    Is it true that Docs are being made in England again? They had moved their factories to China...that's when I quit buying them. A kid at work said he thought they were being made in the UK again. I hope so. Anyone know?

    Yes, they are producing some models in England again. If you go to their website, they have a 'made in england' section of products.

    They are definitely picking up steam again over here, lots of collaborations too such as Liberty London and Pendleton, they have a bespoke program as well.

    Love my Piers even if they are Chinese. Not complaints about quality.
