Check out these top products for every outdoor enthusiast. 

Outlander Pack

The ultimate outdoors backpack will have side pockets, zippers, buckles, and straps to fit all your hiking gear comfortably and reliably. The Duluth Pack Outlander Pack does it all.

Every camper needs to carry a fire starter with them, no matter how experienced they are. Our wax canvas fire starter is perfect to keep in your pack thanks to its compact size and ease of use.

For every hour of activity outside, you need to drink at least one liter of water. Keep your water bottle accessible and easy to grab with the Duluth Pack Water Bottle Holder. Made from the same durable canvas as the rest of Duluth Pack products, the water bottle holder comes with a sling strap to wear across your body.

Plunge Mitts
