I’m going to guess you are referring to the address. It’s been a while since I read the history of Filson locations, but did they change locations in the late ‘90s? Something tells me they had to move during the Stan Kohl era due to a sports stadium takeover.View attachment 1291642
Little test to see how sharp you guys are. Below is a Talon Era Otter Green Filson. Going with the theory that Otter Green, in some form or another, was around in the early 1990's before 1995, which I have provided some evidence that could very well make that true. That's not the purpose of this post however. Can you guys find something in this listing that would make you think otherwise it being a first edition (even if it were Tan)
I'm not referring to model number, twill color, leather shading, or anything actually having to do with the bag itself. Just a little levity, nothing serious, just having a laugh. Actually to give you a clue, the answer is in the tags.
