Flint and Tinder — American Made

Materials & Construction

The Flint and Tinder technical spec sheet

Every piece we produce runs through the same set of engineering standards. Here is what actually goes into a Flint and Tinder waxed trucker, a pair of 365 Pants, or a 10-Year Hoodie.

Shell / Spec 01

Martexin Original Wax Sailcloth

Our waxed trucker jackets use Martexin Original wax on a tightly woven cotton sailcloth. Water-resistant out of the box, it develops a personal wear pattern at the elbows, cuffs, and pockets — the reason a five-year-old jacket looks nothing like a new one.

Knit / Spec 02

14 oz Cotton Fleece for the 10-Year Hoodie

The 10-Year Hoodie is built from a heavyweight cotton-poly fleece, reinforced at every stress point: bar-tacked pockets, double-stitched cuffs, and a hood drawcord that survives a decade. Backed by our 10-Year Guarantee.

Fabric / Spec 03

365 Stretch Twill for Year-Round Wear

The 365 Pant and 365 Chino Pant run on a proprietary stretch twill that holds a crease, moves with you, and works from 30° to 90°F. Comfort-waist construction hides the elastic — no elastic look, all elastic performance.

Denim / Spec 04

Selvedge Denim, 13.5 oz

Our selvedge jeans and stretch selvedge denim use a mid-weight 13.5 oz fabric — heavy enough to fade beautifully, light enough to break in without a month of stiffness. Chain-stitched hem included on every pair.

Lining / Spec 05

Blanket & Flannel Linings

The Flannel-Lined Waxed Trucker Jacket and Wool-Lined Waxed Trucker Jacket layer brushed cotton flannel and boiled wool inside the waxed shell — engineered for daily use in the 20–50°F range without needing a mid-layer.

Origin / Spec 06

Designed and Cut in the USA

Core Flint and Tinder pieces — the Waxed Trucker Jacket, Hudson Jacket, and Waxed Rancher Jacket — are designed and cut in the United States. American manufacturing partners, real accountability, and a supply chain we can put in writing.

The Process

How a Flint and Tinder jacket gets built

From raw fabric to finished garment, here is the four-step production system behind every waxed trucker, 10-Year Hoodie, and pair of 365 Pants we ship.

01

Source

We spec fabric by weight, weave, and finish — Martexin wax cotton, Cone selvedge denim, 14 oz fleece — sourced from mills we can trace.

02

Pattern

Fits are engineered from a base block: regular through the shoulder, room to layer, and a length that works without stacking at the boot.

03

Sew

Reinforced stitch counts, bar-tacked stress points, and metal hardware — every waxed trucker and rancher jacket sewn in USA facilities.

04

Ship

Quality-checked, labeled with materials and origin, and shipped ready to wear. The 10-Year Hoodie ships with its written 10-year guarantee.

Owner Reviews

What Flint and Tinder customers actually say

★★★★★

“My Waxed Trucker Jacket is three winters in and looks better every year. The elbows and pockets have that lived-in patina you can’t fake.”

Marcus D.
Waxed Trucker Jacket
★★★★★

“The 10-Year Hoodie is legit the heaviest, best-constructed sweatshirt I own. Zero pilling after two years of near-daily wear.”

Ryan K.
10-Year Hoodie
★★★★★

“365 Pants replaced every chino in my closet. The stretch is invisible and they hold a crease through a full workday.”

Andrew P.
365 Pant
★★★★★

“Bought the Flannel-Lined Trucker for cold-weather commuting. It’s warm without being bulky and the wax finish sheds rain.”

Technical FAQ

Detailed answers about Flint and Tinder gear

What is the Flint and Tinder Waxed Trucker Jacket actually made of?

The Waxed Trucker Jacket is built on a tightly woven cotton sailcloth treated with Martexin Original Wax. The wax finish makes the shell water-resistant and wind-resistant while allowing the cotton to breathe. Interior finishing includes twin-needle seams at the shoulders and side panels, metal shank buttons, and a two-piece collar. It’s cut with room for a mid-layer like the 10-Year Hoodie without going oversized.

How do I re-wax a Flint and Tinder waxed jacket?

Every 12–24 months of regular wear — or when the shell stops beading water — we recommend re-waxing high-friction zones: cuffs, elbows, pocket flaps, and collar. Warm the jacket lightly with a hair dryer, apply a thin coat of Martexin (or comparable) wax with a clean cloth, then heat again to melt the wax evenly into the fibers. Full re-waxing is typically only needed once every few years.

What does the Flint and Tinder 10-Year Guarantee cover on the 10-Year Hoodie?

The 10-Year Hoodie ships with a written guarantee against manufacturing defects — seam failure, hardware breakage, and construction issues — for 10 years from purchase. Normal wear (fading, softening, minor pilling) is not a defect; it’s the point. If a genuine construction issue appears in that window, we repair or replace the hoodie.

What is 365 fabric in the 365 Pant and 365 Chino Pant?

365 is our proprietary stretch twill — a cotton-blend woven fabric engineered for year-round wear. It combines the structure and crease-holding of traditional chino cloth with roughly 2–4% mechanical stretch. The result: pants that look like classic chinos but move like performance pants, and hold up in temperatures from ~30°F under a base layer to ~90°F on their own.

What is the difference between the standard, flannel-lined, and wool-lined waxed truckers?

The standard Waxed Trucker Jacket runs unlined for shoulder-season wear (roughly 50–65°F). The Flannel-Lined Waxed Trucker Jacket adds a brushed cotton flannel body lining, extending it to 30–50°F. The Wool-Lined Waxed Trucker Jacket uses a heavier boiled wool interior for cold-weather use, roughly 15–40°F. Shell and silhouette stay identical across all three so the fit is consistent.

How is Flint and Tinder selvedge denim different from stretch selvedge denim?

Our standard Selvedge Jeans use a rigid 13.5 oz selvedge denim — no stretch, traditional break-in, deep fades over time. The Stretch Selvedge Denim swaps in a small percentage of elastane while keeping the selvedge edge and visual character intact. Rigid selvedge is the purist choice; stretch selvedge is for anyone who wears their jeans hard six days a week and wants a little give.

How should I size Flint and Tinder jackets and pants?

Jackets — the Waxed Trucker, Hudson, and Rancher — are cut for a regular, layerable fit. If you’re between sizes and plan to wear a hoodie underneath, size up; for a slimmer over-a-tee look, take your true size. On the 365 Pant and Selvedge Jeans, sizing is true-to-tag with a straight-through leg. Full measurements are listed on every product page in the collection.
