Dear Friends:

As I say every year, "It's hard to believe the year 20__ has gone by so fast. Where did the time go?" It is the same now at the end of 2023... am I the only one who seems to think that lately, the years seem to be flying by much more quickly?

2024 looks to be very positive. Our last trade show of 2023 was BDNY (Boutique Design New York) in November, and we had 31% more catalog requests than in 2022 and far more attendees. All good.

In January, we will be mailing a new full-line catalog, 224 pages of great stuff! Look for yours mid to late month.

2023 brought us a nice 10% increase in our Annual Design Competition entries. Winner(s) are to be announced before the year's end.

We are into our 6th year of supporting Shoes for the Homeless here in Los Angeles, which is home to 50,000 souls who are currently homeless or unsheltered.

All of us here wish you and yours a warm Holiday Season. And a wonderful 2024!

Cordially,
Douglas A.J. Mockett
President
