Filson was established in Seattle, Washington in 1897 to supply clothing
for the Alaska gold rush. As their place in the market they chose to supply
the best quality available, and did so successfully. From the prospectors and
miners their sales soon extended to the construction workers and loggers throughout
Alaska and the Pacific Northwest. Today Filson, recognized for its comfort, protection and durability, is acknowledged
as the finest outdoor clothing available, by both men and women throughout the
world. Filson's reputation for quality extends to their Rugged Twill Luggage
and accessories, living up to their motto "Might as Well Have the Best".
There are no secrets to Filson quality, just a simple dedication to using top
grade materials in functional designs, put together to last. Many of the fabrics
used are not available on the general market and must be loomed to Filson's
own specifications. From the pure Mackinaw Wool, through the Tin Cloth for rugged
wear and luggage, to the pure cotton Safari Cloth for summer weather use, the
Filson fabrics are outstanding. Filson's Cover Cloth continues
the Filson tradition of quality with a new and improved British waxed cotton
for outstanding wind and water protection in a light and comfortable fabric.
Most of the Filson clothing, hats, luggage and accessories we carry is made in the USA. The exceptions are their Canadian-made wool underwear, wool shirts, where production is being shifted to Mexico, and cotton shirts, where production is being shifted to China.
