The Story
Bees Waxed Canvas 10 oz.
Waxed Canvas is a rugged, water resistant fabric that has stood the test of time. Originally used for sails, workwear, and military gear. It has evolved into a premium material for bags, jackets and outdoor accessories. Its combination of durability, sustainability and vintage charm makes it a favourite among adventurers, fashion enthusiasts and Eco-conscious consumers.
What is Waxed Canvas?
Waxed canvas is a tightly woven cotton fabric treated with a beeswax. This treatment creates a water repellent barrier while allowing the material to remain breathable. Over time, the wax wears unevenly, giving each item a unique patina that tells its own story.
Key Benefits of Waxed Canvas
- Durability: Resistant to tears and abrasions, waxed canvas lasts for decades.
- Weather Resistance: The wax coating repels rain, snow and wind. Making it ideal for outdoor use.
- Sustainability: Made from natural materials (cotton + wax), it is biodegradable.
- Timeless Aesthetic: Its rugged, vintage look improves with age.
- Low Maintenance: Occasional re-waxing every few years keeps it functional - no machine washing needed.
Caring for Waxed Canvas
Spot Clean with a damp cloth
Re-Wax sparingly using specialized wax (Otter Wax) to restore water resistance
Air Dry away from direct heat to prevent wax from melting.
Waxed Canvas should never be ironed.
