Reviews of clothing, boots, and accessories for men, along with style advice and life philosophy. I've been working with my hands for my entire life as a mechanic, tow truck driver, and eventually a licensed electrician. Being a blue collar guy, I look for certain elements in a product: is it durable? Is it high-quality? Will it perform well over its service life? Whether boots, pants, jackets, or tools I believe it's best to buy once and cry once by getting the best you can afford. With so many options these days, choosing the best product can become a difficult decision, but that's where I come in. Helping you stay stylish, rugged, and handsome.
I don't care where it's made as long as it's made well and allows you to own less and own better.

I love these annual Filson catalog reviews - keep doing them

[@ghettomist1575]

As a photography geek, the photos in that catalog are BEAUTIFUL. They could just make a photo book and I would buy it.

[@DJPTEXAS]

Where are they getting these prices from ? Not like the old Filson, expensive but not crazy like this.......

[@jacobradden]

When I got into American made clothing approximately two years ago.. Filson is obviously the first brand that pops up on most people searches. I'm so glad I didn't fall into their trap of riding on Heritage rather than true American made clothing.

[@503punxoioioi9]

Doesn't matter where stuff is made. Patriotism is brainwashing.

[@JustSamples]

Filson's trap? or are you referring to someone else

[@homesteadlife6854]

@@JustSamples filsons trap. Most of their clothing is made overseas

[@bfettrules1239]

Filson used to be great. They’ve really hit the skids the last few years with making most of their stuff overseas. Check out weatherwool. They’re more expensive but the quality can’t be touched.

[@messerwilliam]

Also have a love , hate relationship with Filson but I buy Filson for alot of reasons. But you never mention Filson life time warranty, most of their products 10, 20, 30 years from now as they wear out can be replaced or repaired. Remember buy once cry once. Buy better own less. I would like to here more about life time warranty in your reviews. I try to buy clothing I will never have to buy again. For example I awn 7 pairs of darn tough Vermont socks . I will never have to buy another pair Love the channel and have a happy holiday to you and your family

[@Datblonddood]

Yeessss I was so hoping you'd do this again! I asked for a catalog this year but they never sent one.

[@renangaidheal1320]

Filson has dropped the Tin Cloth Double Logger. Darn shame. But this is emblematic of their turn to fashion rather than outdoorsman workwear.

[@CowboyRibeye]

So many of the alternate brands to filson have sizing for legitimately nobody over 6 feet tall or 220 pounds. So much money to be made with the thicc boys

[@BillyJeans1993]

The Filson Anchorage Work Pant is an awesome pant if anyone wants a quality chino. The zipper, button and strap the light wax coating that is on them makes them an awesome Warehouse/ Office pant

[@uncannyfox]

Not gonna lie, I was kinda hoping for a more upbeat video. Haha

[@Saw_Squatch]

You should absolutely check out Frost River for some of the best waxed canvas gear on the planet, made right in Duluth MN ( they absolutely bury Duluth Pack in quality) they have a beautiful free catalog you can order online and a catalog video would make a phenomenal introduction to the brand for a lot of people

[@Saw_Squatch]

Hackberry also always has a great catalog

[@cordovanhobbyist895]

20:19 Hey Carl. I don't know if you know, but when it comes to determining the warmth of a duck/goose down garment, you need to look for two things: (1) fill power and (2) down weight. Fill power tells how lofty the garment will become. Fill weight tells you how much insulation is in the garment. From experience, a jacket with 850+ fill power containing 6oz of fill weight can keep most people warm in the 20s or even teens with only a t-shirt underneath.

[@jaeff4]

I look forward to these catalog read throughs because they're jam packed with your unique experiences and insight. They've become an annual heritage clothing measuring stick for the industry as a whole. Thank you!

