When it comes to timeless apparel that effortlessly blends rugged style with all-weather functionality, Taylor Stitch never disappoints. Their Deck Jacket in Khaki Dry Wax ($298) is the latest addition to their lineup that’s ready to take on the elements in style. Inspired by the sea-beaten coasts of Northern California, this versatile jacket is designed to look better the harder it’s worn, making it a perfect fit for anyone who appreciates durable, adventure-ready gear that only gets better with age.

The Deck Jacket’s outer shell is made from 5.5-oz. 100% organic cotton with a dry wax herringbone finish. This dry wax treatment not only gives the jacket a rugged, broken-in look but also makes it wind and water repellent—an absolute must for anyone looking to brave unpredictable weather. While the exterior means business, the interior of the Deck Jacket is where the comfort truly shines. The 10.5-oz. wool-dominant liner is blended with 30% nylon to enhance durability while keeping you warm and snug. Meanwhile, the recycled nylon sleeve lining ensures that slipping the jacket on and off is effortless, even over layers.

Taylor Stitch is all about the details, and the Deck Jacket has them in spades. YKK two-way separating zippers with a snap closure storm flap keep the elements at bay, while metal eyelets under the armholes provide welcome breathability. A sturdy storm flap and throat latch ensure you’re ready to face down fierce winds, and the waist snap adjustment tabs at the back allow you to fine-tune the fit. These details not only enhance the functionality but also lend the jacket a touch of old-school workwear charm that feels right at home in any rugged wardrobe.

Storage options are plentiful, with a single chest pocket featuring a snap flap closure, two lower welt hand-warmer pockets with brushed organic cotton pocket bags for added comfort, and an interior chest pocket with a hidden snap closure. The pockets are all thoughtfully placed to provide ample room for stowing essentials, whether you’re heading out on a coastal adventure or simply navigating the urban landscape.

The Taylor Stitch Deck Jacket is built using double-needle felled construction, ensuring it stands up to whatever you throw at it. Finished in an understated khaki colour, this jacket exudes an effortlessly cool vibe, making it a reliable addition to any outfit, from weekend hikes to casual outings. Best of all, its organic cotton dry wax finish gives it a patina that grows more distinctive with every wear—a jacket that tells a story, your story.

For those who are after a no-nonsense, hard-wearing, and stylish outer layer, the Taylor Stitch Deck Jacket in Khaki Dry Wax is hard to beat. It’s a piece of apparel that embodies the spirit of adventure, quality craftsmanship, and rugged elegance—a jacket that’s ready to tackle whatever comes your way while keeping you looking sharp.
