Our Boot Factory is Having MAJOR Problems

This week on Uncut, the boot factory nearly had to halt production of the new Moc Toe due to domestic supply chain issues. After spending several months designing, building, and launching these boots, one critical component nearly brought operations to a standstill. The team now faces the challenge of figuring out how to resolve the issue-or if it's even possible to do so.

Manufacturing environments are tough. I am an IT Manager/Director in a medium-sized manufacturing company in the US and the struggle is real when it comes to sourcing parts and suppliers. Keep up the good work and God bless!

[@NDB469]

I like that you guys are honest, and showing some insight into some of your manufacturing processes/hangups. Really great, Honest, USA made oriented company. I appreciate you guys.

[@BradleyMakesThings]

I’m a COO at a small/medium manufacturer in the US and this is definitely realistic! Been through similar struggles over the years. Just part of the process. Just gotta get scrappy and roll with it the best you can like y’all are. Keep fighting the good fight!

[@DominicMartinez-p6u]

Good thing I bought them yesterday and they’ve already shipped out today haha

[@danedralin8064]

Vote this Nov to bring manufacturing back to the USA

[@paparomesoutdoors711]

That’s awesome!!! Keep forging ahead fellas!!! Can you use a cork alternate material for that layer?

[@NDB469]

Got a pair of your Mocs in whisky! Love them! Bought them the day they came out Labor Day 2024!

[@ryanmeader1111]

I got my denim jacket today. Looks and feels great!!

[@OmegaTou]

"If it were easy, everybody would be doing it." That is so true. Keep crushing it, Origin! 🎉

[@michaelfeduccia7989]

I hope your supplier gets their equipment fixed soon. I just ordered mine in Whiskey! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@suh84sc]

Thanks Origin, glad i was able to get my boots sooner. You guys rock and keep up the good work!

[@Warrior1Spartan]

If it were my call, I would say do both of those options: get the bulk material to split yourself as your waiting for your shipment to come in while also seeking out other manufacturers that can source it for you. Good on you for bringing jobs back to the US.

[@Tru3blu36]

Disruption always follows intention. Keep hammering team! 👊🏻

[@ike780]

Anytime you see in the factory and hear from the workers, you know it's good. When do you see sweatshops giving airtime to their slaves?

[@martybanuelosjr]

If it was any company to over come these issues, it would be you guys! By any means necessary!

[@wilsonjanae]

Please consider adding sizes 7/7.5 again. I just got a pair of 7.5 bison boots that were discontinued. My surprise to have seen they were available.

[@LukeC908]

Major problems? GOOD.

[@Trezker]

Every problem is an opportunity.

[@rustyshackleford3099]

I got mine and they are awesome. 🎉

[@snowg4953]

I live in Massachusetts. Maine is an amazing state that better stay free. I am looking to move north and looking for work. I am available. Big fan of your jeans. I have never bought a shoe or boot not made in USA besides original sorel boots.

[@justadudefrom97]

These are great but we need some leather origin flip flops!

[@AbandonedMaine]

Where are they sold in Maine?

[@TheManFromGallifrey]

Make it a leather mid sole! Get Rose Anvil involved in the design process!

[@snowg4953]

My opinion USA manufacturers need to obide by Henry Ford. All production aspects are in house or in the family.

[@omwtfym12]

Yall out here talking about boots and im like whats the maintainance guy doing lol

[@Dennis_Origin]

RIGHT!! Dillon is always deep into something. Sometimes I don't want to know lol. Dillon Keeps this place Running!

[@TyEMW1014]

Something my first television tower boss told me... I was ontop of a 1000' to 2000' foot tower at night time hanging off a 125' pole ontop of the tower and the fiberglass hand holds kept breaking off. There wasn't anything else to hold onto and there was no way to have a safety, so I was free climbing.

[@TyEMW1014]

if it was easy they would have *^*& and &*^$& up here and we wouldn't have a job. have fun with your little boot problem or whatever

[@joshm9163]

Is that the kid that sang about fudge rounds?

[@ExtraRice365]

Origin USA (+Canada) I'm ok with that on occasion

[@loganviking3923]

And to be fair, that was a machine part, not material for the product. All products are still 100% U.S. made ("from dirt to shirt" as the moto goes).

[@SteelCityIceBirds]

Why not a leather midsole? I know rubber adheres to rubber better but leather is still a very viable option.

[@asknwclips7672]

Bummah!

[@steve_believes]

“If it was easy everybody would do it.” Yes.

[@dsdiesel8667]

Why not go go for a leather midsole?

[@jaquima36]

go to a leather midsole?

[@Tony2Wild3]

Buy the midsole company 👀

[@amberandrews-ls6mr]

It would be a better boot with a leather midsole

[@andyjwagner]

Come on… Canadian supplier? German? Just temporarily.😂

[@FreemanSprings]

Sure would be nice if I could spend my hard earned money, on US company in my home state.. but they don’t make anything big enough to fit my foot.

[@PaddleDogC5]

Sasquatch?

[@ChristopherBodiford]

pr stunt?

[@PaddleDogC5]

You're in business stop crying.

[@Harryed81]

Your boots are trash. I destroyed mine in one 10hr day. I feel bad for people that spend their hard earned money on this junk.

[@donnyshankles7852]

why the fuck all yalls shit cost as much as gucci. shits pretty gay

[@dawn19maria]

Gucci is not made in the USA. Not going to spend my freedom dollars on their products.

[@donnyshankles7852]

@@dawn19maria im not spending 70 dollars on a shirt i dont give a damn if it was made in heaven by jesus himself. this just boutique clothing for blue collar cosplayers.

[@michaelfeduccia7989]

​@donnyshankles7852 spend your time and money elsewhere then. Geez. It's about creating American jobs and pride in craftsmanship.

[@htownblue11]

Gucci makes trash product that rarely lasts. There is an entire industry of Gucci returned product that the manufacturer won’t even fix, they sell in used bulk. Look inside a Gucci purse or shirt next time you’re near their store…..you’ll see frays on the inside straight from the Chinese and Pakistan factory they source their stuff from. At least Origin makes a quality product that isn’t robbing people due to a “brand”.

[@loganviking3923]

Actually paying their workers instead of using sweat shop slave labor is a big cost, as is sourcing 100% of the material from the U.S. And their products are all outstanding quality. If you don't want their level of quality or to support their mission to rebuild American manufacturing, but instead prefer to buy subpar products while supporting slavery and the continued death of American manufacturing, that's your prerogative.
