Filson from Seattle are one of the most popular outdoor clothing manufacturers in America. Some of the products, the Mackinaw for instance, have been in production for over a century. Contrary to other manufacturers Filson tries to avoid synthetic fabrics and the company seems to have an aversion against anything that looks and feels like those modern, colourful hiking jackets. Everything made by Filson is crafted from premium virgin wool, heavy weight waxed canvas or durable bridle leather. 

Sure, Filson products are not cheap but they are worth every penny because they are meant to last a lifetime. Unlike those modern outdoor products they also become more beautiful with age and wear. Imagine yourself saying that about your average polyester raincoat…
