FILSON ALASKAN GUIDE SHIRT
Filson Alaskan Guide Shirt
This post doesn’t exactly fall into the categories of hiking or Jeeps, instead it’s about looking great and feeling great around those outdoor activities. It’s no secret I love flannel shirts and the Filson Alaskan Guide Shirt is my favorite line. These shirts are a medium weight and a very warm. They are also durable and the colors never fade. I have been wearing the red/black and green/black for nearly eight years and both look as good today as the day I bought them. While no longer made in the USA they are still worthy of their price tag. Every button, stitch and crease is perfection.
I wear the Alaskan Guide Shirts three seasons. They keep me warm when the days begin to cool, they are a light windbreaker and I often wear them walking the dog and under other jackets.

The red/black shirt is not just my favorite but also a favorite of females young and old. When combined with my olive colored Orvis Heritage Field Coat this old guy gets compliments at every coffee stop. Interestingly many guys prefer the green/black.

When I want to get attention from the ladies the younger crowd prefer the red/black flannel under my black leather. I finish it off with a splash of Creed Adventus cologne. The more mature ladies prefer the red/black guide shirt under the previously mentioned Orvis Heritage Field Coat with a splash of John Varvatos Vintage cologne.
When I get a chance I’ll post some personal pictures where I am not kissing my dog.
