Unfailing Goods Since 1897 · Founded 1897 · Seattle, USA

How to Spot Authentic Vintage Filson
Reproductions and mislabeled pieces are common. These are the markers that separate genuine vintage Filson from fakes and modern items:
- 'Made in Seattle, USA' label
- Tin cloth should be properly waxed
- Solid brass hardware on bags and jackets
- Double-needle stitching throughout
Vintage Filson Sizing
Filson sizing varies by line: Mackinaw runs very large (size down 2), while 'Seattle Fit' pieces are more modern. Tin cloth jackets should allow room for wool layers underneath.
