Waxed cotton jackets are iconic for their heritage as countryside and hunting clothing staples. Our waxed cotton gilet is made from a 8oz cotton fabric that is treated with beeswax that goes in between the fibers. This treatment makes the cotton water and wind-resistant and as a bonus it makes for a great patina, meaning that it develops aesthetically pleasing creases and color permutations as it ages. 

The gilet is lined with cotton material and finished with Gerber and Co branded press studs on the pockets, the sides and the middle front with a zip underneath. The gilet has adjustable tabs with press studs at the bottom sides. The collar is lined with corduroy material. It has a small pocket with a zip on the left side chest. The two pockets are also hand pockets.

Clean: spot clean the wax cotton material with a damp cloth with mild soap. Wipe off the excess soap with a damp cloth and dry the wet area completely with a hair dryer or wait to dry by itself. Put a small amount of beeswax or pure lanolin on the area and heat the area again with a hair dryer that the bees wax melts into the fibers again. Do not wash the garment in hot water as ti will remove the wax feel.