[@donnelson4140]

The Field Pants are great, though it seldom gets cold enough to need them here in South Dakota, but the heavy hard-finished wool gabardines they no longer make I wear pretty often as they’re dressier than jeans or any other trousers shy of a bespoke winter suit. Those wear like iron. Alas - discontinued. Edit: I really enjoy your catalog reviews! As a long-time Filsonite, it’s hard to keep my comments short.

[@BeautifuLakesStreamsBiologists]

My thick army surplus wool pants are too warm for western Oregon, but I am surprised to hear this about SD! There are only three colder places on this planet 1) The arctic 2) the Antarctic and 3) a well digger's a$$ on the dark side of the moon in the Klondike! ;) ( to wear them here I have to lay around in the snow to cool off enough ;) )

Great thing about Filson is the resale value. Filson holds its value like a classic car or something. And people do seek it out so it's easy to resell.

[@adamsmiths3016]

I was able to pick up two Filson blankets for 30 bucks each!!! I scored!!!

I thought getting a Mackinaw cruiser for $150 at the filson factory sale was a good deal but 2 blankets for $30 is insane I'd probably flip one of them right away.

Filson Lined Wool Cape Coat looks incredible and pretty good price, and then you go straight to more expensive alternatives. LOL. (I like the deck jackets too). Northwest Wool Shirt looks pretty solid as well. Let's give some credit where credit is due. I have the Down Cruiser Vest and it's pretty great. Problem I have with various tech wear is it rips so easily and I have down feathers falling out of some of my best jackets and vests. Duck Tape...

[@WesternRAM]

I started looking into Filson a couple weeks ago and I don’t remember what video I was watching, but somebody in the comments mentioned weatherwool so then I checked them out and fell in love with the anorak. Then I saw this channel had a weatherwool anorak review and I loved it even more! Needless to say.. I switched my attention over to weatherwool and bought a midweight lynx anorak. Should be coming in the mail tomorrow! I will admit spending $625 is a lot, but I like nice things 😁 hopefully it lives up to expectations!

[@tylerc3447]

It feels like filson has become the company for rich people that want to appear as an outdoorsman or someone who works hard

[@PoliticalDissident]

I love their Alaskan guide shirts - you’re right, it’s largely the fit that I love, and certainly not the price, but they do well by me. I own 4 of them, and I’d recommend them without much hesitation if you can deal with the $145 price tag.

[@andyroach420]

I've had my Filson jacket for 20 years. The clothes have become ridiculously too expensive. The Filson store in Seattle used to have the workers who sewed the garments and it was one of the last union sewing groups in America. Filson sold out and is now owned by some rich conglomorate who only care about profit.

[@ericmoss8344]

I do wish Filson would've stuck w/made in the USA and kept their prices reasonable. Good quality typically costs money we all know that. It seems that on a lot of their catalog items, you were somewhat negative and always mentioned the high price, then recommended something more expensive f/another brand. I do think some of their stuff is priced WAY too high, but they still have that heritage (even if they sold out years back) styling that so many of us really like. :) Did you have a falling out w/Filson at some point? Just curious... I do enjoy your videos and we have very similar tastes in clothes/boots. :)

[@burningmanmike]

I don't have a problem paying for Made in USA, provided the quality and craftsmanship are there. I don't like imported unless it's made in the country I want it from, like Swedish meatballs made in Sweden. Fun fact: Did you know Swedish Fish are made in Canada and Turkey, but not Sweden?

[@berndr4650]

Frankly - at this price tag Filson sells livestyle to people with pockets full of money and like the look and feeling like an adventurer but actually are city dwellers . I am based in Europe, got the mackinaw cruiser and some luggage a couple of years ago. Today's pricing is far too high and there are alternative brands which are better looking with a better value for prize... Take the stuff Manifattura Ceccarelli from Italy does. Great wool and waxed cotton product, with a much better cut and fit.

[@EastofVictoriaPark]

Cowichan sweaters are like nothing else. You put money into the communities unlike land acknowledgements that are self-congratulatory.

[@davidcruces4468]

Those sweaters are as warm as the mackinaw cruiser. So comfortable.

