Another boutique dealer that could not afford the required BLING MOCO wanted. I feel sorry for the owners.

Was that a sister store of Lakeland? I think I have a Ridge HD shirt somewhere that I got soon after they opened. The place can't be more than 5 years old.

Yes it was a sister store of Lakleand. The owners are nice folks I hate it for them but Lakeland seems to be doing ok.
