Top Fall Picks

Flannel-lined Fire Hose Action Jacket $79.50: Dirt-repelling Fire Hose fabric is evolutionary because it’s tough as nails, yet still soft and flexible. Ingenious features include a bi-swing back to allow shoulders full range of movement, eight pockets to stow a bunch of stuff and interior storm cuffs keep out wind and water. Dropped back tail offers extra protection when you bend over and the soft flannel lining is quilted for warmth. Princess seams add a hint of shape, so it’s nothing like a boxy men’s jacket. 11.5-oz. 100% cotton with Teflon® finish. Available in brown w/dark red plaid, coffee w/light purple plaid and dark red w/dark red plaid.

Berber-lined Fire Hose Parka $89.50: Made of exclusive Fire Hose, our tough, grime-fighting canvas, the parka is lined with polyester berber, which traps warmth but wicks moisture. Loaded with nine pockets, it also has an easy-moving bi-swing back, a two-way front zip and an adjustable hood. Side vents unsnap for extra ease when you sit or crouch and an interior waist drawcord snugs tight for a trimmer fit. 11.5-oz. cotton canvas with Teflon® finish. Available in navy and brown.

Shoreline Fleece Pocket Scarf $19.50: Whether skiing, jogging, or just running out to the store, the roomy zip pockets on each end of the Shoreline Pocket Scarf makes it easy to store cash, keys, tissues and other random winter necessities. Its two layers of fleece form a wind-blocking barrier keeping necks warm and valuables safe. Available in gray, black, dark red, navy.

Shoreline Fleece Ponytail Hat $19.50 : The Shoreline Ponytail Hat is crafted from the same beefy fleece as Duluth Trading’s famous Shoreline Jacket, so it can be counted on to protect the head and ears in fierce weather. Has a slot in back to pull your ponytail through – a hard feature to find in other hats! Best of all, it is 100% windproof and water-repellent. Available in dark red, light lime, black, gray and navy. Shoreline Fleece Ponytail Earband ($14.50) also available.

Thermal Waffle Longtail Henley $24.50: The fabric's grid pattern actually traps body heat in each of its little squares, keeping it close to your skin as temperatures dip. The signature Longtail hem is an extra two inches longer for better "bending over" coverage. Available in dark brown, dark red, green heather, light purple and natural.

Shoreline Fleece Jacket $69.50 and Shoreline Fleece Vest Tough enough for the wildest winter weather, the Shoreline Fleece Jacket and Vest each contain a wind- and waterproof – yet breathable – membrane between two layers of thick, insulating fleece. The vest keeps your core warm but your arms free, while the easy-moving jacket does the work of the 3 to 4 layers you might’ve needed in the past. Perfect to transition from chilly fall days to frigid winter weather, to tackle even the toughest outdoor work. Available in a wide variety of colors, including black, chestnut, purple, lime green and pacific blue.

Brushed Canvas Work Shirt $29.50: This is no dainty work shirt, the garment-washed cotton shirt is soft yet extremely durable. Unlike most women’s work shirts, these have ingenious hidden spandex inserts behind each shoulder that stretch with you. No straining against the seams when you lift, reach or dig. Work shirt has two chest pockets, two-button cuffs. Available in aqua, dark lapis, green heather, mahogany, oatmeal heather, peach and red.

Jumbo Tote $39.50 and Weekender Tote $49.50: The Jumbo Travel Tote is as durable and sturdy as the original, with a front organizer pocket and five pockets inside. Cotton canvas holds up to everyday use, and the web straps are reinforced for strength under heavy loads. Holds everything but the kitchen sink! The new Weekender Tote is big enough to fit everything you need for a weekend and more, but built to keep even your smallest items organized and easily accessible. Both available in wheat, burnt orange, dark plum, sage and washed brown.

Lifetime Leather Saddle Bag $99.50 : Modeled after a classic rider's bag, The Saddle Bag is crafted with careful attention to detail. Its oiled leather naturally has variations in color and texture that make each bag completely unique. Some folks tell us they even take it out to the barn, the leather is so durable and easy to clean! Hands-free messenger style is convenient and secure, too. Available in brown leather.

About Duluth Trading Company

Duluth Trading Company (www.duluthtrading.com) was founded in 1993 by two tradesmen brothers tired of making do with inadequate job site equipment. Their first catalog included just nine tool organizers, all field-tested for practicality by grizzly construction guys and hard-as-nails tradesmen. Since then, Duluth Trading has expanded its offering to include hundreds of unique, tough, functional workwear products, tool and car organizers and gotta-have gadgets. Recently, Duluth Trading has introduced and retooled its women’s workwear line, building on the durability, functionality, and unique usefulness built into its men’s line.

Duluth Trading’s adherence to authenticity and commitment to craftsmanship is evidenced in the products. Men’s workwear is designed and tested by the Duluth Trades Panel and the women’s line is tested and approved by the Duluth’s Real Women Test Panel. All panel members have hands-on occupations who know a good – or bad – product when they see one. Signature products include the Longtail T® (the cure for “plumber butt”), men’s Ballroom Jeans (with a comfy crotch gusset for crouching without singing soprano), and exclusive Fire Hose® Workwear (made from tough but soft cotton canvas inspired by the kind that once protected actual fire hoses). Duluth Trading Company is located in Belleville, Wisconsin, and is opening its flagship retail store at 100 W. Main Street, Mount Horeb, Wisconsin in November 2010.
