Filson Alaskan Guide Shirt
$135.00
This iconic work shirt is ideal for outdoor jobs and great when worn with a t-shirt underneath, or with an overcoat on a really cold day. The 8-ounce cotton flannel will keep you warm, but won’t make you sweat during work. This is 100% cotton, so not as stain resistant as some. It’s also not the best for moisture wicking. But for great comfort and sturdy design (even through many washes) it’s one of the best out there.

Filson shirts are very stylish, rugged quality, and have been around for over 120 years.
Born in 1850, C. C. Filson inherited his father’s pioneer spirit and love of the outdoors. After homesteading in Nebraska and roaming the country as a railroad conductor, he moved to the small city of Seattle, Washington in the 1890s.
TOUGH, COMFORTABLE OUTDOOR CLOTHING FOR HUNTERS AND ANGLERS, ENGINEERS AND EXPLORERS, MARINERS AND MINERS
The Gold Rush faded into history, but Filson kept listening to his customers, and outdoorsmen kept coming to Filson for rugged clothes. Drawing from his past experience outfitting loggers, he soon added clothing for the timber industry, including the Filson Cruiser, the garment that was to earn Filson a place in history. Designed and named by C.C. Filson, and patented on March 3, 1914, U.S. Patent #1088891, the Cruiser Shirt continues to influence Filson’s best selling items.
WORLDWIDE REPUTATION FOR HONESTY, QUALITY AND DURABILITY
Filson continued to make his goods from the best materials obtainable, and guaranteed every piece of merchandise. If he didn’t stock an item a customer needed, he custom-made it for him. Filson’s name became synonymous with reliability, satisfaction and honest values. By the 1960s, Filson’s reputation as the premier outfitter for outdoorsmen had spread around the globe. In addition to being stocked by retailers of quality outdoor wear, Filson garments were being ordered by mail from places as far away as Greenland.
