About AKHG
AKHG is the outdoor clothing brand of Duluth Holdings, sold beside Duluth Trading workwear through the same website and stores. The company's annual reports called it the Alaskan Hardgear sub-brand until fiscal 2021 and AKHG from fiscal 2022, and both names are still among the trademarks it lists as important. Duluth has said it wants AKHG to hold a position of its own, distinct from the main brand, for outdoor recreation.
