nothing major - just a hole on the corner of the bag that you could stick 2 fingers through. they also stitched up a roughed out area that I wasn’t expecting

I think the long turn around time was just cause they shut down for some time and probably reduced staffing
Oh, that makes sense as it was beginning of shutdown.

I have a NWT Small Tan Duffel that I think I want to sell if anyone is looking for one. I had bought it for my oldest, but ended up getting him a Navy as he wasn't a fan of the tan. $210 plus actual shipping cost

Hoping someone out there might be able to point me in the right direction...

I am trying to track down a Filson Mac Cruiser in the forest-green colorway size Medium and with one particular caveat.

If possible I would like to find a new unworn piece from the previous generation of stock, one with the white (union) tag with red colored text, as opposed to the more recent stock which uses a black tag with white colored text.

Any suggestions welcome or am I wasting my time.

Beats me. What is the significance of that tag? Is that the Seattle fit or something like that? Share what you know and we’ll have more motivation to keep our eyes peeled for you because we’ll remember it better.

Actually, call both outlets tomorrow and ask about it. They can at least tell you if they’ve seen that at all. But, still, spill the beans here so we can help. We try to take care of our own and find Filson puppies good homes, right Speedy?

as the owner of quite a few mac cruiser's over the journey, including the limited Scarlet mac cruiser of a few years ago, I have a preference for this generation of manufacturing over the more recent offering... I had one of the black tagged cruisers unravel at the shoulder and while it may have been a one off and just plain bad luck, lets just say I try to avoid the more recent offering where possible

Give Solomon Outfitters a call, they have a lot of NOS and may have one

I've got a 90's Size 46 for sale presently that got worked over by the Filson repairs team, but certainly not unworn. This one's got plenty of scars and the buttons got reworked as well just as a matter of preference.

looks like Solomon Outfitters might be able to help me out; thank you again for the recommendation
Happy to help! I got my brand new tweed and twill from Lynn a couple of months ago. Edit to say, it was a great experience.

The brief discussion last night of the original twill Dopp kit being considered too big for its intended purpose (by some) got me to thinking how it might otherwise be used.

* I’ve ended up using it as an additional packing cube for underwear and socks. It sits up well in my medium travel bag or on either side of my regular Pullman.

* Electronics bag.

* First aid kit for my 511- 24 backpack

* I haven’t actually done this one yet because there is no going back if I do, but it would hold a roll of duct tape and a small army of pliers, combo wrenches, screw drivers, and bungies to toss in the trunk or my truck.

Other ideas?
