I saw the powder blue duffel below at a store in Reykjavik recently and had no idea Filson ever made bags in special edition colors. There was also a pink dopp kit for sale.

Red Oxx is better, and what Filson used to be.

Only Osprey for me. It's hard to beat their lifetime guarantee.

Osprey Bags

I really like their Daylite bags.

I've never heardvof Red Oxx, but I used to really like the Filson stuff I have. My Filson field jacket is the best outer garment I've ever owned or worn.

But I wouldn't buy another one now. Their quality has gone to shite after they off shored pretty much everything.

Had one for over twenty years... of course they didn't have 2 foot labels back then.

Their 'Black Hole Bag' and about 99% waterproof if you don't fully submerge.

Their stuff is really nice but ever since the third private equity company came along and jacked up the prices. Again. I don't have a lot of use for them. I love Duluth Pack (not Duluth Trading). Also Frost River, Boyt, Orvis Battenkill, Klein Tool Bags, etc... Canvas bags are great. But there are nice options made in USA that arent' Filson expensive. They're still expensive,just not stratospheric.

Agree. Their American made duffel bags are about the only thing still hanging on.

I'm a Fjallraven guy. A bag you can actually use and not worry about getting a smudge on like in your OP

I recently got a new black hole after my old one of 20 years. What do you think of new quality?

Seems a little less durable. I’m
Packing it and checking it for a flight tomorrow so we shall see…
