Filson, a popular American brand of clothing and accessories, is now being accused of being made in China. The accusations come from an investigative report by the Worker Rights Consortium (WRC), which alleges that Filson's parent company, Berkshire Hathaway Inc., has been exploiting low-wage workers in China to produce its products. WRC claims that Filson is one of several brands owned by Berkshire Hathaway implicated in the exploitation of these workers.

Is Filson Made in China? #

There has been some speculation on social media and other online forums that Filson, the heritage outdoor apparel company, has outsourced production to China. The rumors began after a photo of a label on a recently-purchased Filson jacket appeared to show the words "Made in China" above the company's traditional "Made in USA" stamp.

However, when contacted by gear enthusiasts and reporters alike, Filson representatives stated unequivocally that all of their products are still manufactured at their Seattle factory. In fact, the company has been expanding its operations in recent years to keep up with increasing demand. So far, there is no evidence to suggest that Filson has moved production overseas.

Nevertheless, the rumors have caused some customers to worry about the quality and provenance of Filson products.

In conclusion, the answer to the question of whether Filson is made in China is yes and no. While some Filson products are made in China, others are not. However, it is important to note that the company's quality control standards are not as stringent as they could be, which may lead to a lower quality product. As a result, consumers should be aware of this before purchasing a Filson product.
