Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

[OtterMeanGreen]

First flight in months! Headed to DFW from STL. Decided to go with the small Pullman for this trip.

Classic bag to carry!
My daughter made our itinerary for today and she has included a restaurant near the Filson Plano store. She knows her Dad!

Which Talon Era bag is that shoulder strap from?

Ok Filson fam. Advice needed. My girlfriend likes all of my Filson bags (medium duffle, 356, 261, travel trays, etc), and says she wants something like my medium duffle for long weekend travels. The thing is she doesn’t like any of the more masculine colors it comes in. Is there, or has there been, a release in a color/leather combo that she may like instead? If you know of other brands of equal quality that would get the job done in this case, I’m all ears. Thanks all.

May not be a Medium Duffel but the color might be more female friendly in a un- @linablair kind of way

Say it isn't so Filson....Scented Candles and Fanny Packs?

At least they got the design and scent right, but not for $40

Candle

Natural soy-wax candle with a forest scent.

This one might be even more difficult to comprehend, a fanny pack, or "Belt Bag" which is what they were referred to when I was growing up. What is this the 1980's all over again? Can't say I like the logo design either, looks kinda retro. Plus that zipper looks pretty flimsy for $80

Always brings me back to this scene from "The In-laws" remake

I actually use a Filson Trout Fishing "fanny pack" as my dog walking bag. Carry plastic bags to pick up after him if he decides to "decorate" someone's lawn, plus treats for being a good dog. Of course it looks like a fishing bag, not like the fanny pack in the picture. But does the job, and I like it.

Thanks. Thought about that color but she likely wouldn’t go for it. I wish they made something like they sometimes do in the totes with different colors and the light tan leather.

If you’re referring to this pack I think you’re in the clear

This is the image I have seared in my mind when I think “Fanny Pack”.

Thats the one, I removed the wool for the fly's, but otherwise it's "stock" and when I put it on, dog knows he is going for a walk.

I have the same image of fanny pack, and figured since I like Filson, and they make the trout bag, might as well use it for dog, as trout are not very common in Illinois. I think I have sold maybe 10 or 12 of them to dog people around here who ask "What is that dog treat bag?"

This thing's a unicorn but if you're lucky... blue/light leather Filson x Nanamica duffle? I have the tote, probably the only thing that caught my my girlfriend's eye lol.

That would be solid but god I hate to see the price. That’s part of the reason I mentioned other brands - they might be priced better.

Since I've retired, I no longer use my 257. I'm thinking of selling it, about 10 yrs old, in good shape, Do you guys think $125 would be out of reason?

I’d scratch my chin on that. Color?
