Reproofing your garments is easier than you think and will restore them to just about a newly bought condition.

1. Cleaning Accumulated Dirt, Debris, or Residues

• Collect needed cleaning items: cold water and a sponge or soft cloth.
• Bring the garment to room temperature if stored in a colder area.
• Find a sturdy work surface (such as a table) and place a plastic sheet or table cloth over it for protection.
• Lay the jacket or trousers flat on the work surface. If it's a hat, just place it upright on the surface.
• Dip the sponge or cloth in cold water, squeeze out excess, and gently wipe down the garment.
• Go over the entire surface area to give a quick rinse, removing any dirt, debris, or residues trapped in the fabric. Particularly pay attention to get into any seams, creases, and areas of most wear and tear.

2. Applying Fresh Wax to Reproof

• Prepare wax that comes in a tin container by placing the tin in a bowl or basin of water. Water needs to be hot enough to melt and soften into a smooth wax.
• Use a clean, sturdy work surface, covered with any needed protective plastic or tablecloth, and preferably in a well-ventilated area.
• Place the cleaned jacket or trousers flat and spread out on the work surface.
• Dip the sponge or soft cloth in the melted wax and work an even layer over the garment surface to provide a coat. Pay close attention to any seams and creases, worn-out areas, or areas that are drier.
• Make sure to cover the entire jacket or trousers and be careful not to apply wax over regular cloth surfaces, including the insides of pockets, any lining material, or corduroy used for collars, elbows, knees, and cuffs.
• Hang your garment in a warm place to dry thoroughly overnight.
• Extra tips: 1) Do not use the treated garment immediately to avoid spreading moist wax onto contact surfaces. 2) Use a hair-dryer in a low-heat setting and run over the newly waxed or reproofed garment to help speed up the drying process and settle the wax into an even coverage.

A truly versatile garment. Choose from an unpadded wax jacket, a quilted gilet or adjoin the both to suit what the day brings you.

So whether the weather is cold, hot or cool during your outdoor pursuit, your Greendale Jacket’s got you covered.

Made in Britain using the finest wax fabric available - British Millerain Waxed Cotton.

They have been developing fabrics for over 140 years in the UK and have stuck by their values - to create fabrics ‘which would suit a variety of clothing requirements, from the rigours of life in the armed forces to the demands of country pursuits’.

And yes, British Millerain fabric was actually used by troops due to its durability and weather resistance.

We intend to uphold their values when creating wax jackets from their world-renowned fabric. Combined with our 40 years experience designing and manufacturing wax jackets - we are excited to bring you our most premium wax jacket to date.

The jacket comes with detachable inside padding, which can be worn on its own as a quilted gilet during hot days.

It can be reattached inside using the inner zips to create a padded wax jacket. Along with the elasticated cuffs, hand warmer pockets and wind-flap - this is perfect for the extra chilly days. During the warmer days, when you still require the ruggedness and waterproofness of a wax jacket but without the excess weight, remove the inside gilet for an unpadded wax jacket. Ventilation eyelets under arms and pockets make this jacket breathable to release moisture, keeping you as dry as possible. Being saturated with wax means it is also showerproof, along with the detachable waxed hood - you’ll be kept dry during the typical rainy British weather.

The inner lining is made from 100% cotton with a matching tartan check finish.

This classic style has great practicality due to the fabric used but has no shortage of style. If you are looking for a vintage look, our Greendale Jacket fits the bill with its excellent craftsmanship - offering an aesthetic look. Corduroy trimmings around the collar, pockets and sleeves finish the garment with class. We have matching hats available if you prefer removing the detachable hood. Matching flat caps, baseball caps and wide-brim hats available.
