GETTING THE SHAFT It seems that the gore company with their non-functioning film has what I think of as an unhealthy strangles hold on the boot or footwear industry in general and it is voluntary. Historically, Wiggy’s has sold Lamilite insulated boots since the late 1990’s starting with Herman Survivors who went out of business. I then had Wellco manufacture boots [...]

I was wearing a Wiggy’s Blue parka back then, in my off-duty time.My first winter in Anchorage was [...]

I looked at it and found they sell a large variety of products not any Nike products thus far but will have Nike this fall and winter and possibly forever.Why [...]
