Filson

Dry Wax Anorak - Men's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I've put the Ranger Anorak through everything from cold drizzle in the Cascades to wet snowfall on a late-season trail run, and the waxed cotton just handles it. The pullover cut is remarkably packable for something this rugged, and the drawcord hood is generous enough to actually cover your face when conditions get sideways."

Cold fronts don't announce themselves, and neither does the Filson Ranger Anorak. When the sky closes in and the trail ahead is still miles from the trailhead, this is the layer that earns its keep. Modeled after the smocks worn by early mountaineers and WWII-era arctic troops, the Ranger Anorak brings real historical utility into a modern outdoor rotation without losing an ounce of character.

Filson built this anorak around water-resistant waxed cotton that gets better with age and use, building a patina that tells the story of every outing. The quarter-length front zipper backed by a gusset lets you vent without surrendering weather protection, while the adjustable drawcord hood provides serious coverage when the rain comes in sideways. Hardware-free waist and hem ties eliminate failure points in serious conditions, and the kangaroo hand pocket keeps the waist ties tucked and tangle-free. A snap-flap chest pocket handles the essentials, and a double-layer back adds durability right where your pack sits.
