowboy boot is a multifunctional Americanfootwearicon. It can be worn for work on the ranch, as an everyday shoe, and on special occasions. The cowboy boot as we know it today was created by American bootmakers in the 1800s. When doing research for this list, I was surprised to find there are many bootmakers that still offer cowboyboots made in the USA.

      There is a bad link in “walk-over shoes since 1758. It goes to a mass retail shoe distributor

      The correct link is

      Check out W.C. Russell Moccasin in Berlin, Wisconsin. They make an amazing array of boots and when I say Made In America I mean they literally cut leather and needle and thread it together right there in their shop. They are huge down here in Georgia and my families boot store has had huge success with them for 15-20 years now. Styles like the Zephyr and the Knock A Bout Boot are on point. You can also pick your skins I believe ranging from cow to elephant. Super nice people as well

      I sure am glad to find this web site for American made shoes. It is nice to read comments from Americans who are proud of the products made here and want to support our homeland. I dont care if something if a product is twice the price as long as it it American made. Bill a Vietnam veteran

      You failed to include Johnston/Murphy’s “custom select” line. It is not only made here in the US but can be “custom sized” to fit each foot exactly!
      The company is worthy of mentioning not simply because of the above-mentioned but also their long standing reputation for customer service. I know this for a fact as my wife is a salesperson for them. :):)

      Eastland shoes….have a VERY limited amount of shoes that are actually Made in Maine. 90% of their shoes are cheaply made overseas. I also believe that Rancourt makes their Made in Maine line FYI. RANCOURT is amazing to deal with!

      Just a note. I purchased a pair of Allen Edmonds shoes, primarily because they were made in the USA. I was greatly disappointed to find that they use imported leather to make the shoes. I returned them for that reason.

        A semi ridiculous reason to return a shoe. Some of the leathers AE uses are actually from Chicago based Horween leather. Yes the leather is from overseas but it’s process and tanned here in the US. It’s about US jobs, not where the cow was eating it’s grass in!

      Dear Jill,

      I need your advice. I am looking for a pair of dress boots in black, the slip on style. I have been wearing the Australian made R.M. Williams boots; unfortunately, my dress pair did not hold up. Are there any USA made boots of this type? I have been to a number of stores (including Nordstrom‘s) but the boots are pretty much all from China or India.

      Thanks for any assistance, Kevin

      My hubs is a HUGE Allen Edmonds fan, as am I, but be careful as more and more of their shoes are now being imported. The classic styles remain built in the USA, but their more casual shoes are now imported.
