Product Description for Oxford Holwell Wet-Waxed Cotton Jacket
Embrace the perfect blend of traditional styling and contemporary design with the Oxford Holwell Wet-Waxed Cotton Jacket. This classic-styled jacket utilizes traditional materials and manufacturing techniques, yet beneath its old-world look lies a hidden layer of modern technology.
The Holwell jacket is crafted by British Millerain, a company with a rich history dating back to when goods were transported by wind-powered ships. The same waxed cotton used for the sailors' protective clothing is now expertly incorporated into this jacket, ensuring durability and weather resistance.
Oxford's designers have honored the heritage of this material by using traditional tailoring methods for the outer garment. Pleated pockets lie flat when empty but expand when needed, and the collar and removable belt are designed in three dimensions for a perfect fit. The jacket's construction features labor-intensive triple-stitching in key areas for both aesthetic appeal and enhanced protection.
The result is a jacket that offers high protection, classic style, and modern comfort. The entire jacket is CE approved to level A, ensuring it meets high safety standards.
