I have several waxed jackets and they cannot be beat. I live in California so the weather is pretty fair, but they are excellent when It rains. Also prefer them over leather when I ride my motorcycle because they are not nearly as heavy. I recommend everybody have at least one waxed jacket in their closet.
Right on! In sweden we have wet weather from autumn to spring and it also rains alot in summer, This jacket is the best workwear i've ever had. Going on one year now!
@dannyjones9580 fjällräven dont make workweak, just hiking gear. Use they are pretty good and its nice alot of the gear is waxed even tho they are not totalty waterproof. This is just very tough fabric and i think having alot of linseed oil is the best since it oxidises and hardens within the fabric making it lore durable and not Rubbing the wax off over time
If you work in sub zero and around freezing outside in rain or wet conditions, the extra weight and lost flexibility is not problem. :) If you'r not strong you can choose a goretex jacket instead. This is a rough jacket for rough enivorments, logging, mechanics etc. works well.. Use it everyday outsid.
It makes the jacket extremely tough, waterproof and it does not get dirty since the fibers don't suck up any moisture. Armies around the world used to make tarps this way. This jacket is perfect for the winter half of the year. Wind rain and snow proof, you can just walk through a thorn bush and not get snagged! Cheers

@@Biffsteki thank you! 👍🏼😊
For real i think waxing for Carhartt canvas jacket not very suitable, because they are too thick and it will lose the flexibility when people working.
