Filson will open the doors Tuesday to its brand new flagship store and announce expansion of its manufacturing capability in Seattle's SODO industrial district.
The 6,500-square-foot store will highlight local artisans who are creating one-of-a-kind Pacific Northwest products found only in Filson’s flagship store. Filson will also become a community-gathering place for workshops and events. A tour of the new retail store and Filson’s factory will take place immediate following the announcements.
Seattle Mayor Ed Murray, Filson president Gray Madden, Seattle Made Co-Director Erin Nelson and SODO BIA Co-Founder Kevin Daniels will be on hand for the ceremony.
SoDo is located just south of Pioneer Square and the Chinatown-International District. This industrial neighborhood is home to Starbucks headquarters, the home fields of the Mariners, Seahawks and Sounders, an assortment of businesses, art galleries, lofts and pubs.
