Hello, Duluth folks. I am a huuuuuge fan and have purchased scores of your items, including two pairs of overalls. They are, of course, wonderfully functional in many ways, but like every other pair of overalls in the history of MANkind, they fail women in a fundamental way.
I speak, of course, of the pain-in-the-tuchus of peeing while dressed in overalls.
To pee, one must unfasten one side of the overalls and push them down to one’s knees, being careful not to dunk the free strap into the toilet and preferably not letting it rest on the floor either. There’s an extra amount of rearranging one’s shirt, finding the free hanging strap, and getting fastened back in. And this is to say nothing of when one is wearing layers and must take off, for example, one’s winter coat in order to pee in an outhouse, which is brrrrrrr and yuck in equal measure.
There are devices in the world to help women pee while standing up - basically, funnels to cover the crotch and direct the flow away from the body. Could the lovely Duluth designers and engineers please work on integrating such a device into women’s overalls? A little waterproof pocket with a bit of rubber tubing, easy to detach (for rinsing at a more opportune time) and to fold away when not in use. Oh, and a flap at the crotch to unzip/snap, or the zipper that can start at the top or bottom of the torso. I promise you, we would love it so, so much.
Colleen Campbell, faithful but yearning customer
