The [Filson](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/filson-collection) Service Boots 2 are a followup to the original version released last year that will provide wearers with a rugged design and style to integrate into their fall wardrobe. The boots draw design inspiration from the standard issue styles from yesteryear and have been paired with a [Vibram outsole](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vibram-mash-field-boot-gtx) to ensure they're ready to deliver exceptional comfort when worn for extended periods. The boots are further enhanced for durability with [Goodyear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/1000-mile-boot-1) storm welt stitching along with weatherproof leather on the exterior that has been oiled for a rich yet rough look.

The Filson Service Boots 2 are priced at $368 and have an intentionally rustic look that is versatile enough to be dressed up or down to suit needs.
