Obviously I would prefer to buy from a based shoe merchant instead of one of the companies that hate us and wants us all re-educated.
I heard New Balance was not woke, but looking at the models and messaging on the website, I am now questioning this.
If any of you brave bastards sorting by new have some recommendations, pls let me know.

These are made in USA shoes. I know you asked for based but there ya go. As of right now made in USA trumps based IMO with everything going on with China. Minds can be changed but there's a war with China. Propping our industries is #1.
Nearly got the SOM shoes but went with the Carsons. Great companies and great shoe.
Absolutely no luck finding anything in any stores.
