Is your Minnesota Tuxedo of the west coast Filson variety or the Bemidji Woolen Mills native son? Or are there others. I just saw that Bemidji sells on in 30 oz wool vs 24 oz for Filson.Cool late morning finds me bundled in a Minnesota Tuxedo and a Monsavias Sport Cap.
Cutting wood and comfy. Best, Eric -

I guessed it was probably Filson. Very Cool about having your Grandfather's bibs. Did you frame them when they finally gave up?Filson of West Coast fame. It is an Alaska fit version. I replaced a Filson, same color, that I inherited from my Grandfather. He bought his when he returned home from WWI. I suspect my version will outlast me. The old version was a heavier wool - like a double Mackinaw I have. This version is the "lighter" 24 oz.

I purchased two bespoke tweed caps from AmiCharnel on Etsy and had him sew in a water proof liner. They work well in rain but have yet to have them thoroughly drenched. On the down side AmiCharnels Etsy site is inactive now.One of these days I will have to buy myself a good quality cap. Best I have right now is a Tilley winter flat cap.
