Sorry in advance if this isn't the right place to post this. I saw previous questions about EVA here and I didn't see another forum title that made more sense.

I'm looking to have EVA foam injection molded shoes made in the US. Every place I've talked to - over 100 - all do design work in the US but offshore the manufacturing, usually to China.

It's important for this product to have the "Made in the USA" label.

Can anyone recommend OEM's in the US that can handle EVA Injection (think "Crocs" or garden shoes, for example)?

Thank you!

There are still companies molding EVA in the states, although the vast majority is certainly in Asia. 0.60 seconds of Google supercomputer time yielded at least several good prospects.

It is better to have enough ideas for some of them to be wrong, than to be always right by having no ideas at all.
