Company Description

Once a unit of Justin Industries, Justin Brands two-stepped away, returning to its cowboy roots. The firm is known as a maker of western boots under the Justin Boots, Nocona Boots, Chippewa Boots, and Justin Original Workboots brands, but the company also makes and markets work, safety, and sports footwear. Its western boots come in a variety of exotic leathers, including lizard and ostrich. Justin Brands sells its footwear through department stores, shoe chains, specialty stores (AcademyCavenders Boot City), catalogs, and online (Zappos.com). It also caters to cowboys and fillies who want to learn more about the West through its Northland Publishing unit.

    Overview

    The US footwear manufacturing industry consists of about 250 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 large US producers, like New Balance, make a substantial share of their shoes in the US; some smaller operations manufacture all their shoes in the US.
