From school through adulthood, backpacks remain one of the best ways to carry things around.

The darker tan with a bright orange accent is 50% off, and its classic full tan variation is 30% off, now just $277.

Inspirationally, the design of the Journeyman is very similar to that of other Filson backpacks, like the Surveyor. It has a spacious main compartment, an interior laptop pocket, and a roomy padded back panel. What separates the Journeyman from other backpacks is its waxed Tin Cloth fabric, made to persist through inclement weather while still looking ruggedly handsome.
One shopper recognized that the Journeyman is “made from quality materials and is well put together.” They said that the backpack was great for their simple needs, saying, “I wanted something that was basic, well thought-out, and built to withstand my outdoor work environment. This fits the bill.”

Another shopper, who called the Filson an “amazing backpack,” showed that you can also use the backpack for more adventurous activities than work: “I just took it on an 8-mile hike through two slot canyons in Utah, and it was everything I needed. The pack comfortably held a couple of quarts of water, a large first aid kit, food, a rain jacket, maps, and additional gear. With the weather resistance of the oiled Tin Cloth, you couldn’t ask for more from a backpack.”
