Kids’ Sandals Made in the USA – Durable, Comfortable, and Supportive!

March 18, 2022 Shoes Made in the USA Juan Pablo Valenzuela 0 - Comments

Have you been looking for a pair of sandals that are made in the United States? Do you prefer to provide your children with high quality shoes that are comfortable, durable, and provide the correct amount of support? Fitting your child in a pair of high quality shoes will end up saving you money in the long run. Your children’s shoes won’t end up falling apart as fast and you might help prevent foot issues down the road. I have put together a list of the best kids’ sandals made in the USA based on my 10 years of shoe fitting experience.

Did you know that the United States used to be the number one leading manufacturer of footwear, but now most shoe companies are manufacturing their children’s shoes overseas? The only reason for this is corporate profits. The good news is that there are still a few shoe companies that still manufacture shoes in the USA, and I will help you find them.

We carry high quality children’s shoes, and over the years I became familiar with which shoe brands and which shoe styles are better than others. You won’t believe what a difference the correct types of shoes can make in your child’s life, especially if your child is dealing with a “complicated” foot shape or foot condition.

What Shoe Companies Manufacture Kids’ Sandals Made in the USA?

There are 3 shoe brands that still manufacture their children’s shoes in the USA and you will be able to find seasonal shoes such as sandals.

Kepner Scott

This shoe company is proud to be part of the “Made in America” community, and to provide healthy shoes for children’s feet.

Softstar Shoes

Every single shoe made by this shoe company is handmade in their Oregon workshop with soft leather and flexible zero-drop soles. They have a few sandal choices that are an excellent choice for the summer.

Zimmerman Shoes

Each pair of Zimmerman shoes is carefully crafted at their historic family owned shoe factory in Pennsylvania.

Are Any Other Shoe Brands that Manufacture Kids’ Shoes in the USA?

I have found other shoe companies such as Merrell, Keen, and Chaco that are trying to bring footwear manufacturing back to the USA. These shoe companies manufacture shoes made both in the United States and Asian countries.

Please note that the sandals below are made both in the United States and in Asian countries, but I can’t guarantee that their shoes will be labeled as “Made in USA”. However, even if the shoe is not American made, these shoe companies have their own factories in Asian countries, which means that the quality of the shoe is still excellent. These shoe companies also work closely with their suppliers to ensure that their products are made to last.
