Some of the black label line that they have are designed and possibly made in Italy.

Yes, on this tag you can see where it is made!
The italian made products have the same quality then the US, but they fit different. The US are very roomy in the waist and the italian are a bit slimmer. And there are Products too which you can only buy in europe and not in the USA. For example this one:

This is made in italy and only available in europe, but has the same quality!

By the way:
At www.bakershoe.com you can buy the best USA boot brands like Wesco, White's, Nick's, Danner etc. Some of them are cheaper as on their own shops on the homepages!

Shane, how are those alaskan guide flannels u picked up? Fit, weight and quality wise

Quality is pretty great. I got larges and they fit like IH XXXLs. I think after a wash they will fit even better. The material is extremely soft.
I got lucky and found two for pretty cheap. One of them was made in USA and one in Hong Kong. I'll be getting a blue one and the white one as well.
$340 for four amazing flannels ain't bad. Probably wont fit most of the euro toddlers on here though…

Lol dude. Post up some measurements of the lrg if u dont mind man. I like the red and green but will b purchasing the 72 in green for sure and might save myself some cash and do the red filson instead of both 72's lol

Thanks for the tip JayDee! Did you had to pay customs?
-
Yes, unfortunately yes!
Take the price in $, then add the shipping and now convert the whole price in €. At the custom office you have to pay 19% sales tax and between 7% and 12% customs duty. If you add all together, you could say the price in $ is like the price in €!
Attention:
Take care of the actual currency translation rate! -

@tmg:
Anybody know of any shops in the UK that stock (or can order in) Filson?
I keep looking at the Portage Bay jacket, but would want to try one on for size first.
see posts above. present in london carry filson black label.
not sure if anyone carries the US stuff.
meaty import duty and VAT add about 35% to cost on import.
still its sale time so a good time to order.
i got an eddie bauer skyliner for £40 today.
can't be bad.
I only try to help getting the best products for the best price…
