    New bags at filson website. Their tin cloth will now be their lower price materials as they are moving the rugged twill as their higher price fabric. I will not say the tin cloth is cheaper price as it is still expensive and it not made in USA. They made tin clothes before in classic briefcase...

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    I hhave not checked the new filson briefcase but I did not know they made changes to it. Based on this video, the internal pockets is gone and filson removed it. Is this true!? Seems ridiculous removing the internal pockets for pens and cards. the video is 2 months old.

    The most underrated and under appreciated product that filson ever made and yet they discontinue it. The travel tray. Any time i go out, I always take one. Can be folded flat and turn into a tray.

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    It could be a prototype or a filson restoration made bag. The compact twill briefcase is strictly made for laptops or tablet. it is not as versatile. I have seen them in person and I have seen them in person and on sale and they are just that, It is a built bag for a specialty purpose. The...
