The old company really didn't exist anymore, the original operation in Utica NY was long gone. The name had changed hands a couple times, ending up with Walls Workwear who hadn't produced any of the clothing in years or maybe ever. There really wasn't anything left to acquire except the name itself and to start from scratch. They're hard at work adding items to the product line and trying to get retailers. It all just takes time.
