Got this jacket this past fall. I have thoroughly loved it since. It was way more affordable than filson, Barbour, or similar brands, but of equal quality. It layers well for colder weather and the game pocket in the back is great for a beanie, gloves, or baseball cap. I honestly couldn't be happier. I think I wear the jacket every day, though that may change for the summer. I'll probably rewax it this summer though just to refresh it.

Stoked you’ll be making more videos! I need all the Huckberry content!!

Please never change the "recipe" for these products. The quality and longevity of all the F&T stuff is so impressive.

I have this jacket while its nice jacket there is one major issue i have with it, that I almost returned. Its the collar! Its waxed on top and flannel under which makes no sense. When its cold or rainy, you pop the collar to shield from wind and you get cold wax against your skin which feels very uncomfortable, meanwhile the flannel is then exposed to the elements. I wish flannel was on top. Outside of that its nice coat, does run slim so not for layering which I like, because I run hot so like slim profile. I got it in sale so I kept it but I would have returned otherwise.

My brain says the trucker jacket, my heart says the hudson

Been on the fence btwn pulling the trigger on either a Flint & Tinder or a Barbour waxed jacket for a about 2 yrs now for a 1st and perhaps only waxed jacket. Who knows, I might change my mind and try both brands eventually. The Hudson jacket is a good addition to the Flint and Tinder line up because regardless of how cool they look, trucker jackets aren’t for everyone 😆.

Was going to pull the trigger on this and actually let it double as a bird hunting jacket. Two bits to adjust to make it that next level of functional where I'd buy it: 1) something softer on the collar so that, when popped, you have something warm against your neck instead of cold and rough, 2) slick sleeves so it's easy on and off with a sweater/fleece/long sleeved shirt-when I have to grab my cuff to get a shirt sleeve through a jacket sleeve I always end up leaving that jacket on the hook more times that putting it on. That said - quality, look, durability, materials...all so high. Want to buy this jacket if it had those couple adjustments

Could you make a video on the wool-lined version of the waxed trucker jacket? I would love to see you outline the difference in the outer shell used, the looser fit etc. Thanks Huckberry!

Wish you guys would have mentioned what colors you were showing in the video. Wondering if you guys might want to do a video showing the various color ways of your waxed lineup in different lighting like indoor and outdoor bright and sunny and dusky dark etc. Great vid of a great product. I actually have a field tan flannel lined trucker delivering any minute! Needless to say I can not wait!😜

I own a M size of the trucker jacket, and it fits me perfectly. Can I just go for the M size for this as well? Of course I’m not gonna layer like crazy. Thank you.

In the far future when the time arrives to re-wax the jacket, which wax should be used, or does it not matter? I just received one for Christmas amd was curious to know. Thanks!

How does this jacket work for women in terms of sizing? I always tend to like men’s jackets better than women’s and I have been looking for a jacket just like this for a long time - but sizing and fit are always a gamble. I tend to wear small W jackets but do have fairly broad shoulders so sometimes need a W medium. Any feedback is greatly appreciated- thanks!

My wife just bought me one of these and I'm already loving it. Is there a particular product or brand that you recommend for re-waxing?

What color jacket is he wearing in the video? I’m trying to decide between tan and “Forrest”. Thanks!

What is the weight of the canvas on this jacket? You mention it is the same as the flannel lined trucker, which is 7oz, but there is no mention on the jacket page of the canvas weight.

Ben, I am about the same size 6'1 and 220 give or take :) I'd like to see how your L wears on your vs your XL please. thanks

Is Field tan a new color for the Hudson?

Looking to restock these soon? They look Great but hardly any in stock

Hello ! Obviously it is a perfect jacket, however I have a question, it is suited for winter or fall. Can we have more information about the isolation ? Thanks.

Will the Havana work with a dark burgundy boot color?

What color is the one on the left side of the table in the video

What do you guys use to rewax it?

From pictures the F&T Trucker looks more tailored and modern/ tighter to the body than the Hudson but she’s saying the opposite. Is that right?

In the video, is he wearing the “Forrest” or “tan” color?

Can you guys make a jacket that looks like the brown jacket worn by Arnold Schwarzenegger in Predator (1987)

Will it make me as cool as Joel from the last of us 😂 (awesome jacket btw)❤❤

@huckberry What color is Ben wearing in this video?

Do you think Flint and Tinder will make a wool-lined version of the Hudson Jacket?

The amount of nodding in this is reassuring

Word to the men that are built like men; I don't know who they are using as the "model" for sizing on these jackets, but it's safe to assume that they're "men" (in the loosest sense of the word) who've spent their lives avoiding any kind of physical exertion. This jacket isn't cut or sized for someone who has reasonable upper body mass-if you have a spoon chest, the back of an 11-year-old video gamer, or noodle arms...get you some. All that said, the jacket is exceptionally nice. Good quality materials, and excellent fit and finish.
