For a brand that was established in 1897, Filson has certainly held its own in the fashion industry. The brand is renowned for their rugged and durable clothes and accessories. From a large dufflebag to a portable rucksack, their bags are guaranteed to last a lifetime and still carry that trademark mix of canvas and leather, making them just as relevant today. In fact, other leather goods companies and fast-fashion houses have copied or pulled inspiration from their bags.
My favourite piece from the originals collection is the everyday briefcase. The rugged twill with leather detailing make it the perfect masculine carryall holding everything from files to a laptop. A perfect mix of fashion and functionality that will compliment any man.
