I wear Filson all the time. I have both waxed tin cloth and waxed shelter cloth coats. I find them excellent, heavy and durable, and not quite as water tight as some would like but far more comfortable than they would at first appear. They are expensive but they do last. I have my Dad's wool jacket from the 40's....too bad it is too small for either of us though <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
