Reviews of clothing, boots, and accessories for men, along with style advice and life philosophy. I've been working with my hands for my entire life as a mechanic, tow truck driver, and eventually a licensed electrician. Being a blue collar guy, I look for certain elements in a product: is it durable? Is it high-quality? Will it perform well over its service life? Whether boots, pants, jackets, or tools I believe it's best to buy once and cry once by getting the best you can afford. With so many options these days, choosing the best product can become a difficult decision, but that's where I come in. Helping you stay stylish, rugged, and handsome.
I don't care where it's made as long as it's made well and allows you to own less and own better.

20:19 Hey Carl. I don't know if you know, but when it comes to determining the warmth of a duck/goose down garment, you need to look for two things: (1) fill power and (2) down weight. Fill power tells how lofty the garment will become. Fill weight tells you how much insulation is in the garment. From experience, a jacket with 850+ fill power containing 6oz of fill weight can keep most people warm in the 20s or even teens with only a t-shirt underneath.

I started looking into Filson a couple weeks ago and I don’t remember what video I was watching, but somebody in the comments mentioned weatherwool so then I checked them out and fell in love with the anorak. Then I saw this channel had a weatherwool anorak review and I loved it even more! Needless to say.. I switched my attention over to weatherwool and bought a midweight lynx anorak. Should be coming in the mail tomorrow! I will admit spending $625 is a lot, but I like nice things 😁 hopefully it lives up to expectations!

Hey Carl, First off happy holidays man! I really dig your channel and I certainly don’t take your suggestions with a grain of salt, I trust your opinions 🤙. I like a lot of the Filson products however I don’t like paying big moneys to find out it was something imported, especially at these prices! Your boot reviews are how I stumbled onto your channel and I had purchased a pair of Whites black roughout Smokejumpers and I have to say I was a little let down regarding the top leather over the front part of my foot particularly ( obviously for their prices! ). I’m still waiting for my Urban Loggers to get shipped but after watching all your reviews on Nick’s I’m pretty damn certain I’ll be thrilled with them ( I also ordered those in black roughout so I’m curious to see the thickness differences compared to my Whites ) once they arrive and I’ll definitely mention what I think on another one of your videos. Getting back to Filson, I have a few of their Tin Cloth jackets and I really like my shirt cruiser even though it was pretty pricey. I’m also waiting for them to make another run of their Moleskin Jac Shirts which I saw in green which they are all sold out of now and I hope they decide to make those in black or even charcoal color, we’ll see I suppose. Thanks again for all the fantastic reviews, I wish I stumbled across your channel sooner because I would’ve saved a ton of cash. Tommy~

Hi Carl. I don’t think u realize it but you will do a piece on Filson but then go back to how Weatherwool has a better version of whatever Filson piece you’re discussing. Lol. I find it funny because I was a big Filson guy until I discovered weatherwool. Filson has the brand and the name but the quality has definitely gone down in the last decade or so. Weatherwool is this fledgling sort of company without the recognition of Filson but there quality cannot be touched.

But you never mention Filson life time warranty, most of their products 10, 20, 30 years from now as they wear out can be replaced or repaired. Remember buy once cry once. Buy better own less. I would like to here more about life time warranty in your reviews. I try to buy clothing I will never have to buy again. For example I awn 7 pairs of darn tough Vermont socks . I will never have to buy another pair Love the channel and have a happy holiday to you and your family

Id say check daily on ebay for mackinaw cruisers, can find some of close to new for about $300. I was lucky enough to find an Black/Gray cruiser that was effectively mint. Working in an warehouse environment and brushing against some metal. It still looks fine. They will feel very itchy but endure and wear the hell out of it to the point its soft.

I'm looking for a warm, wind-resistant jacket for city riding in cool weather (12-17°C/54-63°F), but which has a heritage style to it. What do you think of the Filson Lined Tin Cloth Cruiser or maybe a Tin Cloth Work Jacket + Mackinaw Wool Vest? Pricey, yes, bit is that feasible or crazy? A second question would be if there are any better alternatives (I don't want leather or anything purpose-designed for motorcycle riding.) Thanks!

Hope this finds you well, Carl!

Duluth makes a 60 or 70% wool bomber coat with a layer of thinsulate for extra warmth. It's normally like 220.00 I think but I got it on sale for about 100 bucks. I'm sure it's not filson level but I own a only pendelton Mackinaw and I think the duluth wool bomber with insulation is an awesome concept.

@hellobrandonscott Жыл бұрын

Love these catalog reviews Carl! If I could offer just one critique, you're really great about disclaiming style preferences as "not for me, but I won't judge you if you like it", but when it comes to price, the same consideration isn't given. You often say that something is just expensive, or overpriced, or "a lot of money" but that's just as relative as style. For me, yeah, $900 for a packer coat is a lot of money, but for someone else it might not be, in the same way that a yellow plaid colorway might not be for you but is for someone else. At the end of the day, it's your channel, do what you want, but just pointing out an inconsistency in how you give consideration for things that might be a subjective experience.

Nice substantial bill and warm ear flaps when needed. I live high in Colorado, so I wear a warm hat everyday all winter. This one was a very good add to my collection. They call it their Leather McKinley Cap...just an idea for you to check if you ever have time.

It may be easy to miss the point of Filson in the modern market. If I want to be thrifty, I can get great value at the military surplus store. I do it often. Filson is there when you want THAT particular piece. If Nordstrom can get $150 for a cotton dress shirt, there will be a market for some Filson products. Not everything a persons wears needs to be of one iconic brand. I do wear one of my cruiser jackets for winter work ( I need the map pocket for a tablet in the field). The other cruisers are the limited editions I collect because I enjoy them. I grew up in a logging family with tattered hand-me-down wool. It worked, I liked it! Besides my current work, it's a nostalgia thing for me. I think that may be the case for many people. Others just want to look "woodsy". that's great; it keeps Filson in business for us all to enjoy the occasional purchase. Some times you just want to know it's a Filson and that's enough for a present for yourself. So, ok xyz brand makes a better windbreaker or whatever, that's fine. Xyz is probably not going to deliver the intangible that a Filson might. I'd buy their windbreakers because I don't care about the intangible for that piece of gear. I think a very large portion of us buy FIlson just because we want their stuff for reasons other than utility. It is what makes the value added world go round. That Nordstrom shirt or polo shirt is very often about image. It's a huge part of the market. Now here's my dig: if you aspire to be Alpha , get a FIlson. If you want to be with the mass crowd, get a North Face. If you really want to be a beta, go with patagonia. Baskin Robbins makes 31 flavors for a reason and none of them are about survival food ;) Suit your mood and be happy! Last winter I even backcountry skied one day in a Filson cruiser. It was a fun nostalgic day alternative to my usual ski gear. Fun is fun; go get some!
