 MANUFACTURING PROCESS
Almost all Nike shoes are manufactured outside of the United States.
The leading manufacturer of Nike shoes is China and Vietnam each accounting for 36% of the total
manufactured world wide. Indonesia accounts for 22% and Thailand for 6% of the Nike shoes that are being
produced world wide.
There are 785 contract factories with more then 1 million workers manufacturing more then 500,000 different
products.
To make the shoe the worker first cuts all the material in the shapes and forms they need to be in, they then sew
the pieces together on the upper section above the sole. The workers then prepare the sole also called stock
fitting, followed by preparing the attachment of upper to the sole also know as lasting. Then the worker attaches
and shapes the bottom heel to its final form this process is called heeling. The finishing touches are made and
any necessary accessories are then attached in the process called treeing.
