THE ULTIMATE 'LAST OF US' JACKET REVIEW | Fit/Features/Alternatives to Joel's Iconic Trucker Jacket

A lot has changed since my first video about Flint and Tinder's waxed trucker jacket was released two years ago: it has new fits, new colors, new variants, new pricing, and a new job as Pedro Pascal's costar in HBO's The Last of Us. I thought it was time to revisit this iconic fixture in American culture so you can learn why this jacket is my most worn canvas jacket.

My bad - the Filson Short Lined Cruiser _does_ have a lined body. But more expensive and made overseas!

[calebnewton_]

Good stuff! So much info packed into 15 minutes, and I love seeing Carl and Mike making cameos!

[Huckberryco]

Hell of a breakdown - thanks for the love!

I’ve had my waxed trucker wool lined for 2 or 3 years now, absolutely love it. I layer it when I’m out in the desert camping and it keeps me warm in 35degree weather with a sweatshirt underneath. It’s tough as nails too and gets lots of compliments. Love huckberry and the flint and tinder stuff

Picked up the Flint and Tinder Bighorn a few weeks ago. My first waxed canvas jacket. At first I wasn’t sure about the shirt tail style, but it’s growing on me. Wearing it out right now. Love it.

I bought the jacket in your video and the the only issue I had is the arm length. Luckily, I knew a great tailor and was able to get that fixed. If they were to improve the jacket, I’d recommend they put lining in the pockets as well.
On a side note, I also agree with you about unlined waxed canvas jackets. They feel sticky and wet, which is kind of uncomfortable.

How would you clean the collar and cuffs of a waxed jacket? I can live with the body and sleeves looking “lived in” but inside collar can look really gross especially when usually worn over a tshirt or otherwise un-collared shirt. That’s about the only thing that’s kept me from getting the waxed trucker.

Thoughts on the Waxed Canvas Field Jacket from Thursday?

[eliotopian]

Duluth stopped making theirs, but it was $78 end of last year, with cotton lining "Men's AKHG Claimstake Waxed Trucker Jacket" I love mine. wish they brought it back in more colors

Love this jacket, being 5'10" 175 lbs, I was recommended to go with large, but the arms were way too long, so I had to exchange for a medium and now it fits perfectly, great fall and spring jacket. Also, I have the Iron & Resin Cruiser jacket, love that one too. It's heavier and flannel lined so great for colder weather and unlike the Flint and Tinder, it has bi-swing back so works great as a work coat.

You’re probably the only one with a review (even if it’s small) off the rancher jacket. I think it’s slept on. Thanks for the sizing tip. That’s all I was looking for :)

[matthias]

I have the Iron & Resin Scout jacket recommended in the video and love it!

It’s not made in the US, but the canvas is thicker, it has a corduroy collar which is softer to the skin, the pockets are lined (which is a huge improvement) and the lining is 100% cotton plus it has a zipper. Absolutely prefer it over the T&F due to those features.

I picked up the Thursday waxed jacket as soon as I was notified it dropped. I absolutely love it! The fit is perfect on me and it looks amazing. I’m very happy with my purchase. Highly recommend.

[HaydenHero]

I just ordered the wool one! As someone from New Jersey I couldn’t believe that not only is it American made but it’s made in my home state, which is basically unheard of! Pretty excited to get it.

[d.h]

Don’t have axess to Flint and tinder in Sweden but I got a Freenote cloth waxed lined riders jacket that is my everyday jacket and could not be more happy with it. Cheers and thanks for another great vid 🙏🇸🇪

[oidokun]

For waxing, you can just rub otterwax on it and it will look fine. No heat gun needed

[PacdemonStudios]

I've had this for a while, very functional jacket, super easy to re-wax since it isn't bulky, and with a scarf and wool sweater I've done 0 degree (F) days in the snow and been dry and very comfortable. I got it as a gift and was worried it would just be a fashion thing (full respect to menswear kings out there I also like to look good but I'm a function first guy) but it's actually just a really solid, durable weatherproof jacket that happens to make you look great. I like it enough to actually go out and comment about it, if that goes to show how satisfied I am with it.

[joshuamoore]

Excellent review as always! I’m in the market for a waxed canvas jacket (even though it’s getting warmer) and I noticed Thursday recently released one! I wonder how theirs compares with this gem from Flint and Tinder...

[simongrushka]

"it's all natural!" - meanwhile most of the waxed jackets are waxed using paraffin or paraffin/beeswax mixture. it's still more natural than goratex thou.

[uncannyfox]

"Their closest analog is probably the tin cloth short LINED cruiser jacket"

"but the body is unlined"

shows image of FIlson jacket that is clearly lined and mentions it in the name. 🤣
