I absolutely love this jacket that I actually won!!!! I have several waxed jackets and this beats the f+t imho. I like the fit better and the details it offers. Since I'm addicted to waxed truckers, I just ordered a Design waxed jacket and I really like it as well! Lined pockets on that one!
Going to purchase one of these next week, torn between the dark olive or navy or even charcoal. Obviously Thursday’s boots and shoes are great, but it’s underrated how quality their other products are like their jackets, and bags. Picked up a black suede jacket from them and a really good commuter bag. Overall, such a great company for an extremely competitive price.
Awesome, Lee! I bought mine the second it went live and it's a really good effort from Thursday. Good luck to all the entrants! I do find the smooth sleeve lining to be good and bad. I hate the feel on my arms for some reason, so I have to wear mine with long sleeves only, which isn't a bad thing! Nice to have option! :)
I also purchased a - Thursday Field Jacket. Handsome jacket fully lined. Also corduroy on inside hip & cuffs. I am 5' 7" (170cm) Tall & 165 lbs. (75kg) Weight. Size - M - was a perfect fit in body length & sleeve length. Enough room to layer. I hopes this helps someone re their sizing.
I really like mine even though I won't wear it much before next fall. I been rocking waxed cotton motorcycle suits since 1969 and the material is quite rugged. I make a mixture of paraffin and mineral spirits to retreat this fabric. Smear the compound on the outside, turn the garment inside out and toss it in a clothes dryer for 5 minutes. Comes out looking like new with better-than-new water resistance.
Nice review, I haven't tried the Thursday jacket but it seems like a good one. The thing I wish these companies would do is have better interior pockets. Iron & Resin got it right with a nice set of usable pockets. Most waxed jackets seem to have one small no-close pocket inside that doesn't feel very secure for putting say... my wallet or keys in.
That's true. I forgot to mention that the interior pocket of this one is a bit bigger than on other waxed jackets. Definitely a plus, but for storage capacity but not much more secure.
Oh man, there's a lot more detail that goes into the Thursday Waxed Canvas Jacket than I originally thought. I did consider getting an olive one at some point but in the end I passed Thursdays and settled for an unlined jacket from Flint and Tinder due to my climate. I did however drop a suggestion thingamajig to Thursday suggesting an unlined version so hopefully one day. My unlined purchase has been serving me well from all the rain I've been using it in. Edit : On the Thursday's fit, if I recall correctly, the original version of the Thursday's jacket has a more tight fit. The athletic fit is the second version after customerr feedback.
I think it would be very helpful to potential buyers - If all reviewers would state their height & weight & size of jacket.(so many don't, you do) Even if you are not that exact height & weight, is far more helpful than subjective opinions about the jacket IMHO.
Thanks Derek. Flint and Tinder uses models of various heights and weights and displays what size they’re wearing (on their waxed trucker sales page) and I’ve always appreciated that.
Just stumbled on to your channel. I bought a Belstaff (road master) wax cotton jacket and now I’m hooked. My wife hates it because I can’t wash them😂😂. I subbed and look forward to more of your videos. Hope I win the jacket!
@@StrayReviews oh that’s awesome thank you very much. My other new obsession has been redwing boot, iron Rangers. I’ll have to see if you have any videos on those.
You can make up a mixture of paraffin and mineral spirits to retreat your suit. Looks like you have smeared your suit in snot, but turn it inside out and toss it in a dryer for about 5 minutes and it comes out looking new with better-than-new water resistance.
I have the Flint & Tinder waxed jacket from Huckberry. It's one of my favorite pieces I own. It's $298 and made in the USA. However, the Thursday jackets are really nice as well.
Not yet. Hopefully by the end of the day tomorrow at the latest. I’ll be reaching out to the winner via email and announcing them on my community tab. Be sure to add contact@strayreviews.com to your safe senders list in case it’s you.

Excellent! It’s been too warm here to wear mine, but I love the details they built into this.

For sure. Tough to decide though!

Yes! I never thought of that since I’ve only worn it with long sleeves. Thanks Patrick!
I agree but do not anticipate wearing mine with short sleeves.
I also purchased a - Thursday Field Jacket.
Handsome jacket fully lined. Also corduroy on inside hip & cuffs.
I am 5' 7" (170cm) Tall & 165 lbs. (75kg) Weight.
Size - M - was a perfect fit in body length & sleeve length.
Enough room to layer. I hopes this helps someone re their sizing.
We’re nearly the same size!

Ah, very nice!
Very cool jacket. Thank you for sharing! I love cotton lining in jackets. Interior pockets are a must for me 😊
I agree. The lining on this one is particularly soft.
Lining of some sort is necessary with waxed cotton fabric to keep it from staining the clothes underneath it.
Nice. Love everything that Thursday puts out
Same here. I don’t think I’ve ever picked up anything from them that I didn’t like.
I have two of these jackets (Black and Dark Olive) and they are great. Looking forward to getting one in the navy blue.
Very nice! I love the look of that navy blue!

Nice! I love it when companies listen to their customers. I think every brand should!
I can’t wait for your comparison video between the flint and tinder and this Thursday boot wax trucker jacket. Great video as always!
Thanks so much!
You can guarantee when he does one, Lee will do it very well!
@rockmtnstyle did one last March and it's really helpful.
I have an Orvis waxed vest that also uses that Stevenson company…definitely good stuff.👍
Agreed. 👍

Looks pretty solid, do you like that it’s lined over being unlined?
Yep. Pretty happy with this one.
Waxed cotton fabric will stain the garments underneath it without some sort of lining.
Great review. Entered the giveaway, a medium would be perfect!
Excellent!

Thanks Jo! I love your Pocket 3 videos. Subbed back.

@jostalking I definitely do. 👍

Hey Lee, you fell out of my rotation somehow so it was great to watch this review. Awesome work as usual!
Thanks so much Justin! Glad to be back in!
Since I've started watching your videos Mr..I like how the way your clothing fit you..this jacket is no exception
Thanks Zwai!
great review. I keep seeing this style/texture jacket and never knew what it was called. Thanks!
Great! Thanks Tomas!
I have the Flint & Tinder waxed jacket from Huckberry. It's one of my favorite pieces I own. It's $298 and made in the USA. However, the Thursday jackets are really nice as well.
Yep, both great options. 👍
This jacket looks awesome, looks like competition for the Flint and Tinder! I am also 5'8" 165, so the Medium sounds perfect!
Medium twins! 👍👍
I'd like mine in XLT, please! 😁
😅
I like the henley that you were wearing in your video. What brand is it? Is it cream color or white?
Believe it or not it's an old henley I bought at Target several years ago. It's a cream color (off-white).
The only thing I noticed is that it's not as waxed as the others and doesn't repeal rain as great as the others.
Yes, it does seem to have a lighter wax treatment.
Great review. But what size should I choose… what’s your hight?
I’m 5’ 8” and I like the way the medium fits.
I've near wear a waxed jacket before, i'm wondering if this jacket is good for tropical climate ?
I don't see why not, but I would say it's a matter of personal preference.
Very cool!
👍👍
Leather or waxed jacket. What looks better ?
Such a tough call. I was all about the leather until I started wearing waxed jackets.
@@StrayReviewsdo they look like leather at least , from a aesthetic
@@anthony99900 I think so. Mine is the Arizona Adobe and it looks more like a heavily corrected lambskin.
Was the winner announced yet? I checked my email but thought I'd ask.

@@kcswoopCongratulations! Jealous, I can't lie lol.
What’s your height?
