Default "Made in USA" riding boots ... where to find?

Is it still possible to get a good pair of riding boots (w/Vibram sole) still made here in the USA? or the next best thing?

I have the made in USA Double-H harness boot and they have the Sierra 150 Orange Plaug outsole. Very comfortable and the soles have a great grip on pavement.

Default Riding Boots

I also ride with the Red Wing boots. I have a pair of black 6" 607s that took no breaking in at all. They come in widths out to "H" which is really wide. Also because they are not a molded sole, they can be resoled.

Wesco boots. Made in Oregon. Best boots and a custom fit available. The last pair you will ever buy.
