INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN THE REPORT

Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

     On July 19, 2004, the Registrant acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Altama Delta Corporation (“Altama”), a designer, manufacturer and distributor of combat and tactical boots for U.S. and foreign militaries, government agencies and the commercial sector. The stock was acquired from W. Whitlow Wyatt, Altama’s sole shareholder and President and Chief Executive Officer.

     The purchase price for the stock was $38.0 million, payable with $35.5 million in cash and 196,967 shares of the Registrant’s common stock valued at $2.5 million, plus an earnout payment of $2.0 million subject to Altama meeting certain sales requirements. Additionally, the Registrant agreed to pay Mr. Wyatt $2.0 million in consideration for a five-year covenant-not-to-compete and other restrictive covenants, and to enter into a two-year consulting agreement with him for an annual consulting fee of $100,000.

     In connection with the transaction, the Registrant conducted a public offering of 2.5 million shares of its common stock and also amended its existing credit facility with Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company. The Registrant raised net proceeds in the public offering of approximately $29.4 million. In amending its credit facility, the Registrant increased its borrowing capacity to $33.4 million, and obtained a new $10.0 million term loan. The closing of the public offering and the amended credit facility also occurred on July 19, 2004. The cash portion of the acquisition purchase price was paid with the net proceeds from the public offering and borrowings under the amended credit facility. The purchase price was determined through arms-length negotiations between the parties.

     On July 19, 2004, the Registrant issued a press release announcing the completion of the acquisition of Altama.
