fraid not! are we talking the quackquackers or something else?!

[ringring]

I think the 'duck' is referencing the cotton duck (canvas) fabric that was used in workpants that were a pre-cursor to denim jeans. One of the Duck Digger styles is available in canvas (very nice too).

So basically it's a sub-line of Warehouse, specialising in repros of early jeans-style workpants. The 1900 style is a repro of the 'Boss of the Road' (Levi's rival brand) 'waist overalls' - see PaulT's excellent book...

[docdoom]

ahh..nicely

[berent]

Thanks for the info RingRing.

Just ordered Paul T's new book this week, really looking forward to recieve it.

ring.. was the canvas called duck because they used to produce the weave it in such a way that it was a light waterproof like a duck?! (or treat it after)..

?!

[docdoom]

There are some real nice lvc duck repos, pretty early, 1876 or something. Brown tough canvasy stuff, cinch, suspender buttons i think too, and a label sans horses.

Could be, especially as duck was widely used in the maritime industry for sailcloth, sailors trousers, hammocks, bags, boat covers etc.

Otherwise, the other popular theory is that it comes from the dutch word for cloth "doek". The etymology of jeans related words is a pretty interesting study.
