Dakota Grizzly Announces Fall 2022 Collection Outdoor Retailer + Snow

Retailer Commitments Stronger than ever, halting online sales for the season

DKOTA Grizzly, a distinctly crafted Midwestern men’s lifestyle apparel brand, announces its Fall ’22 line and clean new brand look. DAKOTA Grizzly opened its Fall 2022 line for pre-bookings earlier than ever with 17 new styles and fabrics inviting its retailers to ‘Discover DKOTA’.

The St.Louis based Midwest Maker continues its steady growth with its core base of independent retailers, as it delivered over 99% of Fall 2021 pre-bookings and was even able to fill many in-season reorders.

“Our retailer’s stores were full and sell-throughs were strong,” said Rob Rosenblum, DKOTA Partner and Chief Brand Officer. “ To make this happen, we made the unprecedented decision to shut down e-commerce sales entirely during the supply chain crisis and we never looked back.” 

It proved to be a great decision, because of the strong ‘21 sales, prebooks for 2022 are up significantly.

Ironically, DKOTA has had in place for 5 years a pioneering revenue sharing program whereby retailers share in e-commerce sales. “Normally at this time of year we would be sending store checks as part of our unique RSVP program,” Rosenblum explained, “we hope to resume the program next season if conditions ease.”

The Fall 21 line was the first to feature the fresh DKOTA Grizzly wordmark reiterated in the double K chevron. “Our customers had been referring to us using the DKOTA shorthand for years, and the pronunciation led to the trademarked spelling. There is something bold and expansive about the name DKOTA that goes beyond the proud independence of the iconic Grizzly.”

With this contemporary new icon come bold, rich colors, magnetic patterns and plaids, new mid layers, deep pile fleece and silky brushed knit weaves. Just as the name has gotten bolder, so too has the collection for Fall 22, you will see strong color executions in our outwear jackets, shirt jackets and flannels for 2022. Intense colors of maize, rich moss and vibrational plaids, Join us for a tour of some of our top picks for Fall 2022.
