Default Filson gear

I was wondering who of you guys have Filson gear and what do you think of the quality? I was thinking about getting the Rucksack. It's a really nice looking sack which would be perfect for smaller hunting trips. I know it's a fair bit of money but I don't mind paying for quality and durability. So whats you're opinion of Filson?

Matthew,
As their slogan implies..."Might as well have the best!" You won't find better quality anywhere. Absolutely uncompromising, and prices to prove it! Highly recommended.

I have some filson gear and so does my backpacking partner. The duck wax cloth raingear is superior. And the Mackinaw cruisers and coats are worth every penny in the cold. I don't know about the rucksaks, hats, etc, but, if the filson name's on it, it is the best. Buy it once and you won't have to buy it again

I own several Filson products and will agree with everything that has been said. They are the best in craftsmanship, durability and quality, but you pay for it. The double tin chaps are awesome and get better with age. The tin cloth coat I have is practical, looks good and too, gets better with age. For those cool fall and winter days the wool vests are warm and I wear them at the office all of the time. Take the plunge and you won't regret it.
