The Thorogood story reaches back into history, over a quarter century ago in Milwaukee, WI, USA. Since 1892 this brand has been a haven of quality and comfort for countless people. What Albert H. Weinbrenner and Joseph Peffer would begin work together as cobblers at first would grow beyond their imaginations.
Within the next 25 years, the company would undergo several vital changes as times changed and business grew. From switching to 100% wartime production during WWII to developing safety footwear. Today, Thorogood calls Merrill, WI home.
Just shy of 100 years, in 1988 the company would be bought by locals. Some of these buyers happened to be employees. Twelve short years later, employees would take complete ownership as a benefit provided by the company.
When September 11th occurred, Thorogood donated boots to the rescue effort at ground zero. Five hundred total pairs were sent that were undoubtedly crucial to the incredible people there.
It isn’t often one comes across a true American company which embodies these strong homegrown values. Aside from how the company supports freedom, they produce a beautiful pair of boots that will last a very long time with correct care and attention.
Since making a great product isn’t enough, Thorogood provides many resources for customers who want their investment to last. One can even find restoration information on thorogoodusa.com.
