Looks like a flat welt...can we get in a raised storm welt?

filson is old money rich!! my grandma got me one when i was younger it has pouches for rabbits. shame they arent made in the US anymore kinda like doc martin not being made in england

My fav hat . I need a black one 😊

Super COLD and not warm at all. Be sure to buy a size larger as you need to layer under this jacket even in mild temps. The cheap tee-shirt cotton lining filson uses is subpar. Waxed cotton is cold and clammy on your skin - even with the cheap lining. They missed an opportunity to make a fantastic jacket, had they used a light wool lining fabric. The upside is you will look good in this cold and expensive pseudo jacket.

I was on the fence about the Yearling boots, but see them in person I changed my mind. These are beautiful boots mate I'll tell you that.

With the Ross Anvil video - The synthetics are only in the comfort craftsman range. The classic leather sole shoes are still made the exact same way they always have been and to the same quality. Not ideal, but Ross anvil slammed all of RM boots when he just picked the one that’s meant to be comfortable like a sneaker, so naturally it’ll have some trade offs to make that happen.

wish it has interior pockets. would not cost much to add.

AMZWATCH watch are the best, I say this from experience.

I have the same jacket in both tan and black, really love them. Mine are both USA made as well, and found that a simple warm moleskin or cotton liner works great with these. Even a hoodie in colder months. Last time I checked Filson offers 5 colors now, lol. I still like a few things they make, but hit or miss these days. I do miss these days of free wax tins, but at least I have 2 on the shelf still. Looks great!

The practical reason for the difference between a logger and a dogger is weight, a logger heel removes only 12-1oz might per boot but makes a difference as they’re designed for different terrains. Logger for waliking inclines, ascents and uneven ground, dogger for walking flat ground and riding (horses).

I have the 114060 in my collection bought it 2019 from AD, unbelievable sub with out the cyclops wart pure class 🔥

Man oh man…those are Awesome..!! Great choice, Sir…

Does “American Made” mean anything to people outside the United States?

Don't say that rolex increases in value cos millions of people lost lots of money when the watch market collapsed🙊 And even before; rolex didn't really increased in value (maybe only the daytonas or submariners) ; the rest they keep up with the inflation.

Both of those boots look great. I love the patina on the leathers.

Sorry you said you sold the Original bracelete! Well it looks undressed to me it doesn't look like a Speedy!😢 mine is from 1998 cal. 861 /1861 T swiss made T and is well dressed !😂

Wow those are sharp...I really like the full brown rougout.

Last of the classically sized 40 mm subs before they went to 41 mm

I’ve owned this watch. It was one of my favorites. I loved it. Unfortunately it was tied to some bad memories in my life. I can’t own it anymore because it reminds me of those bad times.

Been waiting nearly 2 years at my AD for one (UK). Really frustrating to see so many on the grey market from flippers

Amazing watch !

bought mine in 2015 just before the watch hype really took off and got 20% off from a dept store using staff discount.

I own the same, it’s the best model IMO. I enjoy wearing it every single day.

I own lots of Filson products. I recommend sticking with the staples like the tin cloth and mackinaw wool. Regardless of price they’re about the best you’ll find regarding quality. But I’d steer clear of any of the man made synthetic textiles they offer. In that space you’re definitely buying the name. I wear out a tin cloth vest about every three years. I send it back to have it repaired and they end up sending me a new one free of cost. But I use these clothes as tools. Buy once, cry once. But, if you’re buying for fashion (something I really don’t understand) you’d probably do better with something else. It takes a lot of time to wear these garments in. Once worn in they’ll contour to your body and your movements. It’s really quite something. I can tell you haven’t done much in your jacket as there’s no permanent wear marks, folds, so it’s basically brand new. My guess is if you continue using it how you’re using it now you’ll likely be able to pass it down to your grandchildren.

Im hoping to get my hands on a Ship John Will Jacket. They said they'll be taking orders end of this year or beginning of 2025. I have 6 Carhartt Jackets. Getting another one in a couple weeks. I guess you can say I have a work jacket addiction. I think I need Help.

I love my Ian Harold boots. Understand they are similar.

