Hello,
My name is Angelina White and I am a stay-at-home-mom in Ottawa, IL. I love the Bear Feet Shoes hand made in Texas. My husband and I have two children and we love that we can purchase a great pair of shoes for our children that are made in America. Buying American made products is very important to us, as my husband is an IBEW Union Electrician!
The Bear Feet shoes range in size from infant through youth. They are made for both boys and girls. These shoes are made with the highest quality. I have been able to pass them on to close friends and family and their children are now wearing the bear feet shoes!
The shoes are made in:
Brownwood, Texas USA 76801
I hope that you pick Bear Feet Shoes for a Made In America Show! I would love to be able to see how they are made!!!

I would like to add the following information to the Bear Feet Shoe show request.
This information is from the Bear Feet Shoes website:

Bear Feet® Shoes are really shaped like bare feet. That’s how they got their name. We use a non-lasted system to manufacture Bear Feet. We want our leather uppers to mold gently to the shape of children’s feet rather than force their feet to conform to a particular last shape. Our unique low-tech construction allows feet substantial natural movement so that young muscles may fully develop and new bones grow straight. Stiff shoes bind and force feet into contorted shapes. Bear Feet are soft and allow plenty of room for toes to wiggle and grow strong.

The soles of children’s shoes should be very flexible. Some brands of “natural” shoes have hard fiber, cork or thick rigid rubber soles. Children lack sufficient body weight to flex these soles. You can test flexibility by trying to touch the heel of a shoe to its toe.
Bear Feet are truly flexible!

We use pigskin and cotton linings for breath-ability and durability. Pigskin provides optimal ventilation to help keep feet dry and healthy. Bear Feet breathe naturally.

Hi! This is the Bear Feet company doing some research and found this post! We're flattered there are customers out there who would like to see how our factory works. It would be great to be featured on Made in America, since we strive as a company to keep the diminishing manufacturing field alive in America and are firm on keeping our company here in the states. We are pretty small, employing about 10 people and distribute all across the country from California to Maine and even have a men's line that is sold in Japan, as well as a developing women's line under the name Vinca which debuts this fall.
