Made in USA Tea Kettle and Tennis Shoes
This weeks’ requests included where to find tennis shoes and Tea kettles made in the USA. Links are included.
So far, I’m only aware of one company making tennis shoes. Those are the New Balance brand. Becareful though, many of those on the store shelves are not the Made in USA model. For the domestic ones use this link New Balance. I believe they are made in Florida
The Tea Kettle was a tough one. On 4/19/08 I wrote “I have confirmed one tea kettle, the whistling kind for the stove. The Brand is Pfaltzgraff.” This information was incorrect. In fact none of the pfaltzgraff brands are made in the US.
So is there really a tea kettle made in US? The closest contender is Medelco Brand. The parts are German, assembly occurs in the US.
Thanks for asking! Keep the requests coming!

Nothing seems to be created in the “right” countries anymore. All the big (but not also medium and even small) companies find more profitable producing everything in the east of the world. And tennis shoes are no exceptions…. Even the fakes problem is nearly getting meanless, I think. Most of the times fake items are made in the same factories by the same workers and with the same materials. What’s the difference? This way you lose the enjoyment of having something special when you buy expensive top brand tennis shoes (or whatever else). I’m not sure Gucci tennis shoes are manufactured in Italy, for example. Most probably not, and I couldn’t find this information anywhere…..