[@discoverspam1]

I have their guide sweater I bought 20 years ago. Best sweater I ever owned. Expensive even then but it’s held up better than any piece of clothing I have.

[@_not_nuno_]

21:34 Granted Sweater Company makes sweaters that are somewhat comparable to those designs, if not a little bit more cartoony in looks. They’re priced cheaper, still 100% wool, and made in Canada.

[@hellobrandonscott]

Love these catalog reviews Carl! If I could offer just one critique, you're really great about disclaiming style preferences as "not for me, but I won't judge you if you like it", but when it comes to price, the same consideration isn't given. You often say that something is just expensive, or overpriced, or "a lot of money" but that's just as relative as style. For me, yeah, $900 for a packer coat is a lot of money, but for someone else it might not be, in the same way that a yellow plaid colorway might not be for you but is for someone else. At the end of the day, it's your channel, do what you want, but just pointing out an inconsistency in how you give consideration for things that might be a subjective experience.

[@BeautifuLakesStreamsBiologists]

Bullseye!

[@erickus36]

That sounds a little bit like a snowflake comment there buddy! Maybe you should go find a safe place for a while...

[@AgonxOC]

The Filson Anorak has hidden pockets and snap sleeves to make the diameter smaller. It is a pretty cool anorak.

[@Ives1776]

Union suits are good for cold weather, I've been tempted to get one but winter just past and now it would be a waste for me to purchase one.

[@MrWinger1951]

Far too many other competitors who offer quality wool attire at much more affordable prices, especially by watching for deeply discounted prices.

[@S.L.1211]

Man once I add 30% USD > CAD exchange rate and then the 13% HST sales tax - these become very very expensive garments for us Canadians. But I’d love a few pieces if I found a deal.

[@MarkLasater]

This is great, the only thing I can afford from Filson, is the catalog.

You know for some reason I didn't get my Filson catalog this year. My cruiser is the same as yours Carl. The buffalo plaid, I do wish when I got mine the blue checked pattern would have been available. And yes their 125 year coat is ugly!

[@DDFFFFDDFDFD]

Karl checkout a UK seller I’ve bought a few excellent wool jumpers from at very reasonable prices (especially in the sales), they’re called PAUL JAMES KNITWEAR. Love your content by the way mate 👍🏼

[@Burk]

Items I bought in this catalog that I absolutely love are: ALASKAN GUIDE SHIRT, MACKINAW WOOL CAP, MACKINAW WOOL FORESTER CAP, RUGGED TWILL FORESTER CAP (one of my favorite caps, I love how the hat fits). I felt like their graphic tees were lacking this fall/winter. I didn't find the designs to be that great. I bought the "rope trucker hat" and the quality was very poor.

[@cdakskid]

That Lined Packer coat is stunning. I think it looks much better than the Weatherwool alternative. If I ever find a deal on a secondhand one with that lined pattern, I'm all over it (even though I don't need it).

[@djswany85]

Christmas came early! Can't wait to see your reaction to the Duck!

[@Newspeak.]

I have to say as much as I like stormy kromer caps they generally are not as good of quality as the equivalent filson cap as long as we are talking either wool or tin cloth stuff. I have the waxed canvas ship john x stormy kromer cap and the filson tin cloth caps all blow that out of the water in quality. Also I really want to love weather wool but I just am not sure of the designs maybe I'd have to see them in person but I think looks wise I'd actually prefer the Filson lined wool packer over the weather wool equivalent but theres no question the weather wool is higher quality and their price certainly reflects that. Ultimately in alot of ways I'm stuck with filson though because almost all the smaller US made stuff from folks like Dehen just doesn't fit fat guys which is a bummer but understandable for sure.

[@Thec0nv1ct777]

Id say check daily on ebay for mackinaw cruisers, can find some of close to new for about $300. I was lucky enough to find an Black/Gray cruiser that was effectively mint. Working in an warehouse environment and brushing against some metal. It still looks fine. They will feel very itchy but endure and wear the hell out of it to the point its soft.

