Google Glass headsets will be manufactured in the US, according to a report from The Financial Times . Specifically, Google wil be manufacturing the headsets at a Foxconn plant in Santa Clara, California, making it the second product that we know Google has manufactured on US soil.

As the initial product run will be a complicated and high-cost production, Google appears to think it makes more sense to do it closer to home so they can monitor the process.
This production run will also be much more limited in number compared to the size of production for other Google products like the LG-made Nexus 4 or Asus...
