Once upon a tree . . .

When Illinois woodsman Frank C. Nieman started climbing trees for a living some forty years ago, his crew wanted forearms as rugged and tough as his. So, to strengthen their grip to handle the tree-lines for climbing, he created what was first known as 'the Winder.'

Today Mr. Nieman has redesigned, perfected, expanded upon, and now re-christened his 'Winder.'

Each set of SideWinders™ is meticulously manufactured by hand with you in mind. We promise that you, too, will soon see that the difference lies in the grip!

. . . and that is how the SideWinder™ got started.
