Re-waxing and Whiskey event brought my wife and I into the San Francisco store. I am a long time Filson customer (35+ years) however first time visiting a Filson retail store. The store itself has a nice selection of most of the Filson line, with plenty of different sizes to try on and purchase. The staff is extremely welcoming, friendly, and most importantly knowledgeable. After waxing my duster, I ended up buying a jacket and vest, the vest was out of stock in my size but they happily called another store and found my size and had it shipped to my home address. While there, we were offered water, coffee and other refreshments multiple times by different employees. Had some great conversations and met some new people.

However this had nothing to do with Filson staff. Will be returning for other events and to purchase more...

I pretty much had an idea of my size but they both took the time to explain how the brand fits and so forth. I then proceeded to listen and go down a size from what I thought. These garments did fit however I do like my clothes just a little bit bigger. I had everything that I had wanted and needed just one more shirt. They had it but I didn’t see my size, behold gareth had one. I was elated. I will be back and I highly recommend asking for either one of these gentlemen when you attend the store. Thanks again to...
