It's been on soft release in a few stores the past month.

Duxback. I always wondered what became of them. When I was a kid I had an old Jones style cap I wore hunting everywhere that was made by Duxback. It was camo but also had a flap on top where you pull forward and it would show hunter orange.

I need to go back to the house and see if that has been thrown out. When was last time you saw someone wearing a Jones style cap.

All of the waxed canvas products are made here in the USA. I do believe some of the rubberized bags and stuff are made overseas.

Called Mack’s yesterday asking about the Jones style cap but it doesn’t sound like it has made it into production yet. The hat with the brim is sold out with no date back order date. Glad to see it has been an apparent success. Grew up wearing Duxbak and miss their products.

Filson makes some good stuff as well. I have a Packer that have been using for 20 years and it looks like the day I got it all those years ago. Sadly they don't even make it like mine now anymore. The interior headband on mine is made of leather and it fits and molds to your head perfectly. After about 2 or 3 minutes I forget am wearing a hat it is so comfortable. Sadly the new ones use a cotton headband and I don't think are as good.

Luckily I don't need another waxed brim hat, but if I did would sure like the Duxbuck one, that looks pretty cool. Hope I can find my old Jones style cap again.

They had trouble getting the Jones Caps to come out right. They're tough to pattern, my friend who made my new ones had a bear of a time getting them perfected. I've actually given the owner of Duxbak his name so maybe they'll get them straightened out soon.

More products to come, it's just been slow going with their production. They actually had to break down and actually buy a complete factory to finally get it all done.
