I posted about how I was not real happy with my last pair of Redwing work shoes. Actually the last TWO pairs have not been anything special. So I wanted to try some other brands out.
One of the main things I wanted was a US made shoe. Not a China made shoe. Then sewed sole and side seams.
I looked at many different brands. I found this web site called Country Outfitter. They have many kinds of shoes/boots. They also have the best price I have found on the style/brand of jeans I wear for everyday( $21 verses $29-32 most other places) So I was ordering jeans and shirts from them anyway. This higher sale got me into free shipping plus some hefty discounts on additional purchases.
I found Chippewa Shoes/boots. They are from WI. Their web site goes on and on about how they are a US company and how great their shoes/boots are. Plus I really liked the look of a couple of styles of work boots they have. So I picked a pair out and added them to my order.
They came today. The jeans and Tee shirts are exactly what I usually wear. The work shoes look good and fit well. So what is the trouble then??? The darn things are made in CHINA!!!!!
Nothing on the outside of the box or in the web site tells you this. It is printed inside the tongue. Then to make it even better. IF I return the work shoes I have to pay the freight, PLUS a restocking fee. When you add that up I would lose about %40-50 percent of the purchase price. I am not willing to lose that much. I will darn sure not buy anything else from either company!!!!

The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
