The Filson Tin Cloth Field Jacket is designed for outdoorsmen, field workers, and anyone requiring rugged, weather-resistant outer layers for harsh environments. Its primary benefit is legendary durability against thorns, abrasion, and heavy precipitation thanks to the signature oil-finish fabric. A key caveat to note is that this is a heavy-duty, structured garment; it requires a break-in period and should never be machine washed or dry cleaned, as this will compromise the oil-finish treatment.

No. Machine washing will strip the oil finish and ruin the water-repellent properties of the fabric.
Apply Filson Oil Finish Wax to the exterior, then use a hair dryer or heat gun on a low setting to melt the wax into the fabric until it is evenly absorbed.
While the cotton construction has some natural breathability, the oil finish reduces airflow; it is best suited for cooler temperatures rather than high-exertion activity in the heat.
Yes, the rear pocket is ideal for storing gloves, hats, or a light rain shell, as the nylon lining protects your back from damp items.
Store in a cool, dry place on a sturdy hanger. Ensure the jacket is completely clean and dry before storing to prevent mildew.
Tin Cloth is naturally rigid; wear the jacket frequently to allow the fabric to soften and mold to your body over time.
The protective wax finish has likely worn off; re-apply Filson Oil Finish Wax to restore the water-repellent properties.
This is normal for new or freshly waxed oil-finish garments; air the jacket out in a dry, ventilated space for several days.
Because of the oil-finish treatment, this jacket requires specific care to retain its performance. Never dry clean or machine wash the garment, as these processes strip away the protective waxes. To clean, brush off dried mud or debris; for stubborn stains, use a damp cloth and mild soap (if absolutely necessary), then allow it to air dry in a well-ventilated area. Periodically, the jacket will require a fresh coat of Filson Oil Finish Wax. Apply the wax to the exterior fabric and use a hair dryer or heat gun to help the wax absorb into the cotton fibers. The jacket is designed to be worn over standard base layers and mid-layers, providing a protective outer barrier.
