Iron & Resin reintroduced the Scout Jacket, a three-season outer layer featuring 12oz waxed cotton canvas by British Millerain (or Alaska Waxed Cotton Canvas), a 9oz Klamath flannel interior, and a REISSA waterproof, breathable membrane. The piece was built in a trucker silhouette that blends rugged utility with urban tailoring and is offered in Oak Brown, Charcoal, and Oil Tan.

Functional details include a heavy-duty Talon #10 zip, custom I&R shank buttons, corduroy collar, and multiple exterior and interior pockets, including a zippered upper chest pocket and a small phone pocket. The REISSA membrane is sandwiched between the shell and the lining for wind and water resistance without bulk.

For consumers this jacket delivers season-spanning protection and vintage aesthetics, useful for commuters and outdoor enthusiasts who value durable materials and modern weatherproofing. Its mix of heritage fabric and technical membrane reflects the ongoing trend of utility-driven, style-forward outerwear.
