Yep, what the tag said from Duck Head. Price point same as Vineyard Vines chinos.

That was more typical for me as well, it seemed. I don't think Hilfiger even had polos at that point. Or at least they weren't wide-spread. I may have rocked a button up or two, from them back then, though.

Duck Head has pretty much been crap since they were bought by Goody's (and whoever has bought them since they filed Chapter 11) a decade ago.

I loved Duck Head 20 years ago...Now, they are pretty much Walmart quality crap.

I wouldn't pay $135 for duckhead if Jesus himself wore the pants.

One pair. Quality is not cheap. The pair I got, I would put up with the Vineyard Vine pants that I have. Seems they are stepping up their game. If you have a Stiein Mart, you will find them there.

The brand name has been bought and sold a bunch of times. I use to get the polo shirts for around $30. Now they are $95.

Duckhead painters pants where the shite late 70's early 80's. 10 or 12 bucks a copy and you could dye them any color.

The Eastland one eye boat shoes. These were worn by me back in that time. Damn, those frickers would cause major contact dermatitis when the got soaked in the rain.

Who knows if it is the same as the current Duck Head.

It's a smart ploy. Someone bought the brand on the cheap, then looks to have gone in with frat stores (Onward Reserve, Kinnucans) to promote the brand.
