Unreal repair job

It looks like they dismantled what was left of my bag, inserted new fabric, kept repairing it as they reassembled. Really amazing work. All under warranty including 2-way shipping. Love it!

Mackinaw Anorak Sizing & Use Case

For those with a Mackinaw anorak:

  1. What do you recommend for sizing? I’m 6-1, 160. Have heard both small and medium may work.

  2. For those that have one, do you wear anything underneath or just a t-shirt and that keeps you fine? We don’t have harsh winters (gets down to like 30-40), so just trying to judge the best use case. Thanks!

Where to buy reputable second hand clothing?

Looking to buy a Mackinaw Anorak, they’re sold out online. Where do you all get your used/second hand items? Not sure about eBay with the risk for potential scams. But could be wrong!

Thanks in advance!

After 3 years daily use. Holes!? What do?

3 years daily use. Not abused really. Small holes forming in higher friction points. A bit disappointed. Is there anything I can do to repair?

EDIT: Sending to Filson for repairs. Thanks everyone!

My Filson Style Tin Cloth Jacket from 1997

Got a great deal on this jacket from eBay almost a year ago. It’s dated July 1997 and is the Style 64 Tin Cloth Jacket. I absolutely love the cut. It fits me perfectly, and the pockets are huge. I’m looking forward to many years of use from this thing.

My great RUGGED TWILL MEDIUM DUFFLE BAG in action

What do we think?

Greetings all!

I was scrolling on Facebook marketplace and found this sick large twill rucksack. I’m going to meet with the guy tomorrow after talking him down from his asking price of 475 to 400. What do we think? The only thing I’m concerned about is the tag. Why do it cut off and what are the XXs on there. All information is welcomed, thanks in advance! (All pictures are from the Facebook marketplace listing)

Cheers!

Update: I got the bag! It’s super nice and heavy and feels very premium and durable. Only question I have no is where is the white care tag? Mine does not appear to have one on the inside main compartment or the pockets. Is that an issue? Thank you all for your contributions!

Help identifying a garment bag.

Hello!

I was hoping to get the communities help identifying an older garment bag I received as a gift. Other than the interior Filson tag, I can’t find any other tag information inside the bag. The zippers are stamped “Talon” if that helps at all. Any information you all have would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers!

Found at thrift store for $35 — total newbie, need help identifying this CC Filson Co hunting jacket

Hey r/Filson — picked this up at Buffalo Exchange in Brooklyn for $35 and I know basically nothing about vintage Filson. Hoping you can tell me what I actually have here.

Here’s some notes that may not be obvious from the photos:

The faded blue content tag that’s almost completely worn blank you can barely make out “100% cotton” in just the right light.
The bellows pockets have to additional embossed snaps on the interior.
There’s a total of twelve pockets with two interior. The one on the interior right seems like it may be for padding to help cushion against the rifle stock.

The fade on it is really nice. I looked at it in the sunlight and it has an almost shimmer to it

I’d love to know the model name, approximate era, and what it’s actually worth. Happy to take more photos of any detail that would help. Thanks in advance.

Bug out bag

Put this bag through hell and it keeps asking for more. Been all over the world with me and has never let me down. Can’t ask for more.

New (to me) jacket too stiff?

Hello

I just recently acquired a double logger, which I’ve been looking for for ages. I love the jacket but it arrived having clearly been worn, yet stiff enough to stand up on its own. I’ve been wearing it when the weather isn’t too hot so I can break it in, but I’m not making much progress and wondering if this is normal. One potential cause I read online is that this might be caused by too much wax?

Thanks for any advice/guidance!

First Mackinaw

Finally pulled the trigger on my first Filson heirloom piece after having gotten various Jac Shirts, sweaters and Alaskan guides over the past couple of years.

Was really torn on color / size, it’s a bit awkward with returns being in the UK. I’m 6”1 and 88kg / 194lbs, 41” chest and went with medium. I reckon I could get away with small but really like the flexibility. There’s room for layers but I don’t feel like i’m drowning in it.

Man this thing is comfy. Hard to describe but it’s awesome. Looking forward to the right weather for it 😅

The cruiser never really did much for me at first but the further down the Filson rabbit hole I fell, the more I began to appreciate it before falling in love with it.

FILSON SHORT LINED CRUISER TALLA L

Me compre después de años de espera la chaqueta, me probé en la tienda una talla M pero la sentía muy apretada como para usar un sweater abajo, me quede con la L (mido 1,76m y peso 85kg) ya que al abotonarla no me quedaba apretada y me permitía mover libremente los brazos, el tema son las mangas, me cubren la mitad de la mano y estuve viendo que con el tiempo se "encogen", quería saber en su experiencia cuanto aprox. se encoge y si la chaqueta en si también cambia de tamaño.

Gracias.

Sell me the 24h briefcase, I do not understand the format

Hello,

So I have a have a backpack, which carries my EDC and my laptop

I have a weekender style bag made of leather which is the same format as the Filson Duffle.

I also have a satchel which carries my EDC when I don't need a laptop

But I'm not sure I understand the briefcase format.

I mean, for me, it basically looks like one of those black nylon laptop bag which does not want to look like a laptop bag. Also, it looks a bit awkward to carry. I imagine something as heavy as a backpack with only a cross body strap that pressure your chest while being bigger than a satchel and therefore bumping into your legs and hip at each step.

I obviously developed a false idea, but I would love to hear your experience and what I am missing.

Thank you
