Defunct Bootmakers
-
I was wondering if any of you have boots/hoes made by now-defunct bootmakers or if the collective experience here can help identify old brands? I have a pair of boots made by the "American Footwear Co." I bought two pair in the early 1980's when Gore-Tex was a brand new thing. I wore out the old pair, but still have the second pair. I'd also love to see some other folks pictures of footwear from "orphan" or defunct brands.
Here is a photo of the American Footwear Co. boots. You can see the logo in one photo. Anybody have any information about this brand or what happened to them? Maybe they were a private label bootmaker for other brands?
