Anderson Bean · Identification & Dating
Construction / ID tells
- Channeled welt (recessed stitch / low profile) — shared with Rios (AB About; Trainor Evans factory demos).
- Steel shank + wooden / lemonwood pegs in the arch; all-leather language.
- Signature AB toe profile is a brand claim and is widely copied — not a stamp by itself.
- Photograph brand stamp + style number to separate from Rios on the same benches.
- Factory geography: Anderson Bean + Rios = Mercedes, Texas handmade. Do not treat a pair as Macie Bean / Horse Power (Guanajuato) or collapse those Mexico lines into this page.
Maker-specific markings guidance has not been documented yet. Preserve the complete stamp and compare it against dated sources.
