Outdoor Retailer Magazine / October 2021
Dakota Grizzly Bowie Shirt
Based in St. Louis and founded in 2008, Dakota Grizzly offers all of their styles, like the pictured Bowie Shirt, from S to 3XL. The brand started at 2XL but bumped to 3XL three seasons ago in response to customer and retailer feedback.
While outdoor brands have had extended their size runs for years, more and more are seeking to be inclusive when it comes to fit. Here are some of the best examples from the floor at Outdoor Retailer Summer 2021.
