Cold Smoke Co Saltire Waxed Trucker Jackets

We’re not going to lie, we’ve got quite a big soft spot for trucker jackets here at Coolector HQ and we’re always pretty excited when one of our favourite apparel brands releases an item of clothing we can genuinely be excited about and that’s exactly the position we’re in with this excellent looking Cold Smoke Co Saltire Waxed Trucker Jacket. This glorious looking piece of outerwear is the perfect jacket for spring and colder summer days and it’s the latest piece from the Californian brand, Cold Smoke Co.

The Cold Smoke Co Saltire Waxed Trucker Jacket comes in two different colourways – these being camel and dark olive – and they both have different aesthetic impacts with the camel being a more stand out piece of outerwear and the dark olive better suited to those who like to keep their jackets more understated. This fantastic release from Cold Smoke come has a price tag of $395 which is good considering the quality materials and craftsmanship that have gone into this superb looking jacket.

Built For Harsh Conditions

Needless to say, the life of trucker is one that they need to be ready for any weather conditions and that’s where the versatility and robust performance of trucker jackets comes from. This is especially true with the Cold Smoke Co Saltire Waxed Trucker Jackets which came about when the California apparel brand ran with the idea of making a piece of outerwear that was rugged enough to throw on in the harshest conditions, and refined enough to wear on a date.

The Cold Smoke Co Saltire Waxed Trucker Jacket ($395) is crafted from Halley Stevensons® waxed canvas which is amongst the best in the business and will provide the perfect protective outer layer whatever the weather throws at you. This super durable Scottish made waxed canvas has been made at The Baltic Works factory in Dundee, since 1864 and they are known the world over for their quality. The beauty of waxed cotton is its robustness and longevity and the wax finish adjusts to ambient temperature to be softer/more breathable in warm weather and stiffer/more wind proof in cold conditions.

Aesthetically unparalleled, the wax used in this top class jacket from Cold Smoke Co naturally develops a patina over time and with each passing wear and it will begin to show a distinct character unique to your lifestyle and the adventures you’ve worn it on. Comfort is the name of the game with the Saltire Waxed Trucker Jacket and the body is lined with a plush American made Berber shearling, and the arms with a silky quilted taffeta. For a contemporary look, it is detailed with zippers custom made in California, authentic British made Brisbane Moss moleskin trim at collar, and sleeve cuffs, and Cold Smoke’s signature matte black logo snaps.

All-Season Staple

If you’re anything like us here at Coolector HQ then you’ll want a jacket that is ready for all seasons and can be thrown on come rain or shine. The Cold Smoke Co Saltire Waxed Trucker Jacket is exactly that and it’s versatile performance and sensational comfort really do set it apart from the competition in the running to be your next piece of outerwear. Stylish and robust and made from the finest materials available, this might just become one of Cold Smoke Co’s most successful pieces to date.

Coming in just shy of $400, the Cold Smoke Co Saltire Waxed Trucker Jacket is obviously an investment but one that is worth making because not only are you getting a jacket that is effortlessly cool and can be worn all year round but also a piece of outerwear of heritage quality that can be passed on from one generation to the next.
