New Balance-the shoe company, is headed by Jim Davis who has donated $1,000,000 to Mitt Romney’s Super PAC Restore Our Future


I have been buying New Balance Shoes, always making sure I get the ones made in the USA. Here is a receipt from my last purchase. Before that I bought them in the mall.


Order #: 5161795
Order Status: Complete
Order Placed:
March 18, 2010


New Balance 498
Shoes
Style # M498GR
US Size: 12 - 2E
Grey

Total $79.99


So yesterday I bought these for work that were made in the country of San Antonio, wherever that is.
You can see Marta has bought from them before.
