Relaxed fit allows room for midweight layers underneath.
All Filson sizes are US sizes which can be larger for a European stature, so we recommend sizing down. We suggest reading all product features and characteristics by referring to our size guide and looking at the product measurements.Our Mackinaw Wool Vest, universally trusted by ranchers, loggers and all manner of sportsmen, has proven itself to be as versatile, functional and practical as any product we’ve ever manufactured. There’s a very good reason it’s been a cornerstone in the Filson product line for more than half a century–it performs admirably in countless situations out of doors, or in.
This pillar of our product line provides warmth with minimal bulk, while maintaining excellent breathability–and does so even if it gets soaking wet. Worn over a warm shirt while actively chasing upland birds, it’s the perfect blend of warmth and breathability in temperatures down to near freezing. Worn under a rain shell, it takes the edge off when wading thigh-deep in an icy steelhead run. Under a Filson wool coat, it adds that extra bit of comfort in temperatures that can take your breath away.
The Mackinaw Wool Vest is built with our warmest wool from Pantex and naturally, it’s the ideal wool to shield humans from soggy or frigid weather. With uncommonly-tight weave, it’s a formidable barrier to wind, and withstands tough use for decades. Due to its complex fiber structure, Mackinaw Wool also offers an unheralded benefit–it’s very simple to care for. Dried dirt brushes off with ease, leaving no trace of its existence. To remove odors, a dry Mackinaw Wool Vest can be tumbled in a warm dryer, and nearly always come out smelling fresh.
The design of the Mackinaw Wool Vest works just as well indoors, whether working in a chilly warehouse or construction site, or sitting behind a computer drawing up plans for your next big project. In addition to creating a classic appearance that works just about anywhere, the V-shaped neckline adds no bulk around the neck, so there’s still plenty of breathing room for a heavy shirt and a rain shell zipped chin-high. The hand pockets have a raised outer-edge to prevent contents from easily sliding out, and the chest pockets are open-stow and slotted-utility.
The Mackinaw Wool Vest–an integral part of an outdoorsman’s kit that performs in any environment.

Filson - Excellent quality for over 120 years
Born in 1850, c.c.filson inherited the pioneering spirit of the Father and the love for the open air. After living in Nebraska and traveling throughout the country as a railway worker, he moved to the town of Seattle, Washington around 1890.
Filson could not have chosen a better timing. In 1897 he began the great golden race of Klondike and thousands of people on the hunt for luck were poured into Seattle, headed to the north. Armed with a great sense of work, a reputation of honesty and long years of experience in dressing colonists and gold seekers of the North-West Pacific, C.C.Filson was ready to become famous. Here's what he said in our 1914 catalog:
"To our customers: if a man is directed to the North, he should go to us for his clothing, because we have learned what is better to wear in that country from the experience of a northern man - and not just one - but hundreds. Our materials are the best available, aware that the best is the result of constant research and that quality is vital. You can absolutely count on our products both as regards the materials and the processing.
