Starting in 1897, Clinton C. Filson listened to his customers.»We have obtained our ideas of what is best to wear from the experience of the man from the North - not merely one, but hundreds of them.« (C.C. Filson, 1897)Nothing has changed since then. In fact, most new products are based on customer comments. And, just like C.C. Filson did, the company refines their designs based on customers' and field testers' experiences in the field.Filson works to build comfort, protection, and durability into every product, plus practical features you will need for work or play outdoors.
