I ran into a fellow at the Filson store a few months back. He had flown into town from London for the express purpose of shopping at Filson. He bought 3 coats and a pile of other things.
A Filson wearer is an exceptional person, not beholding to marketing weenies who mostly have no idea what makes a servicable garment. While many folks are buying new hot color coats, in some new miracle plastic fiber, at huge prices for imported garments which are designed as non-durable goods, we are still walking around in clothes our Grandfathers gave us.....and the babes swoon....
also remember that our Grandfathers coat has never been washed....so the initial wax odor is a distant memory...and the swooning....hum. <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
