    I had the Rogue shoes with the 0.5" heel some time ago. Sadly these are no longer available.

    What are some ol' fashioned MADE IN USA offerings in the footwear department nowadays?

    International trade is a force for peace. We're much less likely to bomb, or be bombed by, a country that we've developed powerful trade relations with, that has gotten rich from trade and educated their people, that has a population who has learned our language and customs in order to trade with us. Specialization is a good thing too. Not everything needs to be made in America. We can focus on what we do best and let other countries handle the rest.

    Hector, not everything has to be geopolitical. The man just wants a pair of US-made shoes.

    I use SABO GYM, which have a 0.6" heel. Got them from maxbarbell.com. Also really good service.

    Some of the best shoes and boots money can buy are made right here in America: Allen Edmonds, Alden, Red Wing , Wolverine, LL Bean, Chippewa, Frye, Oak Street Bootmakers, etc., etc.
