You have undoubtedly seen the Flannel-Lined Waxed Trucker Jacket from the Huckberry Flint and Tinder house brand, although you didn’t know it at the time.

This is Huckberry’s best-selling product. And it turns out to be the jacket of choice for Joel Miller, Pedro Pascal’s character in the HBO zombie-apocalypse series The last of us.

What makes it great?

Naturally, Huckberry sells the damn thing by the thousands. It is durable, classic in style, versatile and warm. And the mid-weight sailcloth fabric, waxed on both sides for extra insulation, only looks better the more you beat it.

In our Full Review of the Flannel Lined Waxed Trucker Jacketour tester called it “a flattering jacket with impressive functionality,” as well as excellent value, even at full price.

No wonder it sells out often, especially in the classic Field Tan color, worn by Pedro Pascal’s character in the HBO series.

The only sale of the year

The thing is, the flannel-lined waxed trucker isn’t sold out just yet. In fact, every color and size is fully stocked as the holidays approach…or as we sometimes call it at Equipment Patrol“oilcloth season”.

The best part? Huckberry included it in his sale on the entire sitewhich knocks almost $50 off this modern classic.

Just keep in mind that Huckberry’s sale ends at midnight on November 15, so don’t wait to pick one up.

According to the retailer, this will be the only sale on the flannel-lined waxed trucker jacket for the rest of the year. In other words, don’t expect to see it included in Black Friday or Cyber Week promotions.

Happy zombie hunting.
