Does anyone use Filson clothing / hats / stuff? If so, where did you find it in BC? I found suppliers in the US, but of course sizing is important.

Russell's and Wholesale in Calgary both carry it and both have mail order. I'm not sure in BC though.....

If you don't mind a drive south of the border you should go there main store in Seattle. I'm sure they'll have lots of sizes etc.. It's great stuff and lasts a long time. I have a waxed ball hat of their's that's over 14 years old and still tickin'.

I did drive south today and it was hit or miss for selection. That flagship store sounds great though. I have looked at Wholesale and Russell's and the shipping would be tough to stomach. And with my odd sized brain bucket fit is important. (Yes, that last comment is rife with burn opportunities, please refrain).

I will have to give them a call. Driving to an outlet mall was torture.

Finding an assortment of sizes at this time of year is going to be hit-or-miss at best. It might be advisable to wait a bit, if you can.

I found a source in BC, in fact, it is located at "Pacific Angler located at 232 W. Broadway (on S side of Broadway between Alberta and Columbia). We are right next to M.E.C.". This is from the newest fishing store in Vancouver. They carry Filson along with many other top brands.
