Debt Disclosure [Text Block] | Note 6 — Borrowings On January 21, 2019, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“2019 Restated Credit Agreement”) among the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Indian Industries, Inc. (“Indian”), each of their domestic subsidiaries, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent and as Lender (the “Lender”). Under the terms of the 2019 Restated Credit Agreement, the Lender made available to the Company a senior revolving credit facility with maximum availability of $50.0 million having a maturity date of January 31, 2022. The 2019 Restated Credit Agreement also allowed Escalade to request the issuance of letters of credit of up to $5.0 million. On December 14, 2020, the Company entered into the Third Amendment dated as of December 14, 2020 (the “Third Amendment”) to the 2019 Restated Credit Agreement. Under the terms of the Third Amendment, the maximum availability under the senior revolving credit facility increased to $75.0 million and the maturity date was extended to December 14, 2023. Other significant changes reflected in the Third Amendment included: increases in borrowing base availability if the Company’s funded debt to EBITDA ratio is less than 1.75 to 1:00; increasing to $30.0 million the total consideration that the Company may use for acquisitions without obtaining the Lender’s consent, as long as no event of default exists; resetting the maximum authorized stock repurchases to $15.0 million for the period commencing upon entry into the Third Amendment; increasing the interest rate on borrowings by twenty five basis points; increasing the unused facility fee by five basis points; and adding specific provisions and procedures for replacement of LIBOR if and when LIBOR would no longer be the benchmark for determining interest rates. On July 7, 2021, the Company entered into the Fourth Amendment dated as of July 7, 2021 (the “Fourth Amendment”) to the 2019 Restated Credit Agreement. Under the terms of the Fourth Amendment, the Lender extended a $50.0 million term loan to the Company and reduced the maximum availability under the senior revolving credit facility from $75.0 million to $50.0 million. The proceeds of the term loan were used to pay down the Company’s then-outstanding indebtedness under the revolving credit facility, with the balance of the term loan proceeds being available for general working capital purposes. The maturity date of the term loan was July 7, 2026 and the maturity date of the revolving credit facility likewise was extended to July 7, 2026. On January 21, 2022, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“2022 Restated Credit Agreement”) with its issuing bank, JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“Chase”), and the other lenders identified in the 2022 Restated Credit Agreement (collectively, the “Lenders”). Under the terms of the 2022 Restated Credit Agreement, Old National Bank was added as a Lender. The Lenders made available to the Company a senior revolving credit facility with increased maximum availability of $65.0 million (the “Revolving Facility”), up from $50.0 million, plus an accordion feature that would allow borrowings up to $90.0 million under the Revolving Facility subject to certain terms and conditions. The maturity date of the revolving credit facility was extended to January 21, 2027. The Company may prepay the Revolving Facility, in whole or in part, and reborrow prior to the revolving loan maturity date. The Restated Credit Agreement further extended the maturity date for the term loan facility to January 21, 2027. In addition to the increased borrowing amount and extended maturity date, the 2022 Restated Credit Agreement provided a $7.5 million swingline commitment by Chase, replaced LIBOR with the replacement benchmark secured overnight financing rate, and adjusted certain financial covenants relating to the fixed charge coverage ratio. On July 18, 2022, the Company entered into the First Amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the 2022 Restated Credit Agreement. Under the terms of the First Amendment, the Lenders increased the maximum availability under the senior revolving credit facility from $65.0 million to $75.0 million pursuant to the accordion feature in the 2022 Restated Credit Agreement. The First Amendment also adjusted the funded debt to EBITDA ratio financial covenant to 3:00 to 1:00 as of the end of the Company’s third and fourth fiscal quarters of 2022. On October 26, 2022, the Company entered into the Second Amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the 2022 Restated Credit Agreement Under the terms of the Second Amendment, the Lenders increased the maximum availability under the senior revolving credit facility from $75.0 million to $90.0 million pursuant to the accordion feature in the 2022 Restated Credit Agreement. The Second Amendment adjusted the funded debt to EBITDA ratio financial covenant to 3:25 to 1:00 as of the end of the Company’s third and fourth fiscal quarters of 2022 and 3:00 to 1:00 as of the end of the Company’s first fiscal quarter of 2023. The Second Amendment also modified the EBITDA definition to permit add-backs of a) up to $2.0 million for disposition related expenses; and b) up to $2.0 million for unusual or non-recurring expenses which are incurred prior to the end of fiscal year 2023 and which are subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent. Each loan will bear interest based on the applicable SOFR rate for the interest period in effect plus the Applicable Rate. From October 26, 2022 up to and including the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2023, the applicable rate per annum is set forth below in Category 1. After the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2023, the Applicable Rate shall be determined as of the end of each quarter based upon Escalade’s Funded Debt to Adjusted Ratio as of the most recent determination date:

The Applicable Rate is determined as of the end of each quarter based upon the Company’s annual or quarterly consolidated financial statements and is effective during the period commencing the date of delivery to the agent.
