In 1897 the Great Klondike Gold Rush was taking Seattle by storm. Lucky for all the panhandlers and fortune seekers in the area, C.C. Filson was prepped to outfit them with Alaskan-inspired outdoor workwear that was crafted for strenuous labor. After the Klondike Gold Rush had come and gone, Filson remained a staple in the Seattle area with trusted clothing and forward-thinking designs. Flash forward to 2020 when the rivers aren’t filled with prospectors, but everyone’s still working just as hard as they did, and Filson’s dedication to quality hasn’t wavered one bit.
The Down Cruiser Vest combines the warmth of modern down with Filson’s water-resistant, tough-as-nails Cover Cloth shell. It’s one of the most rugged vests in Filson’s collection, with handsome looks and durability that could survive the Yukon. Layer it over a flannel or sweater for a getup that’ll last you well into the winter.
