We offer a re-waxing and repair/alteration service for your waxed cotton jackets such as Barbour, Belstaff, Filson,  Outback Trading Co., Fjällräven and more, to get them back in action as your favourite foul weather outerwear.

Re-waxing with brand-specific proprietary wax will make it look almost like new and reset its original water repellent properties. 

When do you know your waxed cotton coat needs to be re-proofed?  If the jacket looks and feels dry, and water is absorbed (not beading and rolling off), it's time to give it some love.

You can Buy Barbour Thornproof re-proofing dressing on-line, or ask us and we will look after the whole process, returning it all ready to go.

We charge $80+HST for jacket rewaxing in our workshop (if only one coat of wax is required), plus shipping if applicable. Please wipe down your jacket with a damp sponge or cloth and let dry prior to sending it to us.

Contact Us for more details on the nature of the re-proofing or repairs needs, or make an appointment to bring your jacket in for a consultation.

Waxed Black Watch Tartan or solid colour British Millerain waxed cotton available for patches--best colour match used.
