With a pioneer spirit and love of the outdoors, Filson was created in 1987, specializing in the toughest clothing for the frigid men of the Great Klondike Gold Rush. Clinton Filson began by asking hundreds men of the North for their clothing input and experience. Filson has always used the best material because clothing is a matter of survival. The Gold Rush passed, but Filson continued to listen to his customers and expanding his rugged clothing lines. With the best obtainable materials and total guarantees of every piece of clothing, Filson became known for its satisfaction and honest values. Years later, Filson’s philosophy remains the same: “Make sure it’s the absolute best.”
