Since 2005, DRI DUCK has been providing well crafted, superior quality work jackets and shirts designed to be rugged and durable, with purpose in every stitch. The touch and feel difference in DRI DUCK apparel is immediate, distinct and unmatched. Now, DRI DUCK brings performance apparel to the work wear market with DDX, or DRI DUCK Extreme, a new Lifewear collection designed for work or play in the great outdoors. The core of the DDX line is comprised of an impressive array of innovative and next generation technologies that really perform:

Coming in the Spring of 2009, DDX will offer a line of products featuring the revolutionary 3XDRY® technology. It marries two technologies into one textile: on the outside the textile is finished with a water-repellant treatment, where the inside services the role of perspiration absorption.  The end result is a 100% cotton fabric that repels water, dirt and stains on the outside and provides moisture absorption for quick evaporation on the inside. The “feelgood technology” fabric provides triple function: 1) dry on the outside, 2) dry on the inside and 3) dry in a flash.

Nano-Fleece is the newest member in the DDX collection. It features an anti static finish that not only repels lint, dust, pet hair and most important – static cling, but it’s also light, soft and comfortable, ideal for layering, and perfect for any activity in a range of cool weather climates, protecting you against whatever Mother Nature may throw your way.

Mark your calendar for Fall 2009, and the introduction of WindBrake. This 100% polyester fleece provides windblocking technology through the fabric innovators at DRI DUCK via an ultra dense, soft-shell microfleece jacket.

If you’re looking for waterproof protection with built-in mobility, look no further than DRI DUCK’s waterproof washed cotton canvas jackets in the Storm and Cyclone styles, giving you the means to take on the elements without compromise. The two-layer construction combines 12-ounce cotton canvas boulder cloth with DRI DUCK’s special membrane film for a waterproof finish, and superior, styled craftsmanship you simply won’t find anywhere else.

Hard core performance meets soft shell comfort in DRI DUCK’s waterproof Agility and Endurance jackets. These soft shells feature 3-layer bonded construction that combines a four-way stretch polyester fabric with Teflon® coating and a soft microfleece interior for superior waterproof dependability. 

For the ultimate in waterproof technology, DRI DUCK gives you the Latitude – a durable nylon faille shell backed with a fully waterproof membrane and soft breathable mesh body lining. DRI DUCK gives all you all the latitude you need to keep out the wind and rain and keep in the comfort.

The world today demands a lot from people. Fortunately for you, the DRI DUCK DDX performance collection keeps pace. Every item in the line is carefully designed to provide active, adventurous and busy customers with clothing options that exceed the demand for comfort, value and reliability. Plus, the DRI DUCK team still found room in each piece for style to ensure you look and feel good in DDX well into the future.

This is exactly the kind of product innovation that is continuously underfoot in DRI DUCK’s Overland Park, Kansas headquarters. The active life wear and work wear apparel company offers next generation fabrication and technology when it comes to product design and garment features. The quality craftsmanship is obvious and notably every stitch has a purpose.

Flexible. Durable. Style. It’s the DDX performance collection. We invite you to be impressed. Learn more at driducktraders.com.
