    They are opening a Duluth Trading store near me in February. I didn't even know that was a thing. I've looked at their catalogs but never ordered anything.

    Anyone ever go to one of their stores?

    I'm going to talk to them about carrying Expat Knives.

    I have been to their store in Ankeny, Ia.
    they just opened one in Independence, Mo a week or so ago - that's just 10 miles East of KC, and shares a parking lot with a pretty fair sized Bass Pro.
    the stores stock MOST of the things they have online, but I do not know if they honor online sale prices or how they deal with warranty claims.

    Thanks. Must be a standard business model because the one here will share a parking lot with Cabelas.

    Let me know if you are going to do carry out orders and I will get my info to you. I'll just meet you somewhere along the I=70 corridor to get my stuff from you.

    I plan on heading there this weekend and check it out. I've ordered a few things over the years from them. Would have purchased more if I could have seen it in person.

    Take lots of pics of the inside of the store and post here. I'm designing my display stand.

    I work in Topeka - depending on when you roll past, could possibly meet up for a meal or a snack.

    I didn't know they opened a store in independence. Another place to stop next time I'm up that way.

    They recently opened one in Omaha but I haven't stopped in yet. I keep meaning to stop by after work but I always end up just going home. Almost everything I wear is Duluth Trading bought off the site. The Fire hose work pants are uber comfortable to me and I like the FOM shirts also.

    I just got back from the Duluth Trading Company in Independence, Missouri. Crowded and I think the catalog is much more impressive. I did get to see somethings in person I have been curious about. I did get to sniff the Ogallala Bay Rum Cologne that has been in their catalog forever. I almost ordered some thinking if it has been in the catalog this long it must smell good. WRONG!!!! My wife said it must be for keeping the critters away. I'll stick to my expensive stuff.

    Never been to a store, but I recently picked up a pair of their firehose pants and love them.

    Got one of the shoremans fleece coats for a gift after bigjake recommended them. Really want to try on the vest they have now.

    I am located in Duluth Minnesota, and they finally brought a store back into town after being gone alot of years. They caught alot of flak from locals for corporate moving to Wisconsin a long time ago, with no presence in Duluth (until recently). They've got alot of good stuff to choose from, I am a big fan of their Dry on the Fly pants. Their knife selection is kind of a mix of anything and everything out there, but is pretty limited. Very overpriced, but I think they are appealing to the impulse shopper at the store, who has little to no knowledge of the knife market.
