I had a pair of Filson Tin pants that I wore for work for 20yrs... and yes, they were still waterproof and I had never rewaxed them as they did not give out a can with them back then. I had saved the leg portion I cut off when I shortened them for my stumpy legs and at about 15yrs had to use that to splice on new leg bottoms. These things looked pretty rude and funny but were still pretty much functional. Finally they started to tear out and I boxed them up and sent to Filson in Seattle to use for advertising... never heard from them I suspect they evacuated the office when they opened them. Always wondered what happened with them. Maybe I should have sent them as hazardous cargo....
