| 13. | SEGMENT INFORMATION
Operating Segments - We operate our business through three business segments: wholesale, retail and military. Wholesale. In our wholesale segment, our products are offered in over ten thousand retail locations representing a wide range of distribution channels in the U.S. and Canada. These distribution channels vary by product line and target market and include sporting goods stores, outdoor retailers, independent shoe retailers, hardware stores, catalogs, mass merchants, uniform stores, farm store chains, specialty safety stores and other specialty retailers. Retail. In our retail segment, we primarily sell our products directly to consumers through our consumer and business direct websites and our Rocky outlet store. We also operate four mobile trucks to service the New York Transit Authority’s employees. Through our outlet store, we generally sell first quality or discontinued products in addition to a limited amount of factory damaged goods, which typically carry lower gross margins. Military. While we are focused on continuing to build our wholesale and retail business, we also actively bid, from time to time, on footwear contracts with the U.S. military. Our sales under such contracts are dependent on us winning the bids for these contracts. We are currently fulfilling several multiyear contracts for the U.S. military. Total sales to the U.S. military represented 14.4%, 6.5% and 2.8% of total net sales for the years ending December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The following is a summary of segment results for the Wholesale, Retail, and Military segments. Certain amounts from prior year have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.
