The history of waxed cotton dates back to Scottish mills, which wove sails for the British clipper fleet. The Black Watch tartan was originally used for military purposes, primarily camouflage, thus leading to the use of more subdued colors, predominantly navy blue and green with black in the over plaid.

This particular Black Watch Waxed Canvas uses an emulsified wax finish and is lightweight and weather repellent. Similar to our leather items, the waxed canvas will patina over time, making it a completely unique item.
