Dow Jones Description
We design, develop and market mens and womens footwear, belts, and accessories. The brands we own are Trotters ® , SoftWalk ® , and H.S.

During fiscal 2008, our operations were comprised of three reportable segments: footwear, premium footwear, and accessories. Our footwear segment included our Trotter and SoftWalk brands. Our premium footwear segment consisted of H.S. Trask and Tommy Bahama. In our accessories segment, we sold predominately leather belts and accessories. With the discontinuance of the Companys Tommy Bahama operations in the first quarter of 2009, the Company believes the results of H.S. Trask are more appropriately reported with our Trotters and SoftWalk brands, leaving only one reportable segment.

We have been in continuing default under our Wells Fargo Credit facility since September 27, 2008 by failing to meet the financial covenant for income before income taxes. We have been in continuing discussions with Wells Fargo regarding our restructuring activities in an effort to obtain a waiver of the past financial covenant default and amend future financial covenants. ...
