Made in P.R.C
For those of you trying not to purchase items that are "Made in China", a word of warning. I've recently come across some products on store shelves that now read "Made in P.R.C." (People's Republic of China)

Just a heads up.

1. Thanks.
Had to go to a number of stores to find a pair of sandals not made in China last weekend. It took me a year to find boots. It gets harder every year.

3. At the San Diego County Fair, I saw a group that makes their own shoes...
They buy leather and craft them.

It takes time, but you will know what is on your feet.
