    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    I am not much of an awards show watcher. Sunday night my wife was watching the Grammys and wanted me to come see the duet of Tracey Chapman and Luke Combs singing Fast Car. She hit rewind to before the duet and the tv was stopped on a still of Luke Combs during an interview. Lo and behold he was...

    At 6’1” and north of 250 I am squarely in an XXL at the present time. Had a few minor surgeries that have me off track but when I get back to a better exercise routine I will appreciate the roominess for layering purposes. I have the captain‘s blue you mentioned and the BlueCoal. Very tempted by...

    Hate to hear that the 258 sold. That was for sure a fine specimen. Love the chesnut leather color. Understandable about not making it a range bag. Still think that is a good application for a 258 just not that one. Also a fan of the Ultralight vests now with 2 of my own, blue variants each. WJR

    Thanks OMG. Really like this bag. I agree with your suggestion. I have a pretty good system with the packing cubes and duffles or TBs. I need to experiment with the different packing cubes with the 70081. Have a 2-3 day work trip next week and will take the time to really see what works and...

    Well as it turns out I have ended up with a motto tag in OG and the next tag in Navy. Interesting that they are one month apart in production. I have taken the Navy on one trip and did not like the way it loaded out with packing cubes. So that was the genesis of my question. Here are some pics...

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    This thread first introduced me to the concept of packing cubes. I bought several sets of Eagle Creek packing cubes and have been using them in duffles and travel bags since. I now also have a 70081 Large Carry-On and I wanted to get some opinions on using the packing cubes when you have...

    Same engine. I have had to replace/repair other mechanical parts though. The engine is still going strong. Here is a picture from the other day. Dirty and needs some exterior and interior work.

    To me this is proof that they absolutely could go ahead and make a 24 hour or 48 hour rugged twill briefcase which would be a much better product!

    Thanks OMG. I have only had mine for 6 years. Bought with 245K and now have almost 295K. Great info on the HJ75! Truthfully a version of which I was not fully aware. Also a Huckberry fan so enjoyed the article as well.

    Completely agree. Love the design and character of the Defenders, but would be wary of reliability and parts availability. On the other hand, I have a series 80 Land Cruiser that needs some work from a cosmetic standpoint but has been very good mechanically. That being said my favorite LC is...

    No idea on the meaning of the “tour” locations on the T-shirt. Completely agree with you on the modern day Bedrock Filson and the “details.” Here are screenshots from another Filson email. This email is touting the small duffle bag and even states “details matter.” Yet the first picture and...

    OMG, Congratulations! Great find! Would really like to hear more someday on how you source such great finds. In regard to the Pullman, can you share your thoughts on how it carries with the strap attachments all on one side? Also, how does it feel loaded up compared to say a 248? WJR

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    OMG, Any new thoughts on the large carry-on, 70081? For me the 70081 seems to hold more than the MTB. Certainly not as much as the LTB. The Pullman is absolutely a nice piece but I prefer the strap attached to the middle of the bag versus just one side. Here is a nice looking tan 70081...

    Before I post for sale elsewhere I wanted to see if anyone would be interested in a lightly used small navy duffle or a new never used medium navy duffle. Please message me and I can provide pictures and more details. Thank you, WJR

    Will definitely watch just for the Filson content. My wife gets a laugh every time we see something on Yellowstone that is Filson and I rewind the scene several times to confirm which bag. From reading posts here, I was forewarned of the Filson content. For me it makes an already good show even...

    I have posted this before without success. Does anyone have a small travel kit in Otter Green in new or like new condition that you would be willing to sell? I missed out on one on eBay and have not seen any others lately and also have not been able to source one elsewhere. Here is a pic of...
