We design all of our shoes here in Colorado. Our manufacturing is responsibly and ethically done in China.
The factories we use treat and pay their workers exceptionally well. We have Xero team members visiting the factories on a regular basis. Companies much larger than ours use these same factories and have spent millions of dollars on audits to assure themselves and their wholesale partners about the quality and conditions.
While we would love to manufacture in America, it is literally not possible, in the same way it’s not possible to manufacture the device you’re using to read this answer. Performance footwear manufacturing moved to Asia in the 70s and shows no likelihood of moving back. Note that some companies that claim “made in America” are still sourcing their materials from overseas (or the US companies from which they buy their materials are doing so).
