what happens when you can’t afford a waxed jacket from flint and tinder or filson? you make your own! if you’re not familiar with waxed jackets, @Cowboy Crust has a great video on the origins of waxed jackets. i think they’re the perfect blend of style and function as the wax makes the fabric more durable, water resistant, and wind proof, while also developing a unique patina over time as you wear it. i’m using a more pasty wax from Barbour, but there are many different types of wax all the way from liquid to bar form. one might work better than the other for your specific project. (also, if you’re using this barbour wax, i highly recommend to get two cans for a jacket as only one left a couple of patches a bit dry!) happy waxing :) 🏷️:
