James Waxed Snap Jacket - Tall
James Waxed Snap Jacket - Tall
Story
The refined younger brother of our iconic waxed trucker
Out of all the hardwearing staples that Flint and Tinder has designed over the years, this one might just be the most approachable and versatile. Lighter weight, built for year-round wear, and a touch more refined than its older brother—the Flannel Lined Waxed Trucker—the James Snap Waxed Jacket is a clean silhouette that is easy to wear 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
- Tall version of the James with extra length down the front and longer sleeves
- Re-waxable exterior for a lifetime of water-resistance
- 2 waist welt pockets
- Metal snap closures for easy on and off
- Adjustable cuff snaps that seal out the elements
- Interior welt pocket for hidden storage
- Hanging locker loop for quick hang-ups
- Wearer’s right chest welt pocket
Sizing
- The Tall Fit has a traditional silhouette (like our classic James Waxed Snap Jacket) but built with a longer body length and longer sleeves
- Ideal if you're over 6 feet tall or have a longer torso
- If the sleeves feel a little longer out of the box, they will mold and crease for personalized fit over time
- For the best personal fit, compare the measurements of one of your best-fitting shirts to the garment measurements below
Garment Measurements
| M | L | XL | XXL | 3XL | 4XL | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chest | 45 | 47½ | 50 | 52½ | 55 | 57½ |
| Shoulder | 19 | 19⅝ | 20¼ | 20⅞ | 21½ | 22⅛ |
| Body Length | 29 | 29¾ | 30½ | 31¼ | 32 | 32¾ |

All measurements are in inches.
How to Measure - Chest: Measure straight across from edge to edge, starting 1" below the armhole, multiply by 2 - Shoulder: Measure straight across from shoulder seam to shoulder seam. Again, it’s easiest to measure across the back of the garment - Body Length: Start at the top of the shoulder where it meets the neck seam, and measure straight down to the hem - Sleeve Length: Start at the center of the back of the neck, measure straight across to the shoulder seam, and then follow the edge of the garment to the cuff. Pro tip: it’s easiest to measure across the back of the sleeve
