    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    Thanks, I was looking at the Pullman as my second choice. I'm not sure I would make use of the straps as you pointed out, which would seem to make that option less effective. Something to think about!

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    Thanks for the pictures, that's very helpful. I think the 246 is the way I want to go, now I just need to find one! @GzStudio, any chance you have one in OG?

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    I was thinking about getting a bag for short trips of 2-5 nights and have my eye on the Medium Travel Bag (246). Any other options I should consider? What's a fair price if I can find one?

    Thanks, that's a helpful summary. I'm leaning towards an OG 257, but now I have to try to find one. Anybody looking to sell one?

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    Here's another question on the 256 vs 257. I noticed with the navy 257 that I currently have that the shoulder strap attaches towards the middle of the bag, which causes it to sit more horizontally depending on how it's loaded. Has anybody else noticed this? Is it just on newer ones? Does...

    That does sound like the 256 holds quite a bit. I keep going back and forth between the 256 and 257, so much so that now I'm starting to wonder if I should consider the journeyman. Any thoughts on if it would look professional enough for the workplace (investment firm)?

    Thanks Gz, can I ask what a "Talon bag" is? (Sorry if this is a stupid question.)

    Thanks @TinMan3 I appreciate the response. I definitely want OG (and I think the 258 is too big for me, so I guess I see if @GzStudio has anything available.

    I guess I would be open to broken in or new depending on the price. I would also have a new 257 in navy if anyone was interested.

    Thanks for the reply. Does the OG color look the same in person on the tin cloth and rugged twill?

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    Hi all, I'm new to this Filson game and was hoping to get some advice. My brother gave me a new 257 in navy that he decided he didn't want. I like the bag, but I think it may be too big for me. At the same time, I'm concerned the 256 might be too small. I've also looked at the 24 hour and I...

    Sportcoat recommendation

    It seems harder to find a navy jacket with horn buttons (as opposed to brass). Is there a specific difference in the coat that prevents it from looking like an orphaned suit jacket?

    Sportcoat recommendation

    Thanks for the replies. Any suggestions on places to look other than Brooks Brothers at a similar price point?

    Sportcoat recommendation

    I'm trying to upgrade my wardrobe and I'm trying to find 2-3 classic sportcoats that will give me the most options to mix/match. I've been looking at the Fitzgerald at BB, but I wanted to see if anyone had any other suggestions.
