Flint & Tinder's Fleece-Lined Waxed Trucker Jacket - Should I Mention the Zombies?
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
While a waxed trucker jacket review is a deviation from boots, you’ve got to wear something with your boots, and this is a worthy choice . It’s also in the HBO series “The Last of Us”. Check it out.

Who Am I?
I am a Management Consultant in real life but in my Bootlosophy channel, I make videos about boots and all things boot related. This channel posts reviews of boots, unboxing of new boots, and follow-up reviews, and in doing so, may explore the philosophy of the brands and makers as well as the collectors!
In this channel, I will give information found in my research about the brand, the construction, and the materials, but I will express my personal opinions about how I feel about the boots reviewed.
Full Disclosure
If any video is sponsored, I will declare it clearly in the video and in the description. Even if a video is sponsored, I will review the product openly and honestly giving you my personal opinion, warts and all, of the product.

You do an excellent job communicating. Not just boots, but probably anything you know. A great skill. Reviews are always focused and organized. I welcome your insights beyond boots if you find something cool.

Damn, that’s a compliment, thank you!
Maybe my all time favourite jacket. I have it in the 'forest' colour, which is a kind of grungy, green-brown. I did take a seam ripper to lose that gaudy label attached to inside pocket, but apart from that I love it. It's a lot softer than the three Rogue Territory supply jackets I have (two in waxed canvas, one in selvedge denim).
Great review, maybe the best for this jacket. I have one in the same size in coal. Love it. The more I wear it, the more comfortable it gets. For those wondering about size, I’m 5’9.5” with a 40.5” chest and roughly 17.5” shoulders and the MEDIUM is a perfect fit
Liked that you mixed it up with the jacket bc as you acknowledged, you have to wear something with the boots! Lol - Love the channel…all the way from Cincinnati, Ohio
Great review. Jacket looks good on you. I have been on the fence deciding to get the jacket. May get it this fall.
Good review Teik. It's not what we in the US would call fleece, it's flannel and called the flannel-lined jacket. I have the Havana color, it's about a year old. It's weathered quite nicely, probably better than what a tan one would if that's what someone is looking for. It's a good jacket, all your points are spot on. I find it good for 35F or so degrees up to say 50 and in light rain. My only quibble and it's a small one is the loose stitching.

While you're technically correct, the traditional difference between flannel and fleece is just the material used. Flannel is cotton and fleece is synthetic, like polyester. The Flint and Tinder would fall under the fleece category, but the company refers to it as flannel.
I think it's a terrific jacket, and I really like it. I got mine in moss green and use it a couple during a vacation. The media pocket was very useful to carry my smartphone, but yeah, it's has an odd shape. Mine is L, and yeah, I've noticed the sleeve are a little too long, sometimes it bothers me, but no so frequently to make it a deal-breaker. Thank you for the no-boot related video.
I just brought this jacket 2 weeks ago. Great minds think a like. I can’t use for a few more months because I’m still in summer months.
Hey Teik, I was about to ask you for that jacket 😂 It looks amazing!!
Superb! keep posting none boots reviews I am new subscriber and find in really helpful.
Hello there - excellent work as always…would appreciate such non boot reviews here & there…
I’ve recently strayed away from the “lumberjack waxed canvas worker dude” look. I think I’ll be buying a Thursday leather jacket which fits me a bit more nowadays.
Good stuff! I have the Rogue Territory and like the slimmer fit a lot.
Even though you do not fancy the shorter nature of trucker jackets, that one looks good on you. 👍
Very nice jacket Teik and great review. I've hankered for one for a while but I think I'll wait until the $AU is a bit better against the $US. $
One of my all time favourite jackets, it looks good on you. I had to order a bigger size to get a more comfortable fit.

I have the Outlaw. It's ok. Probably gonna buy the Flint & Tinder or the Tom Beckbe jacket. I like Kuhl but anything they make an American brand probably makes better. Kinda like Thursday boots. You can do better.
Badass jacket Teik. I have the exact same one. I get so many comments on it when I wear it. I also have the Havana Waxed Shirt Jacket with the orange lining. It is also a great piece.

Nice jacket!
Do you think you will start a jacket collection to go with the boot collection I know that's how I am
Have seen the Ship John Willis Jacket yet ? You may like it but it’s long wait for it right now.
Great review but I agree about length of sleeves. I think that would put me off.
Hi Teik, I have been eyeing an unlined version of this jacket for a while now. I currently live at the equator and this is going to be my first article in waxed canvas. The unlined version for me comes with a bonus costing a lot less at USD228. I have also lived in Perth for 6 years so I should have an idea how the weather is there. I would like your opinion on how your lined version holds up in Perth's weather across the year. Do you think it'll be madness to have this in a hot country?

@@Bootlosophy Well, that sounds like it'll only be good for a night time water resistant jacket if I do get it. The good news is even if I don't end up getting it, I found a 10% coupon that still works (HBGT10) for now and Huckleberry will ship international for free for any order over USD198. It means the lowest I can get the unlined trucker waxed jacket is at USD 205.20 with free shipping. So some in the audience might want to take advantage of that.
I have been eyeballing these for 2 years now.

How do you handle the one asymmetric breast pocket? To me it would feel one boot with a cap toe and the other without?

@@Bootlosophy That's good to know. Thanks for the quick reply. I'm really enjoying your channel. As a result of your reviews and other reviews I have just ordered my first pair of Grant Stone Diesel boots and Thursday sneakers.