[@edc_driving_me_knucks]

Fun vid, I always enjoy your Filson catalog videos. I don’t really understand your beef with the Alaskan guid shirt. $150 for an imported shirt. In the 22 flannel video wasn’t your #1 an Iron heart, $350 and imported? I can’t afford $359 for a shirt so I won’t likely personally know the difference. I’m really not trying to be difficult, maybe you made a video where you elaborated on why the Alaskan is so bad, but I haven’t seen it? Anyway, cheers and happy holidays.

[@josie2056]

I got a vintage mackinaw wool filson. Little on the big size so I’m gonna need to get it tailored a bit especially on the sleeves. And maybe I can use those piece to line the zipper to help keep out the cold Edit: got it on eBay in case anyone was curious

[@averagejoes9218]

Duluth makes a 60 or 70% wool bomber coat with a layer of thinsulate for extra warmth. It's normally like 220.00 I think but I got it on sale for about 100 bucks. I'm sure it's not filson level but I own a only pendelton Mackinaw and I think the duluth wool bomber with insulation is an awesome concept.

[@mikeogden5256]

Well I’d like real high quality stuff

[@spenceryoung2567]

I know you skipped over the 5 pocket tin pants, and granted I get it. There’s nothing really stand out about them. But as a former electrician working both commercial and residential I found them to be harder wearing than my Duluth pants ( which I also love) and I have enjoyed reaching for my single tin pants whenever there’s work to be done. Hope this finds you well, Carl!

I love Filson. I love how they make me wish I was somewhere else outside. The sad fact is, there are much better options out there, most that are made in the USA. They are an overpriced, irrelevant product for most of the population. They are marketing to city folk , that drive a Range Rover, that wish they were cool outdoorsmen/women.

Hi Carl. I don’t think u realize it but you will do a piece on Filson but then go back to how Weatherwool has a better version of whatever Filson piece you’re discussing. Lol. I find it funny because I was a big Filson guy until I discovered weatherwool. Filson has the brand and the name but the quality has definitely gone down in the last decade or so. Weatherwool is this fledgling sort of company without the recognition of Filson but there quality cannot be touched.

[@thedar7164]

The Field Flannel for $115 is the way to go. 7oz flannel , Filson quality, and under $150 its a good one. And the Alaskan guide shirts are excellent also under $150 you move up an ounce.

Have had some Filson caps and vests but won’t replace em due to the ridiculous prices.

[@kinslowrainer3982]

Great video, and I'm glad I found it! I have a somewhat stupid question, but I hope you have time for it because I believe you ride a motorcycle. I'm looking for a warm, wind-resistant jacket for city riding in cool weather (12-17°C/54-63°F), but which has a heritage style to it. What do you think of the Filson Lined Tin Cloth Cruiser or maybe a Tin Cloth Work Jacket + Mackinaw Wool Vest? Pricey, yes, bit is that feasible or crazy? A second question would be if there are any better alternatives (I don't want leather or anything purpose-designed for motorcycle riding.) Thanks!

[@jessebooth2371]

I have a few Filson products. The og briefcase, a mackinaw wool vest, and a quilted Jac shirt (which is more of a jacket not a shirt). I would like to get a few more things but it is getting harder and harder to justify the price. Being from Canada too the exchange is bad right now so let’s say for that packer coat that is almost 1000 that’s almost 1400 Canadian with taxes. And if anyones wondering, no, I don’t wear my Filson stuff for actual “work”, that’s for my cheaper stuff haha most my Filson stuff is for going out or casual.

