Fourteen Forests Wax Cotton

Light, smooth and unusually dry to the touch, this British Millerain 6oz waxed cotton is a very different beast from the heavier, more obviously waxy cloths. Made from 100% cotton, the wax finish is so subtle you can barely feel it, leaving the surface clean and smooth with an almost shirting-like handle. The green khaki shade has that practical outdoorsy look without feeling too traditional, while the finish gives useful water resistance for changeable weather.

The lighter 6oz weight makes this particularly interesting for overshirts, shackets, lightweight field jackets, utility shirts and layering pieces, as well as lighter gilets and outdoor accessories. We particularly like the idea of a proper outdoorsy button-through shirt worn over a T-shirt or knitwear: practical enough for walking and weekends outside, but light and supple enough to layer comfortably. It gives you the character and weather resistance of waxed cotton without feeling as though you're wearing the garden shed.

⚠️Due to the nature of this fabric we are unable to provide refunds on any returned wax cotton. Therefore we recommend you purchase either a sample where possible or half a metre quantities to ensure you are completely happy with your fabric.

The roll price is £30 for postage. However, if you’re happy for it to be folded please proceed as normal. By folding it will come with crease marks on the folds.

• Please allow 2-10% shrinkage on fabrics to be on the safe side. Wash before making up in the same manner as you would with subsequent washes (including drying methods)
• Please test a sample area first to find the most suitable way to wash your chosen fabrics, as we cannot accept liability for fabrics washed or treated incorrectly.
• Whilst every effort is made, we cannot guarantee that the colours you see on your screen are accurate because every screen shows colours differently.
