Skillers Workwear is the brainchild of Matti Viio, a former electrician who got "mad as hell" at the shortcomings of traditional work wear in the early 1970's. As a result of Viio's vision that work clothing should protect both the personal and professional pride of contractors and the service industry, Snickers was founded in 1972 in Sweden. |
