Belleville Boot

Where Belleville products are made

Manufacturing

United States — Belleville makes its military and tactical boots at U.S. factories in Belleville, Illinois; DeWitt and Forrest City, Arkansas; and Carthage, Missouri, employing roughly 700 American workers.

The honest note: Belleville’s standard military boots are USA-made and Berry Amendment-compliant. Its “Tactical Research (TR)” sub-brand is made in China — for fully American boots, choose the standard Belleville USA lines, not the TR/imported hybrids.

The story

Belleville Boot has made military footwear since 1904 and is the oldest continuous U.S. supplier of combat boots — worn by American service members in every conflict since World War I. It remains family-owned and runs four U.S. factories.
