I found the following video made by Justin Brands, the owner of Chippewa Boots. The video gives a tour of a facility where Chippewa boots are made and demonstrates the the combination of both human attention to detail along with machine processes to manufacture mass-market boots in the United States.
I have many pairs of Chippewa boots and have found them to be very well-made and comfortable.
Life is short: know your boots!
I notice the people constructing the boots are not 12 years old, maybe that is why my recently purchased Fryes are falling apart but my decade old ones are still in great working order
