Duluth Trading

Nice store with a variety of products for men and women including a great selection of smart wool socks! The «tool museum» made me laugh — just a bunch of unlabeled tools hung up in the back of the store.

I really like their sturdy jeans with their 14.5 oz. fabric and attractive, triple stitching down the leg. If you order by mail, be warned, the waist may run one size small. (my Levi’s 33= Duluth Ballroom’s 34)

Not just a catalog anymore!
Storefront in historic building in cute downtown Mount Horeb in the site of the former Mustard Museum. You’d wouldn’t recognize the place though, a full renovation, this place is beaming from the clean up.
While they have fabulous and sturdy clothing choices for men and a variety of manly hobbies, they also carry women’s clothing, shoes, boots and a whole fun gift area. Toys for kids, toys for adults with a old school twist, books on wood working, thingy ma doozits, tools, leather wallets, purses, bags, and more.
Don’t forget to check out Wally’s Tool museum with hundreds of old tools to check out and wonder what the heck they are all for.
While over all this is on the pricier side of things, their clothing lasts forever, where else would you get firehose pants?

Having worn their clothes for years, this was my first visit to their store. The store has a very nice layout and even a sitting area and fresh coffee being served. There was a wide variety of work clothes and outdoor clothes, as well as a section on tools and gadgets. One neat feature was a small museum of historical tools within the store. They are a tad pricey though.

I’ve made it to the store! This place is awesome! The staff was very friendly and helpful. Their positive attitudes made the difference from a gadget shopping trip to a full fledged shopping experience. I know I got great items and seeing them and trying them on made all the difference.

I use their mail order. I would live to visit the store someday. It is on the lower end of my bucket list.
I love lightweight and warm. The buck naked underwear (both long and short) is both. What originally attracted me is that the store was located in Wisconsin, and if they made clothes for outdoors it must be warm.
I also have a fascination with warm soft socks. I only wear Duluth Trading socks now.
If you are looking for ear bands to keep your ears warm, buy them here.
Never been disappointed.

Serious workman’s clothing. Your well-​dressed electrician or plumber will be wearing this gear. Or if you spend some time outdoors in the not-​always-​pleasant weather as I do they’ve got stuff for you.
I bought a pair of shoes in the store. Plenty of time to wear them around while I visited the tool museum and other items of interest in the store. But when I got them home these shoes morphed into foot hobbling weapons. I’ll take full responsibility for this problem. But now having worn these shoes for a half day on errands I was at the company’s mercy for a refund.
No problem. Following clear online instructions I shipped the shoes back (at my cost) and received a full refund. And THEY even apologized to me. I thought this was a gracious response. I’m sorry the sale ended in a refund. But I think this reinforces the idea that you can buy from this store and they will stand behind their merchandise.
I look forward to buying something that I’ll actually keep!

I shop online because I don’t like to go to malls only to find out store after store is out of my size or out of a color on everything I might want to buy. SO it’s annoying when I order something and get a return email that says it’s back ordered for two months. Nice trendy store for now, but if you don’t have it, don’t try to sell it. What a shame.

I visited Duluth Trading Company a couple of weeks ago while traveling. In fact, I actually went out of the way to visit this place. After seeing all of the television commercials and advertisements in the mags, I thought I have got to go.
The main reason I wanted to check it out was I was under the impression that this place was made here in the good old USA. Well, I was WAY WRONG. Lately, I have been into the «support the made in USA» thing. Without a doubt, a great cause, you know, if you can buy something American made, buy that instead of the Chinese crap.
The main point I would like to point out here is Duluth TC gives the impression that their products are true red white and blue, but in fact most of their clothing is imported. Pants, shirts, undies, etc.
For what it is (pants, shirts, etc) it is very expensive for what you get. I think Duluth TC is really interested in being more of a «trendy» thing, like Eddie Bauer stuff. You know, Chinese polo shirts for $ 70.00.
Kind of crazy.
I was very disappointed to say the least.
I think Duluth TC should stop attempting to carry the impression they are a seller of American stuff from the old days when everything was made here. It is misleading.

I have been a customer of Duluth Trading Company for years, but always through their catalogs. I didn’t even know they had a brick and mortar store till we planned a short getaway trip to the Mt. Horeb Wisconsin area. Lo and behold, there was the DTC flagship store standing right where the Mustard Museum had been. (Another story for another day).
DTC is my kind of store. In a sea of boutickytacky shops, it stands out with it’s work pants made from fire-​hose fabrics and tee shirts designed to solve the age old problem of «Plumber’s Butt». Do you like cool tools and gadgets? This is the store for you.
They have a nice seating area, and actually encourage you to take a break from shopping for a sit down with a cup of coffee or tea (free of course). The entire store is inviting and a nice added feature is the old tool museum. It is very interesting and includes a quiz where you try and guess the use of assorted old instruments. (The only one I managed to answer correctly was the bull castrater, LOL)
DTC is a bit pricey, but the quality of the merchandise is high, the entertainment factor is spot on and the service is polite and friendly. If you are in the Madison Wi. area, this is a store well worth visiting.
I’m still wondering why the store is in Mt. Horeb Wi. and not Duluth Mn. A mystery to ponder on a snowy afternoon.

Pretty awesome store.
Products are not for everyone, tend to be geared towards laborers, field workers, and the outdoorsy.
Quality is high, selection is high, and the style (for this type of clothing) is the best I’ve seen.
Store is clean, organized, staff is friendly. Nice place to relax with a cup of coffee, and lots of cool stuff to browse through.
