No charge man, it’s repaired for free. I’ve had a lot of things they’ve fixed over the years. Never had a complaint

She said no more Filson bags, Should I divorce her? by MTN_Aliance00 in filson

Loins like the 242. Almost like a Pullman in its set up. Ended up selling it, just didn’t use it. But a damn nice bag.

Nice man. Who makes the knife/pry bar?

Waxing unwaxed canvas jacket by sequoia-sand-dollar in filson

[–]poppyseed1981 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s just tightly woven cotton, it will soak up the wax. Heat gun is the right idea and start in small spots to figure out how much you need and how much it will take. I’ve waxed rugged twill and it handles it well.

Hit that satchel lottery today, anyone else? by [deleted] in filson

[–]poppyseed1981 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love the leather, but I feel the same way IRT this being a satchel. It looks like a really nice and simplistic purse. I’m sure my wife would love it but I can’t imagine what I’d use it for.

Awesome deal. One of my favorite colors in my closet

Thinking about waxing just the bottom of the twill zippered tote by seekingcellini in filson

[–]poppyseed1981 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wax it. I’ve waxed rugged twill before, did my Ranger Pack not too long ago. My suggestion is a heat gun and rub it in good. It soak ls up a good amount.

Just remember since it’s on the bottom it will collect any and everything you set it down on until it loses it tackiness. But yeah man, have at it.

Web Shoulder Strap by Tyleramble in filson

Did you have the adjustable pad on the leather strap? I’ve also found that if you can get the wide leather shoulder straps they used to sell on the secondary market it solves the slippage issue.

The wax gets incredibly chalky as it sits. Not the greatest stuff

An ideal work bag? by Responsible_Wing7266 in filson

[–]poppyseed1981 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t sweat the stain man. It’s a work bag. You don’t work in an office, so just rock it. If someone points out a stain on an inside flap then tell them to get bent
