The iconic outdoor brand continues its longstanding dedication to conservation with a new collection with Ducks Unlimited.

Founded in 1937, Ducks Unlimited is one of the longest-standing wildlife conservation organizations in the country. It has conserved and rehabilitated over 14 million acres of waterfowl habitat in the past 83 years. And they boast a membership of over 600,00 hunters and non-hunters alike.

This partnership has produced 10 items that range from a $15 retro Ducks Unlimited patch to a $395 blanket. It’s worth noting that half of the items are under $50. Fortunately, this puts the collection in the price range of most folks.

“Ducks Unlimited and Filson are both iconic brands with rich histories, so it only seemed fitting for us to align to provide DU members and supporters a unique, co-branded line of merchandise,” said DU CEO Adam Putnam.

“The Filson brand is known for its quality, and we know our members will appreciate the craftsmanship of each piece. We appreciate the hard work and effort that’s been put into this partnership, and we look forward to a long relationship with the Filson team.”
