Anyone buy clothes from this place? I looked at their site and they have some nice clothes but dang they are expensive. I would like to try some of their socks and shirts but without being able to look at them in a store and the price I am just not sure.

I had some overalls and loved them but the snaps on the straps would break off in the dryer. They replaced them but the new ones did the same. Their work clothes are very durable.

$20 for a short sleeve pocket teeshirt?
I don't think so--do what ya want, at the end of the day, it's still just a tee shirt.

I've been wearing Carhartt T shirts for years. lately I have been very disappointed in the quality. It's according to which foreign country that they were made in determines what size you need. Also the collars are not as heavy as they once were and stretch out pretty fast. I broke down and bought two from Duluth and am pleased so far. I am going to ask Santa to start getting me a couple every year to replace my carhartt's. They are pricey but I have some old Carhartt's, from when they were well made, that I have been wearing for years.

But they are expensive as heck.

greybeard, they may be $20, but you ever tried to find a good T shirt with a pocket and long enough to stay tucked in when you bend over? When you do, do you know what size you need? An extra large made in the orient usually equals something much smaller in actuality.

Buying clothes is a pain in the butt, however these shirts cover your butt!!

I have two pairs of the firehose pants. If compared to the jeans I usually wear around the farm, they're worth 5 times what they cost. It's nearly impossible to put a hole in them, but in the few cases I've got caught on barbed wire, it'll make a 1/4" hole and the hole never grow. I wear the ones with all the pockets/loops, really handy when building fence. I've heard that if you ever do wear them out or put a hole in them, send them back and they'll send you a new pair.
I don't have anything else, but have never heard anything negative. As far as I know, everything is top notch. I'm notoriously cheap, but got tired of tearing up a pair of jeans with every little piece of fence I built. Now I wear the same pants for everything around the farm, and it's been about a year and a half and they're barely broken in.

Anyone wear their socks? I have problem with my feet sweating even in sneakers even in the winter. I am wearing the craftsman socks and they are the best I have found but still not that good at keeping my feet dry. I am like GB I can't get over the $20 t-shirt and $14 socks.

Yes only socks I wear. And the cheapest socks I have found. My feet sweat bad too. I get the thin tall ones. I have several pair pushing 4 years old. One pair has some small holes, couple are stretched out. All the rest are same as new. This is all day everyday in red wings. Have some other stuff too all top notch last better than anything I have tried. Had a flannel that shrunk when washed sent it back no problem. When stuff cost twice as much and last four times longer pretty fair deal.

One of my favorite places to shop online. Work shirts and pants hold up really well. Good customer service to boot.

I checked out their web page. I had never heard of their clothes before. Their blue jeans, and button down shirts (all I wear 24/7) didn't seem like they cost much more than what I wear. If they last longer, then it's a better buy.

My wife shops there. If I am in tow - - they have a man cave with free coffee in the back of the store where I hang for a while.

I get most of my stuff at Good Will, :nod: to save up for Fleet Farm!

Mine sweat bad too. 74° in the house right now and they are ice cold.
Last winter I heard a trick to try and it works some. Spray your feet with antiperspirant. Ill prolly start spraying mine this week and keep on till about May.

And yeah, Deluth trading is good stuff.

I have their firehose pants also. I have both the standard and the heavy duty. Both are excellent.
But I notice that almost everything they sell is imported. I love the product just wish it was made in the USA.
Edit: this got me in the mood to order a fire hose shirt. Their website says I have to update my computer before I can order. Never seen that before.

It's good stuff, but imported as mentioned. Firehose flex pants are very nice.

I've had it happen before Kenny--usually, it's because the encryption on your computer is not up to latest standards, or your network is not deemed secure enough to guarantee you online security during the transaction.
Just make sure you are indeed 'handshaking' with the website you intend to be and not some redirected page from a different website.

Bird dog try fastening the straps on your overalls before putting them in the dryer, has helped mine and not as noisy. :tiphat:
