Is Timberland Boots made in China or the USA?
A US-founded brand owned by VF can use overseas manufacturing. VF’s country-level sourcing mix is group-wide, so it cannot establish that a particular Timberland boot is made in China or the United States. [1][2]
Same factory, different label
Timberland and Vans share VF ownership. That ownership relationship is supported by the filings; a claim that the two brands use an identical shoe, last or assembly line is not. [1][2]
