Hello Strongmen, Strongwomen, and Duck Walk enthusiasts!

It has come to our attention that one of our Canada Post shipments with a Duck Walk shirt as gone permanently astray. Also, we have had a lot of folks ask if they could still get one!

So! To make sure they get theirs, and anyone still interested can get one as well, we are doing a limited run of the Strengthfest Duck Walk shirt! Please message us with your desire ASAP as we will likely place the order on August 1st.

We can arrange shipping & handling, hand delivery, or pick up, on an individual basis.
