For women anxious to have at their gardens this Spring, Duluth Trading Company is launching its most durable, functional and fashionable gear for tackling Spring chores. The company’s women’s collection now offers more vests, jackets and pants that keep up.
Duluth Trading has taken all the ingenuity, performance and durability of its men’s line to develop feminine products tough enough for work, yet figure-friendly for a woman’s comfort and fit. Designed with gardeners and outdoor enthusiasts in mind, Duluth women’s workwear can withstand burrs, thorns, mud and the sweltering sun to provide layers of protection from the elements and terrain, not to mention the washer and dryer.
“Women work relentlessly, play hard and travel in our gear, so it’s important for Duluth to get the details right,” says Stephanie Pugliese, senior vice president marketing and product development. “While we’re all about flexible, functional gear, we also realize our customers want good-looking pieces with a feminine edge in terms of a contoured fit, styles and color offerings.”