I just ordered one. I own a good bit of Filson gear. Most of my stuff is aged and US made. I needed a shorter tin cloth cruiser to wear with a tool belt this fall. I haven’t received it yet but I guess we’ll see on the quality. I own a wool lined tin vest, tin cruiser, tin work vest, two wool vests, one wool cruiser, merino wool base layers (not US made), wild foul hat, insulated cap, bush hat, wool liner jacket. Love all of it. My tin cruiser jacket and tin work vest are my go-to items for working outside. Both have a beautiful patina.

Have you checked out Wootten in Ballarat? I think they will be up your alley.

I think your liking the White’s 4811 last. I love Nicks boots but the White’s 4811 is the most comfortable last I have ever worn.

Well said mate

With regards to brands using synthetics materials; it's utter skin-flint tight-fisted ness. These manufacturers have no problem compromising the quality of their products in areas that are difficult for a lay-person to notice, whilst gouging the price of said boots by several hundred dollars. I'd been wearing a 20 year old pair of Yearlings that my old man gave me out of his wardrobe, and I wanted another pair of crafters, but in a different colour, to compliment them. I was hugely disappointed with the new pair; they don't feel as tough or as robust, plus the leather was thinner and wore quicker than you'd have expected. This is something I've began to notice amongst all clothing brands nowadays, even staple robust workwear (like Carharrt or Filson) just feel flimsy and cheap compared to older items. Thank god for Japanese selvage denim, which seems to be the only clothing area nowadays focussed on maintaining quality.

Aren’t these women’s boots? Also yearling is a year old cow. So yearling kangaroo leather would be some sort of freak baby kangaroo cow hybrid haha. I think they do either yearling or kangaroo, not yearling kangaroo.

They look really good

They still use the RapidE machine to stitch these. The only part that is hand sewn is the thin welt strip piece to the vamp. After that, they stitch the two lines via a machine. You can even see this done on White’s build videos. People have a misconception that the sole is stitched on by hand, when they buy the “hand sewn welt” models.

Great video mate. The Filson Cruisers are my favourite jacket bar none. I originally bought the red and black check Mackinaw new from Filson about 15 years ago, fell in love, and then started searching for them on the second hand market. So far I have collected the cream and black check Mackinaw, plain black Mackinaw, and plane grey Mackinaw; and a canvas double lined cruiser in olive.....plus a tin cloth vest lined in the red check. Mine are all the Alaska cut and are all made in USA. They are such practical and comfortable garments that can be dressed up or down that I don't have much need for anything else. The search continues!

Great review. I too am a fan of heritage wear. Have a pair of White's Bounty Hunter/Rancher on the 55 last and the uppers look very similar to your smokejumpers. Sole is less lugged with a square heal. Much easier to wear daily than the Wesco Jobmasters that I have (similar to the smokejumper). Regards

What watch are you wearing?

The yellow color is quite unique and I doubt I have seen one like this before. Thanks for the update!

❤

I have a hat pretty much just like yours, only mine doesn't have the fancy lining. I have the Khaki canvas safari sun hat by Panama Jack. That may not compare to yours in the way it's made, but by all means, my hat was not a cheap hat. ($49 US).

Does it still smell?

Thinking of getting this with the zipper. But I have long arms and a lot of jackets don’t fit me. what’s your jacket size? I’m a 42L Height weight?

This is the jacket Rip Wheeler wears on Yelllowstone but in black.

I love this hat... I own one in black and silver. It's a great cross over.

Thanks a lot for the review mate, really helpful regarding the sizing...! Enjoy them and thanks once again for detailed review.

Thanks a lot mate, really instructive review as I'm going to buy a Builder Pro in Cuter Choice also and was wondering walnut version what is looking like...! Really useful review, thanks...!

Awesome review mate big love from Brisbane 😊😊😊

I absolutely love the look of the black wax flesh, very classy, am thinking about ordering the brown wax flesh

Can you do a review on your craftmen boots mate Thanks!

The bug out is currently currently their number one selling pattern. The 940 is their best selling pattern of all time. As far as Spyderco, I believe the paramilitary is their best seller
