As much as we love a great pair of jeans, we do our best to find alternatives whenever possible.  There are plenty of choices out there, but very few actually make the cut.  One pair of pants that we’ve really been drawn to as a denim alternative comes from one of our favorite West Coast brands, Filson.  Their Antique Tin Cloth 5-Pocket Pants are a perfect stand in for jeans day in and day out.

Filson’s Antique Tin Cloth is basically the stuff of legend.  Over the years, they’ve used it to make just about everything in their collection (bags, hats, jackets, etc.) and the results are always outstanding. The Antique Tin Cloth 5-Pocket Pants are no exception.  Available in Dark Tan or Otter Green (shown), these pants feature a classic straight leg cut, and the same pocket configuration you’d find in your favorite jeans.  Of course, just like the rest of the Filson Tin Cloth options, the 5-Pocket Pants are water resistant, so for days with rain or snow in the forecast they really shine.  Built to last a lifetime, add these to the list of Filson products that’ll become a wardrobe staple for years to come.
