See Now, Buy Now: The Flint and Tinder Flannel-Lined Waxed Trucker is Back and Better than Ever

At the best of times, the coolest men’s gear (especially for the fall season) transcends time and space to become a constant presence in your wardrobe. The right flannel shirt, an expertly cut pair of blue jeans and your favorite, treasured leather boots all deserve their rightful place of honor in your rotation of the best menswear for autumn — and you could say the same about the casually rugged, expertly crafted waxed trucker jacket of choice.

Let’s go one step further — the Flint and Tinder Flannel-Lined Waxed Trucker Jacket in all its glory belongs on the proverbial Mount Rushmore of modern menswear, and it’s now back and better than ever in a new colorway.

Crafted in a new shade of Natural (as well as an eye-catching, limited-edition Sea Kelp Camo), the best-selling, fan-favorite waxed trucker jacket gets a fresh look with the same tried-and-true specs that have made it the best-selling Huckberry product of all-time. How about that, ehh?

For Huckberry, that means the new colorway of the Flint and Tinder Flannel-Lined Waxed Trucker Jacket still boasts the same precise attention to detail and rugged appeal as other classic options from the Americana retailer. This particular option is made in Los Angeles for the ultimate in quality craftsmanship, while the re-waxable 100% cotton-based Martexin 10.10 oz. Army Duck Canvas is tough as nails and made to be broken in year after year.

This revamped take on the Flint and Tinder Flannel-Lined Waxed Trucker Jacket also features a 14-wale corduroy collar for stylish contrast and protection from the elements, while its F&T custom metal buttons get a durable antique finish. As with other editions of the tried-and-true waxed trucker jacket, the retailer uses a custom blanket stripe flannel lining through the body and sleeves for warmth and added structure.

And if you want to talk about a jacket that can stand up to adventures on the open road and out in the field, this is your new go-to option, Huckberry notes. “Over time, it will develop a distinct patina, shaped by wear and the elements,” and yet, there should be little-to-no break-in time needed, at least in my experience wearing my favorite waxed trucker jacket.

When it comes time to welcome the season at hand in earnest, you already know what jacket will be on your shoulders: The Flint and Tinder Flannel-Lined Waxed Trucker Jacket, of course. See you out there, my friends.

The Sunday Sale: Take An Extra 15 Percent Off On-Sale Menswear at Huckberry This Week

Huckberry Winter Sale 2023

As I often talk about here at The Style Guide, curating a wardrobe packed with menswear essentials you love to wear should be fun, it should be consistent, and it should involve really seizing the day and striking while the iron is hot, so to speak. What exactly do I mean by that?

Well, take this weekend’s ongoing menswear sale at Huckberry, long one of my favorite brands (and one of the best online menswear shops at which to spend your hard-earned cash). If you know where to look — say, the Huckberry Sale section — you can indeed strike while the iron is hot, saving yourself an extra 15 percent in the process.

Head to Huckberry right now

That’s because my friends at Huckberry are now running a Sale on Sale, now through March 10th. So, time is of the essence as you peruse the always well-stocked Huckberry Sale section, and that’s a good thing — these deals won’t stick around for long in terms of inventory, either.

Best waxed jacket for spring.

The scoop is this: You’re already getting as much as 40 percent off some of the best rugged menswear around, yet now Huckberry is throwing in an extra 15 percent. That means classics like the Flint and Tinder Waxed Hudson Jacket are now well under $300, and just in time for rugged spring layering, too. Don’t take my word for it, though: Check out the Huckberry Sale section yourself this week to save an extra 15 percent on your new favorite menswear. Cheers, my friends.

If there’s anything I hope you’ve picked up these last few weeks on the blog, it’s that preparing nice and early with the best fall style essentials is only going to benefit you in a big, big way. That could be as simple as figuring out how to wear chinos or it could go beyond that, like picking up the best jeans for men or, say, one of the most rugged shirts on the market. It’s that second topic that we’ll focus on today, and it’s high time we did so: Buck Mason is, quite simply, one of the best brands to get you ready for early fall (you’ll find more where that came from in the Shop By The Style Guide).

Buck Mason already makes plenty of stellar basics, like the coolest pocket tee on the market, and they’ve really done quite a number with the Buck Mason Double Weave Vintage Twill Shirt. It’s the kind of shirt you don’t have to think too hard about wearing, the kind of shirt that looks good with most anything, and the kind of shirt you can wear now and into early fall (and beyond) when layered properly. Start with, well, the basics, like a Buck Mason T-shirt for when the summer sun sets. Then, ramp things up come fall with a rugged Buck Mason henley. That versatility is part of what makes the Buck Mason Double Weave Vintage Twill Shirt an essential transitional shirt, but there’s much more where that came from.

There’s a laundry list of positive attributes that make the Buck Mason Double Weave Vintage Twill Shirt a standout in the world of durable and hard-wearing shirts. It’s built in the workshirt style, with tough front-button pockets for your everyday carry, no matter what the job calls for (even if your job involves storing a pocket notebook and a pen close at hand rather than small tools). The Buck Mason Double Weave Vintage Twill Shirt uses a double-faced cotton that blends two different cotton fabrics for a remarkably soft finish and feel on your skin. It’s substantial, but not too heavy, making it the perfect shirt to wear over a T-shirt right now (and come fall and eventually winter).

It’s available in four cool-as-can-be colors (like Flint shown above), each of which would look just right when worn alongside, say, expertly faded Buck Mason jeans (always a favorite style move of mine). The Buck Mason Double Weave Vintage Twill Shirt is also lightweight enough that you can wear a warmer base layer, like a thermal shirt, and then throw this tough workshirt over top of it. Make use of it on dewy summer mornings or chilly early fall nights, wear it to the office on a casual Friday or to a bonfire (don’t forget your favorite beer). Just make sure the well-made, solidly priced ($105 at Buck Mason) Buck Mason Double Weave Vintage Twill Shirt is part of your wardrobe this instant.
