Duluth Pack Debuts New Product that is Causing Quite a Stir Online

Duluth Pack has unveiled a new satchel to their product line and it is causing quite a bit of conversation on social media. The post on Duluth Pack's Facebook page (seen below) has created a heated discussion that has fans of the popular local retailer taking sides, either expressing excitement or disappointment in the new product.

Strong opinions on both sides have led to a heated debate in the comments section of this post, with some applauding the company for the new product offering while others threaten to never purchase anything from the retailer again as a result of the item. Here are some of the comments from the conversation on their Facebook post:

• Patrick H- "Do people not understand there are literally thousands of different conceal carry products out there? You walk past people every day who carry and you don’t even know it. Why is this product any worst then the thousands of other conceal carry products?"
• Ian D-  "I worked for Duluth Pack and they have multiple conceal and carry bags that they have sold for some time.
  This is nothing new people."
• Greg G.- "Thanks to my friends at Duluth Pack for listing to the needs of your consumers. Totally understand it's not a bag for everyone. Please continue the great work!!"
• Patrick H.- "Do people not understand there are literally thousands of different conceal carry products out there? You walk past people every day who carry and you don’t even know it. Why is this product any worst then the thousands of other conceal carry products?"
• Taylor B-" Awesome product! Finally something stylish and functional!"

• Laura A.- "I love Duluth packs. I own several. This photo is HIGHLY disturbing. I will not be purchasing again."
• Margaret P.- "Ok. You've lost me as a customer. There are, of course, others who will think concealing a hand gun in public is a fantastic idea who will continue to purchase your products."
• Peter F.- "This photo is so disturbing and disappointing! As an educator I do NOT need students seeing this pack. I’ve always been a supporter of Duluth Pack. I don’t care about your choice to carry and conceal, however I don’t need this pack in my school."
• Leita W.- "I've always admired your products; they are attractive and well-made. However, this photo in my inbox this morning caused me to unsubscribe from your email alerts. You've lost this customer."
• Jacqui G.- "This does NOT represent the typical person who buys and uses your product...Why would you lower your standards ??"
