In 1895 skilled craftsmen in the shoe industry withdrew from the Knights of Labor to form the Boot and Shoe Workers Union in affiliation with the American Federation of Labor. The union merged with the Retail Clerks International Union in 1977. Two years later the Retail Clerks merged with the Amalgamated Meat Cutters to form the United Food and Commercial Workers, which have continued to oversee boot and shoe workers into the twenty-first century.
