James Waxed Snap Jacket
Story
An approachable waxed jacket with a lightweight lining and an easy snap front
Of all the waxed jackets our team behind Flint and Tinder have built over the years, the James Waxed Snap might just be the most approachable. It’s lighter, crafted from a time-tested waxed canvas, lined with comfortable Jaspe cotton in the body and nylon through the sleeves, and finished with snap hardware rather than buttons. A little less rugged than our bestselling Flannel-Lined Waxed Trucker, it's a clean silhouette that pairs easily with just about anything in your closet. It’s simple to dress up, not too slim or boxy, and free of unnecessary bells and whistles that can overcomplicate a look.
Features
- Made from Halley Stevensons Dry-Finish Waxed Cotton Canvas
- Re-waxable exterior for a lifetime of water resistance
- Two waist welt pockets and simple snap hardware for easy on-off
Sizing
- The James Waxed Snap Jacket has a traditional fit that hits right at your hip; take your normal jacket size
- If the sleeves feel a little longer out of the box, they will mold and crease for a personalized fit over time
- Not sure what size? Lay flat and measure one of your best-fitting vests or jackets and compare to the garment measurements below

Based at Baltic Works in Dundee, UK, they handle all dyeing and finishing under one roof.
