Bought it because I've had business dealings with them for decades and their products always sold well. Actually they don't sell that well in recent years. LOL!

Some years ago I made a list for my family of about 17 criteria I use for for stock selection. Originally it was about 14-15 rules and I added a few more with time. The list boils down to this: Buy Blue Chips, never buy tips or cutting edge tech, and don't trade often. Buffett rules generally. Produced better than S&P 500 performance for me for years, and my portfolio should survive tough times when they arrive.
Just scanned the 17 and neither of your two "perpetual start ups" passed more than one or two of the 17 tests. No way would I buy junk like that.
Heck, DLTH fails because it's too small, too young and doesn't pay a regular dividend. DLTH is also a retailer but that's not one of my 17 written rules. Interesting how almost all scams fail the simple dividend test!

IHUB's had tons of swing trading boards. Virtually all died out quickly.
As for DLTH, I decided years ago to avoid anything connected with retailing, even online and catalog. That was a profitable decision. Should have sold my Walgreens as part of that thinking. On the plus side, there's a feeling that Christmas selling may be good this year, and a belief that some retailing will survive, perhaps thrive.

Long lasting clothing is pricey. He bought a few $90 pair of pants, waterproof jacket, shirts, flannels, socks, underwear, belt. My brother is not afraid to spend money. He's the ideal customer. Lots of discretionary income and working in an environment that utilizes the benefits of the clothing fully. Yesterday he told me that he ordered more items online on Saturday.
Duluth seems to put a lot of thought into their goods. Outside pockets on jackets that have grommeted portals inside so your headphones can go through to the inside, brilliant. On the heavy duty work pants, when you flip the side pocket flaps up they hold themselves straight up until you flip it down. They have a very straightforward system to tell you exactly what temperature items are ideal for. And everything is comfortable and flexible.
