Few clothing brands have been talked about more in the past couple of years than Flint and Tinder. Sparking even more interest from its Flannel-Lined Waxed Trucker Jacket appearing in the hit show The Last of Us, the Huckberry staple has continued its popularity thanks to its heritage-inspired silhouettes imbued with subtle utility and a heavy dose of timelessness. If you’re not familiar, the brand’s Stretch Ripstop Waxed Field Jacket is another solid option that will keep you warm in the cold months while making you look good in the process.
Channeling that brooding, alienated dreamer version of Marlon Brando with a chip on his shoulder from 1954’s On the Waterfront with double-stacked chest and waist-pocket style, the silhouette is inspired by vintage Canadian Mackinaw jackets that have long been favorites of lumberjacks, trappers, and longshoremen and is equally as rugged. Constructed of 8ox waxed canvas shell that blends cotton (98%) and Spandex (2%) and is wind- and rain-resistant, the coat works perfectly as a cozy outer layer, with soft-brushed 4oz blanket flannel lining (65% cotton, 35% polyester) throughout the body and sleeves, the Field Jacket is also slim and bendy enough to cut it as a non-bulky mid-layer if you so choose. And when the waxing wears off over time, you can rewax the shell to ensure it lasts you for decades to come.
Perfect for hiking, camping, and everyday comfort, the Stretch Ripstop Waxed Field Jacket is a perfect option to stow all your small gear with its four front pockets and hidden interior stash pocket for your wallet or valuables. What’s more, the two pockets on the waist feature a secondary entry point. For a vintage feel, the snap button closure on the outside compartments match the ones down the front.
Available in Fatigue and Khaki, the Stretch Ripstop Waxed Field Jacket is currently priced at $198 from Huckberry’s web store.
