This archival blog, covering the years before, during, and after my owning Stompers Boots is a big salute and...

THANK YOU

to all the inside boot crew staff and the outside family of friends who made this journey some of the best years of my life!

Stompers Crew

The following scrapbook of shots are a collection of the wonderful people who worked full-time or part-time at the shop with me — guys who were helpers at our parties, or just good buddies who lent some time. For now, you'll see multiple pictures of some people or just a single shot of someone. This doesn't indicate any favoritism. As I locate more staff and crew pictures, I will add them here.
