Filson Introduces Limited-Edition Popeye x Filson Collection
He’s the original Sailor Man, so it is only fitting that Popeye will adorn a limited-edition collection of apparel and wares from Filson, the iconic Pacific Northwest retailer and outfitter with deep roots to Seattle’s maritime community, and King Features Syndicate, a unit of Hearst and home to some of the world’s most popular entertainment characters. The capsule will include custom Popeye graphics on Filson tees, a hoodie and a variety of items, all of which are available now at Filson.com and at Filson stores.
This latest fashion collaboration for the rugged sailor is Popeye’s second with Filson, and it features three unisex t-shirts, one unisex hoodie, a wool cap, an enamel pin set and a pint glass set. The neutral color palette, consisting of whites, greys and blacks, is offset by occasional pops of bright color like Popeye’s trademark blue, his green spinach and the yellow of Bluto’s pants.

Popeye Short Sleeve T-Shirts – Celebrate our favorite sailor, whose scrappy personality is matched only by his appetite for spinach and his heart of gold. Heavy-duty cotton jersey T-shirts feature limited-edition graphics. Made in the USA. MSRP: Images here.
Popeye Pullover Hoodie – Built with 14-oz. fleece, this hoodie is tough yet warm – just like our spinach-gobbling hero.
