you determined that no other executive officers as defined in Exchange Act Rule 3b-7 should be included. In this regard, we note
several vice presidents who appear to be in charge of a principal business unit, division or function. For example, we note Judy
Anderson, Vice President, Finance and Treasurer (Principal Accounting Officer) signed your Form 10-K. We also note your website

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.25in">We acknowledge that Rule 240.3b-7 under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 <FONT STYLE="color: windowtext">defines</FONT> &ldquo;executive officer&quot; to include a
company's &quot;president, any vice president of the registrant in charge of a principal business unit, division or function (such
as sales, administration or finance), any other officer who performs a policy making function or any other person who performs
similar policy making functions for the registrant.&quot; As a result of the Florsheim acquisition in 2002, job duties were adjusted
and certain changes were made to the Company&rsquo;s internal structure which resulted in the Company creating a Senior Vice President
level. Thereafter, the Company considered anyone with the Senior Vice President title to be its &ldquo;executive officers.&rdquo;
The Board of Directors of the Company (the &quot;Board&quot;) directly elects the executive officers and grants them the power
and authority to appoint other officers. The Company has, in good faith, relied upon this process in determining who it has disclosed
as an &quot;executive officer.&quot; Due to retirements, the number of Senior Vice Presidents has declined resulting in only three
Senior Vice Presidents remaining since 2012.</P>
