We were sadden to hear of the passing of an extraordinary VukPack member, SSG James L. Wento. The Staff Sgt. was a huge supporter of VukGripz since our start. He really helped our company grow by supporting our small business during his softball career. To honor his memory, we created the SSG JAMES L. WENTO TRIBUTE GRIP! This grip can be used in any sport or on anything you'd like to apply it too.  

100% of the profits will be donated to the SSG JAMES L. WENTO scholarship called: THE GLOVE. This was created by his family to honor his memory and to provide support to students!

"James was a very humble, dedicated soldier, and an inspiration to many. He was a loving son, brother and daddy. He was a mentor, and was involved in the big brother program and loved it. James was selfless and would do anything to help someone in need!" - Katy Wento (sister)

James was a Staff Sgt. in the Military stationed in South Korea at Camp Humphreys. He was assigned to the 2nd Combat Aviation Brigade. 

"SSG Wento was an extraordinary Soldier, leader, and father," Lt. Col. Bridget Dalziel, Wento's battalion commander, said in a news release. "He was an important member of the 2-2 Assault Helicopter Battalion family and will be sincerely missed." Armytimes.com
