Martin Dingman

Over 50 years ago, when Martin was a boy, the Martin Dingman Countrywear heritage began. Born in Iowa, raised in Southern Missouri, summers were spent on horseback working the family's herd of Black Angus cattle. Much of the time he enjoyed helping Grandfather Nickell, who passed on the value of an honest handshake and a deep appreciation of country living. The textures and colors of old barns, alfalfa fields, and a tack room full of handcrafted saddles permanently imprinted the marrow of his bones and the retina of his eyes. Since 1983, these boyhood memories have tremendously influenced his timeless collections. Martin is steadfast in his dedication to quality and authenticity, which are revealed throughout his apparel and leathergoods collections. Every piece tells a unique story of heritage, quality, and the “Refined Country Life”. If creating the finest means selling less, then Martin's ultimate goal is to create one piece so fine, that when the man who originally owned it has finally gone, his son can merely hold it and feel his father's presence. Martin Dingman Countrywear is coveted by men of integrity, uncompromising principles, and men who embrace sophisticated country style. Each collection celebrates gentlemen who enjoy nothing more than the sound of a line perfectly cast over a babbling brook, the smell of spent shotgun shells, or the thrill of a flushed covey.
