(Duluth), a leading workwear and lifestyle brand known for durable apparel and problem-solving designs, has released its new <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=dTWsunKn3aDK-evq1w4FZdPmjdxMCrJFuwViLcgI8LZgKXh9RVeMWpAwdsmyuh49k_y89cVtQovfC1so97cewReGCNZshid8HsAzT0rVWurjXF1YIcLQeMZnMu1v1Iaw" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="">BBQ Collection</a>, a line of shirts, shorts, aprons and matching family styles designed for the realities of outdoor cooking and backyard entertaining. As Americans continue investing in outdoor kitchens, pellet smokers, flat-top griddles and pizza ovens, outdoor cooking has shifted from a seasonal pastime into a growing lifestyle category. In the latest <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=v_F4nzix_n9xJ6Mke2jBXbqx4r3XIDfpY-dV-yzRCpv26EF4fBa1DsJ825mXCbDbm-28_BxYososU2TUMbTqE1fBBPy8dJp1Fr1Ju_XG5QkzyFrzhzDhQS9kQZ836ID3zNQv277c1mPoXrMNemHu1LMIL2kfzvaiM8XDShG5SGKkGggM01Tn8Hi9zwLNsg0StzJoE4_FVRXLYTHoef2anQ==" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="">State of the Barbeque Industry Report</a> from the Hearth, Patio and Barbecue Association (HPBA), seven in 10 U.S. households own a grill or smoker, and 70% of owners plan to cook outdoors as part of their Fourth of July celebrations. “Outdoor cooking is a major American lifestyle trend, and we believe our customers deserve good-looking, functional clothing that can handle the long days of backyard entertaining,” said Ricker Schlecht, SVP of Product Development at Duluth Trading. “The right gear allows time to be focused on family, friends and neighbors, instead of fussing over sweat, spills and discomfort.” To support the growing numbers of grill masters and backyard hosts, Duluth Trading has designed a collection of BBQ apparel and aprons to handle heat, smoke, sweat, and constant movement between cooking and entertaining. Functional Clothing for the Modern Grill Master Low-and-slow smoking sessions can require up to 12 hours of active cooking, while backyard hosts often spend entire afternoons moving between food prep, grilling and entertaining guests. Long hours around radiant heat requires clothing that prioritizes breathability, mobility and comfort. Duluth Trading’s BBQ Collection blends workwear-inspired utility features, lightweight materials and summer-ready style to help outdoor chefs stay comfortable while cooking and hosting. Designed for maximum comfort, the BBQ Shirt and BBQ Shorts can be worn separately or styled together. Both feature lightweight cotton materials and functional features, resulting in outfits that support breathability, movement and all-day wear. <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=9Aui2wdbimLZNdg-rK0tziBikrst8Jijgd_PBid6w5wqj8FPJvVMefWM6jvpGAGUakBi0ooQaI5b-8L4LSLNDtnizzlLffdNPm4Tt2Z-DeAHEEHopG3oIYCA7QmAIqzGwiw-f3uY_jb_Gp_LiKPb7bgc3FomBAPLj-AJ9FUYLn_-33XsY396a99NvhW2nfcb" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="">BBQ Short Sleeve Shirt</a> <ul type="disc"><li>Lightweight 100% cotton construction to keep cool when close to flames</li><li>Reach Gussets® provide unrestricted movement while prepping, grilling and serving</li><li>Straight hem with cooling side vents</li><li>Oversized buttons for easier grip</li><li>Available in Standard, Relaxed and Slim fits, Sizes Small to 3XL</li><li>Rotating seasonal patterns and collaborations, with current options including: <ul type="circle"><li>White Firecracker, a patriotic red, white and blue pattern</li><li>Route 66 Roadtrip, celebrating the historic highway’s centennial</li><li>Hawaiian Bags Tourney, a playful take on the classic Aloha shirt </li></ul> </li></ul> <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=9Aui2wdbimLZNdg-rK0tzmo8aA-_oZdwxtrqdO6U72vRNDOWDad09u_Q6UMx-qnFa_CuUaoBOsSrqAqmlg3C5zc9NB4KDo41cYbk2iujNXZgDHSXJhKCKgGitaGfnE1nr3sSn6JSyky9e0RRLRyig32-UE81TSWtNi6ngLvuZYE=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="">BBQ Shorts</a> <ul type="disc"><li>Lightweight cotton design with pull-on styling</li><li>Elastic waistband and drawcord provide comfort throughout long cookouts</li><li>Crouch Gusset® allows for easy squatting, bending and stretching</li><li>Five-pocket design, including a dedicated canned beverage pocket</li><li>Available in 9-inch or 7-inch inseams, Sizes Medium to 2XL </li></ul> A quality apron is one of the most important pieces of grilling gear, protecting against sauce splashes, hot spatters and smoke residue.

Choosing the Right Gear for Grilling What should I wear for maximum comfort and protection when grilling? When cooking outdoors, clothing should prioritize heat management, mobility, stain resistance and sun protection. Lightweight, breathable fabrics with venting features help you keep cool when exposed to radiant heat from grills and smokers. Clothing designed for stretch and mobility allows cooks to move comfortably between prep stations, grills and guests. Always use a quality apron to protect your clothing from sauce splashes, hot spatters and smoke residue. What are the best fabrics for outdoor cooking? The best grilling apparel balances comfort, durability and breathability. Lightweight cotton remains a popular choice because it promotes airflow and remains comfortable during long cooking sessions. Moisture-wicking performance fabrics, like those used in Duluth Trading’s <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=XErHmuXApAV4ISwKoFLPXi9wwsmTpAKzZad5drz87J1icTN9GSaubAaVYdz36gMIOWQINtpIQrGGm6hrCSlnLTq7WKAcrh5ztj18GLQAH9cVOWZArMVdWp_mSfy7e9ckgLq-aO6RSTfCza8AajxPsg==" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="">Dry on the Fly® Collection</a>, can also help manage sweat in hot weather. How do I avoid overheating while working on the grill? You can't eliminate the heat, but you can dress for it. Look for clothing in lightweight cotton or moisture-wicking fabrics to promote breathability. Features like side vents also provide additional airflow.
