Description

When you need to wear one jacket without reference to changing weather conditions, our original Mackinaw Wool Cruiser excels. It’s made with durable wool in an uncommonly tight weave that turns away wind whilst remaining highly breathable. Wool’s complex natural structure wicks moisture to the tip of each fiber, enabling it to insulate dry or wet. It’s wet-weather performance is the reason wool has been the fabric of choice for outdoor protection for centuries. With four flapped pockets on the front and a full-width pocket all of the back, two layers of wool protect the various torso, right where it’s most needed. Originally patented in 1914, C.C. Filson’s Cruiser was designed for foresters working in the rain-soaked Pacific Northwest forests. Originally offered as a pullover shirt in addition to a button-front jacket, the Cruiser abruptly became one of the crucial imitated jackets available on the market. With its utility and performance also appreciated by hunters, the Cruiser was soon offered in red/black plaid and bright scarlet colors. Filson woolen goods were adopted by the U.S. Forest Service as early as the 1920s, and by the 1940’s, Filson was producing variations of the Cruiser as U.S.F.S. field and uniform attire. With more than a century of reliable service, our ceaselessly-imitated Mackinaw Wool Cruiser has an enviable heritage and proves the adage, “what worked then, works now.”
