CARE
This is made using waxed cotton from Halley Stevenson, who have been producing high quality cloth in Dundee since 1864.
A classic British heritage cloth, waxed cotton is water and wind resistant, but also breathes well. This makes it perfect for everyday wear, be that in a rain mac or a handbag.
Traditional waxed cotton should not be machine or hand washed with any detergents, as this will strip the wax coating off and may lead to uneven marks in the cloth. Kate Sheridan recommends sponge cleaning the material with water, and mud/dirt should always be left to dry before being brushed off.
Waxed Cotton cloth can be re-waxed after heavy use or when needed.
