Footwear Manufacturing
Industry Description
The US footwear manufacturing industry consists of about 230 manufacturers with sales of about $2 billion. The major shoe companies in the US, including NIKE, Skechers USA, and Timberland, are mainly owners of brand names that "source" their shoes from independent manufacturers outside the US. Some US manufacturers, like New Balance, make a percentage of their shoes in the US while other smaller operations manufacture all their shoes in the US.
