Because it's
Vegas, Baby,   Vegas!

We just came back from Las Vegas (the one in Nevada) where we attended the 1999 Silver Cup Awards and Expo put on by the Shoe Service Institute of America (SSIA).

The Silver Cup Awards recognize excellence in our industry for repair and retail/marketing.

We picked up a bronze and a gold in the shoe repair categories and three golds in the retail/marketing category.  Click here for the news release and more photos.

We saw a whack of new products that can help us take better care of the shoes that take care of your feet.  Rest assured that we'll be bringing some in.

Oh yeah, we picked up one last award.  How does 1999 Retailer of the Year sound?

We know very well how it sounds and are, quite frankly, getting a little tired of listening to ourselves.  But this doesn't mean we won't tell YOU about it if you ask.  Perhaps even if you don't...
