Built to last: the resilience of tin cloth and mackinaw wool

The legendary durability of Filson men’s jackets stems from meticulous material selection and stringent construction. A cornerstone is Tin Cloth, Filson's signature 14-ounce oil-finish waxed cotton canvas. This tightly woven duck cotton is saturated with paraffin wax, creating a fabric exceptionally resistant to punctures, abrasion, and weather, while developing distinct character with wear. Complementing this is Mackinaw Wool, a densely-woven, 24-ounce virgin wool with a tight 2x2 twill construction. This heavyweight wool jacket material provides exceptional wind resistance, wicks moisture even when wet, and offers natural insulation for cold climates.

Robust construction includes seamless shoulder designs to prevent water seepage, military-grade melamine buttons, and heavy-duty stitching that withstands decades of rigorous use. These weather-resistant jackets employ oil-finish waxing and breathable lining fabrics like 8-ounce Cover Cloth, maintaining structural integrity and facilitating moisture management. Filson's commitment to lifelong performance is underscored by its Unfailing Guarantee, covering material and workmanship failure for the product's lifetime, supported by an in-house restoration department dedicated to repairing garments.

Diverse styles for every need: from cruiser to work jacket

Filson offers a comprehensive range of men's jacket styles, each tailored for specific use cases and conditions. The iconic Mackinaw Wool Cruiser, patented in 1914, delivers maximum cold-weather protection with its 24-ounce heavyweight wool, insulating whether wet or dry. Tin Cloth Field Jackets feature robust 14-ounce waxed canvas shells with seamless shoulder construction and partial Cover Cloth linings, adaptable with optional zip-in liners (down or PrimaLoft) for varying temperatures. Waxed canvas cruiser styles, including the Aberdeen with lighter 8-ounce waxed canvas, come in hip-length and longer variations. Filson’s insulated jackets combine waxed canvas or Cover Cloth shells with RDS-certified goose down or PrimaLoft Gold synthetic insulation for reliable performance in wet conditions. Bomber-style insulated jackets offer active silhouettes, while heritage barn coats, inspired by vintage workwear, are available in Dry Tin cloth, denim, or traditional canvas, facilitating a modular layering system.

Engineered for the elements: weather-resistant and insulated designs

Filson’s men’s outerwear integrates functional design elements that enhance usability across outdoor and work environments. Multi-pocket configurations are a hallmark, featuring generous front cargo pockets, hidden moleskin-lined handwarmer pockets, and full-width rear pockets, alongside internal utility pockets. Custom fit adjustments are achieved with drawcord waists and hems, while snap-adjustable cuffs allow for layering compatibility. Two-way front zippers with storm flaps provide robust wind and rain protection. Crucial zip-in liner compatibility on field jackets transforms them for extreme cold-weather use. Breathable linings, including 8-ounce cotton Shelter Cloth and polyester fleece, balance comfort with moisture management. Detachable Tin Cloth hoods with wool linings offer modular weather protection. Vintage-inspired details, such as corduroy-lined collars, reflect Filson's heritage while delivering contemporary functionality, all backed by an Unfailing Lifetime Guarantee.

Caring for your Filson jacket: ensuring lifelong performance

Proper maintenance is essential for the lifelong performance of Filson’s jackets for men. For waxed canvas and Tin Cloth garments, spot cleaning with cold water is recommended; avoid machine washing or drying to preserve water-repellent properties. Wool jackets benefit from brushing, with dry cleaning only when necessary. Re-waxing every two to three years with Filson's proprietary Original Oil Finish Wax is crucial for restoring waterproofing, focusing on seams and high-flex areas. Store jackets in cool, dry locations away from direct sunlight. Filson's in-house restoration team provides repair services, reinforcing the Unfailing Guarantee and ensuring these durable garments last for generations, developing character with every season of use.