[@JavaJunky]

I get the impression that most folks who walk into Filson aren't thinking about the prices. The brand is so ridiculously expensive, and is certainly catering to a customer with money to burn. Although, some of us only shop the sales, and there were some good ones in 2023. P.S. it also doesn't help that I live just 12 miles from their flagship store. 😛

[@BeautifuLakesStreamsBiologists]

It may be easy to miss the point of Filson in the modern market. If I want to be thrifty, I can get great value at the military surplus store. I do it often. Filson is there when you want THAT particular piece. If Nordstrom can get $150 for a cotton dress shirt, there will be a market for some Filson products. Not everything a persons wears needs to be of one iconic brand. I do wear one of my cruiser jackets for winter work ( I need the map pocket for a tablet in the field). The other cruisers are the limited editions I collect because I enjoy them. I grew up in a logging family with tattered hand-me-down wool. It worked, I liked it! Besides my current work, it's a nostalgia thing for me. I think that may be the case for many people. Others just want to look "woodsy". that's great; it keeps Filson in business for us all to enjoy the occasional purchase. Some times you just want to know it's a Filson and that's enough for a present for yourself. So, ok xyz brand makes a better windbreaker or whatever, that's fine. Xyz is probably not going to deliver the intangible that a Filson might. I'd buy their windbreakers because I don't care about the intangible for that piece of gear. I think a very large portion of us buy FIlson just because we want their stuff for reasons other than utility. It is what makes the value added world go round. That Nordstrom shirt or polo shirt is very often about image. It's a huge part of the market. Now here's my dig: if you aspire to be Alpha , get a FIlson. If you want to be with the mass crowd, get a North Face. If you really want to be a beta, go with patagonia. Baskin Robbins makes 31 flavors for a reason and none of them are about survival food ;) Suit your mood and be happy! Last winter I even backcountry skied one day in a Filson cruiser. It was a fun nostalgic day alternative to my usual ski gear. Fun is fun; go get some!

I think this video highlights that while maybe not the best value, Filson is #1 in style and marketing. If those deck jacket were half the price of the cape coat I wouldn’t buy. I don’t know if it’s the lighting or angles but they all look awful in comparison. That being said I got my cape coat during the winter sale for $250 (1/2 off old price of 500). You don’t have to pay full price for a lot of Filson items.

Hey Carl, First off happy holidays man! I really dig your channel and I certainly don’t take your suggestions with a grain of salt, I trust your opinions 🤙. I like a lot of the Filson products however I don’t like paying big moneys to find out it was something imported, especially at these prices! Your boot reviews are how I stumbled onto your channel and I had purchased a pair of Whites black roughout Smokejumpers and I have to say I was a little let down regarding the top leather over the front part of my foot particularly ( obviously for their prices! ). I’m still waiting for my Urban Loggers to get shipped but after watching all your reviews on Nick’s I’m pretty damn certain I’ll be thrilled with them ( I also ordered those in black roughout so I’m curious to see the thickness differences compared to my Whites ) once they arrive and I’ll definitely mention what I think on another one of your videos. Getting back to Filson, I have a few of their Tin Cloth jackets and I really like my shirt cruiser even though it was pretty pricey. I’m also waiting for them to make another run of their Moleskin Jac Shirts which I saw in green which they are all sold out of now and I hope they decide to make those in black or even charcoal color, we’ll see I suppose. Thanks again for all the fantastic reviews, I wish I stumbled across your channel sooner because I would’ve saved a ton of cash. Tommy~

Even cheap corduroy is durable. I had a faded glory corduroy from Walmart circa 2004 and had it for 12 years before replacing it with the Kuhl Burr jacket.

Thanks for this nice review, I love the mackinaw product line! I think a really good alternative for the waxed jackets of filson is manifattura ceccarelli, which were producing the european line for filson jackets. They have awesome quality, wool insulation and are fully made in Italy. But I dont know, if these are available overseas. Greetings from switzerland

These catalog reviews are relaxing in a weird way hehe.

I love filson products so much. But I see the price and honestly, I just wouldn’t even spend that if I were filthy rich. Just cause you have the money doesn’t mean you should overpay to that extreme.

16:34 American Giant came out with a flannel that's just $10 more than this that's made in New York. You could say, "Get out of here with those prices"
