Story & heritage
The Mackinaw Wool Vest is Filson’s simplest expression of its signature wool: warmth at the core, arms free, and enough breathability for active work. Filson frames it as a layer over flannel or under raincoats and wool jackets.
Because it removes bulk from the sleeves, the vest carries the old outfitter logic into everyday use: warmth where it matters and movement where it counts.
Materials & craft
Filson describes Mackinaw Wool as a tightly woven signature wool that blocks wind, withstands hard use for decades, and keeps working in cold, wet conditions. The vest uses a V-shaped neckline, handwarmer pockets, and a simple front closure.
How to choose & style
Forest green and charcoal are the useful colors: both layer under canvas jackets and over checked shirts without fighting the rest of the outfit.
