It’s December 23rd; time is running out. If you haven’t finished your Christmas shopping by now, you are either out of luck or running on luck fumes. Oh sure, you might make one last scramble toward the mall or your local shops, but they might not be open on the 24th and do you really want to be scurrying through the mall with all the rest of the last minuters? So let me offer you a quick, easy, and effective solution to all your last minute gift giving needs to your favorite outdoor enthusiast – a Filson online gift certificate.
Since 1897 when Clinton C. Filson’s opened his Pioneer Alaska Clothing and Blanket Manufacturers, specializing in goods to outfit the stampeders to the Klondike Gold Rush, the name Filson has been associated with the pinnacle of quality and durability in outdoor clothing and associated gear. Those who make their living out-of-doors – power company utility workers, back country guides, field engineers, etc. – who often trust their very well-being to the clothes they are wearing to protect them from some of the harshest environmental as well as working conditions on earth have known and sworn by Filson for more than a century. Hunters learned of the benefits of wearing Filson gear shortly thereafter. Some bird watchers and other nature enthusiasts have more recently come to learn of it. Those who have praise the day they did; those who haven’t still get cold, wet, and scratched up by briars, brambles, and blackberry vines.
So if the nature enthusiast on your list ventures out into the field to pursue his or her favorite past-time, and especially if that person is a professional field researcher, photographer, or other denizen of the wilds and weeds who is still paying off college loans and hasn’t yet had the resources to invest in some top-of-the-line field gear, a gift certificate from Filson will surely be welcomed with enthusiasm. Certificates ordered online by 9:00 AM PST on December 24th will be delivered online directly to the e-mail box of your intended recipient in time for the grand festivities on Christmas day.
Peace and good bird watching.
