Winters were cold in Northern Wisconsin. The farm kids had to walk to school in their un-insulated leather boots over snow-covered fields. They stamped their feet in the snow to get rid of the pins and needles of the cold poking at their feet. Grappa didn't like that so much. One day, one of his cohorts, Otto Pavek said, "Eddo--Here, try these felt liners for your feet. If you don't want 'em, I'll take 'em back." So Grappa gave 'em a try. He was amazed that these gray liners kept his feet toasty and warm all day long!
