The World’s Toughest Bags Just Got Even Tougher

Filson introduces a waterproof leather collection

Filson’s always been the most reliable guy in the room.

The Seattle-based outdoors company has built a business on rugged gear that lasts a lifetime, and have always been the kind of company to practice what it preaches.

So it makes sense that they’ve decided to outfit their most beloved carryalls with the most reliable weatherproof leather on the market.

Outfitted with water-repellent hides from Wickett & Craig, Filson’s new all-leather waterproof collection is functional meets handsome. In addition to being available in four styles — the briefcase, Journeyman backpack, rolling carry-on bag and duffle bag — each bag is finished off with hardwearing English bridle leather and lined with Filson’s Tin Cloth waxed canvas.

Basically, the most reliable guy in the room just became indispensable.

Check out the gallery below for the full line, or head on over to Filson to grab your pack.
