There’s a happy medium to strike as you sort through your array of men’s style essentials, especially for spring: Blustery weather can strike at any moment, and proper preparation (and style) calls for building an outfit with a rugged performance jacket in mind. There’s also a line to walk between performance (the kind of jacket you’d wear to go hiking or camping), and more casual everyday style (the kind of jacket you’d wear with crisp jeans and chukka boots).

My friends at Huckberry — and your friends at Huckberry, of course — have a way in terms of finding the expert middle ground between toughness, form and function, and it’s all on display rather handsomely with the new, on-sale Flint and Tinder York Quilted Jacket (we’re talking about the Tuesday Steal, after all).

The Flint and Tinder York Quilted Jacket carries on the brand’s penchant for sturdy, strong yet supple waxed jackets, each more carefully crafted than the last. This particular option (marked down below $180 from nearly $300) turns the typical Flint and Tinder formula — classic trucker jackets and field jackets — on its head by opting instead for a streamlined puffer jacket design.

The same trademark weatherproof treatment remains top of mind, as Huckberry worked with famed British producer Halley Stevenson on a custom Halley Stevensons Dry Finish Waxed Cotton Canvas fabric in a tough 8.6 oz weight. That means the Flint and Tinder York Quilted Jacket is a touch heavier than the 7oz. waxed sailcloth of the iconic Flint and Tinder Waxed Trucker Jacket, which just so happens to be another fine spring wardrobe addition.

And while the body of this jacket is lined with 100 percent nylon for strength and an easy-on, easy-off touch, recycled polyester and PrimaLoft fill out key stress points (like the collar) for additional warmth without a ton of weight.

The hard-wearing Flint and Tinder York Quilted Jacket even comes in Huckberry’s signature Field Tan color, or a versatile shade of Dark Olive. Sizes are going quickly now that it’s prime time to rock this casually cool, functionally minded take on the puffer jacket. Think of it like your old-school quilted puffer, yet amped up with the sort of style and utility only Huckberry can provide. You can’t go wrong with spring savings and style on the Flint and Tinder York Quilted Jacket, my friends.
