This is going to be long winded
It's been so long since I've posted here I've forgotten how to
I have a Vintage Filson Jacket that I've searched and searched and I can't find one like it. I don't see how I can't post a link to a picture (which I haven't taken yet anyway)
I've reached out to the Filson people but I'm not sure how much help they will be since it's Vintage. It looks like it is Tin Cloth Field Jacket but not exactly. It's different being Vintage MOL. It has the corduroy collar but it's the same color as the jacket and I swear I can't find another one that has that.
My Field Jacket cloth tin jacket is (I think) a dry cloth and not the oil cloth. The jacket is different from the current version in that is not lined and has no snaps for a hood or liner. It has grommets under the sleeves for ventilation. The pockets are TOTALLY different. The bottom piece are not pleated but one solid piece. The top piece of the pocket does have the swoop part which makes me call this the Field Jacket rather than something else. This is the only jacket that I see that has that.
The tag, from what I can see from eBay is what they are calling "Vintage". Made in Seattle.
The collar and pockets are what is throwing me off. I can't put the 2 together and find what to call it. DH bought it before trying it on and thought it would fit him. It's an XL but it fits like an XXL. So I'm stuck trying to resell it. I don't want to call it a Field Coat if it's not and if it's rare - I don't want to under price it. I want to do a BIN. I know the Vintage Filson are probably worth more than the Filson today before the company got bought out.
So. Can I post a picture? How?

I dont remember either but if you ask the question on Ebay forum,you can add picture easily without HTML codes.
By the way,what happens to the eye doctor with the dog and Fenix03??
