    Allen Edmonds Appreciation Thread 2019 - News, Pictures, Clothing, Accessories, etc.

    I fail to see the decision, except as to color. Well and shell trumps all. IMO at least. While many think of a long wing as a casual shoe there is nothing else to say I really don't give a damn. And look out here I come. Willing to bet most on here have no idea what you are talking about :)...

    Allen Edmonds Appreciation Thread 2019 - News, Pictures, Clothing, Accessories, etc.

    Thank you! It started innocently enough with the burgundy Dundee. Then brown and black. At the time Paul had just taken over as CEO at AE and not long after introduced walnut shell in the Dalton and Strand. Of course I purchased a pair of each and made the mistake of mentioning on here that I...

    That is the one. The original poster only had 4 posts on SF and deleted his content. He caught flak for his "Dad Jeans" and deleted his posts and did not return. Lots of good content in that thread. I never did go with the Wolverine CXL instead went with the AE Bayfield in CXL. CXL develops...

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    Pictures are worth a thousand words it is said. And I agree some great pictures lately! Yes it is brown, my favorite Filson color, depending on the case that is. In the beginning you had a choice of tan or in some options otter green. Navy and Black are the new kids on the block. Before that...

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    I think the dates are pretty close. The sportsman bag and fly rod case are YKK zippers, haven't checked all the others but ones I did are Filson. Timeline adds up.

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    Sounds like someone is missing some Heritage... :) My grandfathers hunting coat purchased back sometime in the 30's. With his Ithaca 16 ga. M37 that I inherited and ended up refinishing a couple of years ago. It is waxed cotton and still works to this day, glad he was a coal miner and had a...

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    They started in the 1890's selling outdoor clothing from a logging store in Seattle selling mainly to prospectors headed North. Main core since then has been hunters, fishermen, and timber workers. With some ranchers and other outdoor workers thrown in especially where it is cold in the winter...

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    That is the truth. Not a fan of black plastic myself. Retired from the military more years ago than I was active duty. Blue and wood for me thank you very much. And the sportsman bag. More and more remind me of Eddie Bauer. Forgot their roots. Still hoping they will come back to them but...

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    I use the 266 for what it is intended for. Not sure if that makes it specialized or not. Wish I would have picked up the other 2 colors before it was dropped so that I could color code by gauge. Yeah I'd have a hard time using it for clothing IMO there are better options. And I am not a fan...

    Well crap forgot to mention what I first thought when I saw your picture. I like it, and a lot! PTB's and classic McNeils will get you though a lot in life. Shell Cambridge in Burgundy if you feel the need is on the horizon to kick someones arse. And for the most formal occasions black shell PA...

    Yes my good sir you are correct, in more ways than one! So one of the gentleman that I hunt with in SD for phez is a retired Navy Chaplin and served the CG, Navy and Marines that is how it works. He opened Congress in prayer several times and don't want some dick weed to turn this into some...

    That might be open to debate :) I really like Bickmore products and years ago suggested on here how good Bick 4 was great for leather, both calf and cow. So when I picked up the Katmai I used Bickmore Gard More on them. And wear them through mud, snow and rain and have never had an issue...

    @LA Guy Well it did get crazy for you but you did well, very well. You pushed all the right buttons and did the correct steps in the right order. And hope you take my advise and take some time off now, at least a few hours. Sleep is not overrated, just saying... With those pants and socks you...

    Of course there is Red Wing. Not the heritage line on here but Red Wing is the main workboot in these parts. They are expensive but I know many that wear them for the support they give. And Wolverine who manufactured at least a million shell work boots in the day but now has to use AE to do so...

    Hang in there barnweasles it is getting better here and will only continue to do so IMO. There isn't any dedicated threads there. Have posted occasionally there and read hundreds of threads. But only have checked it out a few times in the last few years and appears the same dry place to me...

    Well you are in hell already using an iPhone :( Oh wait my oldest son is level 2 tech support for Apple and I taught him what he knows to get there, belay my last.

    All of you talking about using photobucket go back and read this, it is true. I still have lots of images on photobucket that I am moving to Flickr but will only do it when connected through the firewall at work. Which is setup to stop a Chinese mainframe, or at least slow it down. And it is...

    That was my first thought too, but the Lemon song is shaking your tree when I played it over in my head. I had Zep II and IV on 8 track, along with a few others at one time Still have baby advent speakers from the late 70's or maybe it was early 80's in the bedroom. Tube amp died a couple of...
