After the visiting the first Duluth Trading Post to open in the state of Maine a while back, I admit I wasn’t impressed. Turns out I am even less impressed with their product descriptions online.

Even if true, that’s lazy marketing.

Tactical soap? It must be going to war with your armpits…

One roll of toilet paper in a box does not a kit make.

That’s a bridge too far. Bitchin’ is about the only thing I do well these days.

River's world..... 
Rather “assinine” products, one might say!

I’ve never been impressed with them either. Their items are waaayyy over priced. But no lazy marketing? Nope.

Overpriced and uninteresting. A plain tee shirt for $40? I don’t think so.

True. I suppose there is something to be said for succinct and to the point descriptions.

There were times in the Army when we were jungle/desert deployed that I could have hocked that Sh!t Kit for $20, maybe even started a bidding war. Wiping your ass with Maple or Sycamore leaves may get the job done, but it has a habit of leaving little scratches in all the wrong places. Yes, we took a supply, but it rarely lasted the length of the deployment (and no, they did not disclose a time length expectation, and no, you did not ask, either). Your Marine Husband must have experienced this from time to time.

My husband was Force Recon in Vietnam during Tet. He has stories that aren’t fit for the dinner table… or any table for that matter. On a lighter note, the thing he said his men would kill fir? The peaches and pound cake in the old C rats.

The P38? Yeah, I still got mine, too. The John Wayne Bar was a hard chocolate disk about the size of a small mason jar lid.

And, owing to the fact that you never really know what you’re going to get in your woodland elimination, a “Single use” may not even be that. Bring a roll, but pack it away from your hooks.

I’m not losing my mind over the gift selection, but I have a friend who swears by their “Firehose pants” and their skivvies are absolutely top notch, gotta say.

Not exactly the most sophisticated of jokes, I understand. The soap is probably from Duke Cannon-SUPER manly. Pretty nice, but no way I’m taking a shower in a tactical situation.
