Thx Urb. Xxl sounds perfect for me. I am also interested in some pocs of your jacket. Curious as to what the black looks like in the sun. From store pics it looks kinda shiny
Most Filson Tin Cloth jackets have some shine to them for the first month or so(depending on how much you wear it). It's actually oily to the touch, which is what makes it so waterproof.
I just sold this
It's made of almost the same material and it was shiny at first as well. As you can see, there's no shine to this jacket, which even has a camera flash popping at it. You just have to wait for the oil to work it's way in. I mean you could even wipe it down lightly with paper towels to get any excess oil off.

Ok thx for the info man. Was worried cus it looked kinda shinyl vinyl u know? I think im gonna do the brown anyway

I have the first run of the filson/levis trucker in M and I have the hunter trucker in large, AND a prototype version of the hunter trucker M in dry tin cloth that only two were made. i'd part with all of them. I recently got the Black trucker in L.
I also have the Belltown waxed denim jacket and its awesome.
EDIT: I have since tried on my black trucker again and I think i'm gonna keep it. Sorry to anyone who was interested. The other stuff is up for grabs, and I also have a tin cruiser and a wool hunting vest up for grabs as well.

Yea, I'm going to throw up the plug too…
Just got a tan trucker in XL that just does not leave me enough room to layer. If you are interested, hit me up. I need a XXL so I can wear a hoodie under it...

I bought the Filson x Levi's duffle when it was mis-marked and on sale, and holy crap I love it.
-
I'm not into purses but to each his own.
I'm liking this though.
-
If you can't find an IH duffle I'd suggest this as an alternative.
I just saw it in black at at store in Toronto for $125. It's unlined and made of their lightweight waxed cotton in black.

For all FILSON fan's in GERMANY!
You can get everything you want from Filson, so do the following:
Visit the filson official website (www.filson.com) then put all items you want to have in your shoppingcard. After that make a copy of them and visit www.bakershoe.com. Send them an e-mail with the copy of the filson shoppingcard and make a request. They obtain every filson product you would like to have and send them directly to germany. The Poeple at Bakershoe are very friendly and serious. The whole process goes very fast, about two weeks or so. I ordered there many times without any problem!!!
Best wishes to all !

thx but i can buy fislon in germany in much shops direct,berlin,hamburg,bremen, or internet store www.volls.de
-
sure, but only a very small range of products and not all of them are "Made in USA" !
For the european buyer's Filson often sell the "Made in Italy" items. Additional it's a matter of price, every Filson product you buy in a shop in germany is imported by the "Samowar Mode GmbH" in Frankfurt, and they would make money too. That's beside the reason too, why Filson don't ship to germany by themself. If you do the way I said, I guarantee you that you will saving a lot of money. And of course you get the original "made in USA" ! -
Some of the black label line that they have are designed and possibly made in Italy.
-
Yes, on this tag you can see where it is made!
The italian made products have the same quality then the US, but they fit different. The US are very roomy in the waist and the italian are a bit slimmer. And there are Products too which you can only buy in europe and not in the USA. For example this one:

This is made in italy and only available in europe, but has the same quality!
