Ha ! Closest being highly relative-- To put it in perspective --- as in roughly driving 6 times across Virginia to equal one round trip San Fran to Denver and back. Not sure the clothes are that good

Not sure where to find the clothes, but the ads give me a very positive impression of the company. Glad to hear the clothes are well regarded.
Take your mountain bike to Duluth and you'll find a store even though HQ and offices are a few hundred mi south near me.

I think most of their sales are via Internet.

Their success doesn't surprise me. When the Internet was a new thing my employer did a project for the 2nd owner of the firm who's still the chairman. The guy was sharp, demanding and really driven.

On this thread, I blame the fact that a pair of "ballroom" jeans and a "free swingin'" flannel shirt are headed my way.

I had a pair of their firehose work pants that I found actually wore out pretty quickly, because the fabric finish is somewhat rough, and that wore down the crotch area a lot quicker than I expected. You wanna talk about ballroom?!?!

I was considering getting one of their jackets when orders were discounted 20% earlier in the week. That sale ended before I ordered, but then I saw the jacket in question was marked down $20. After I'd ordered it, I rechecked their website to find it had gone down another $10. I called up, and they gave me the entire $30 discount....

I have a bunch of their clothes, wearing a Duluth long sleeve t-shirt as we speak. I always buy on sale, check the clearance section on their website for some super deals. Their clothes really do last a long time.

I'll have to eat some words. I see they have some trim fit stuff now and much of it on sale.

I’ve bought a few times from them. Good quality and the tv ads are funny. What I don’t like is the seemingly endless emails they send me even though I check the box not to send promotional emails.

That's kind of a personal question, and I can't answer honestly in polite company. I do consider the AGF polite company.

I'm retired, don't need work clothes. Most of my shopping now is at Wal-Mart and consists of $5.97 sweatshirts, $4.00 bag of heavy black socks, $6,00 packs of Fruit of the Loom knit boxers, and $9.00 elastic waist chinos.

I do tend to get my boots and outerwear from Blundstone and L.L. Bean.
