Description
Lightweight but with a noticeable waxed character, this British Millerain 6oz waxed cotton is a brilliant choice when you want the performance and look of traditional wax cloth without the weight of a heavier coating. Made from 100% cotton, it has a smooth, supple handle with a generous wax finish that gives the surface real character and encourages water to bead readily. The green hue is a deep, muted outdoorsy shade, sitting somewhere between dark olive and earthy khaki.
At 6oz, this is particularly good for layering pieces where a heavier 8oz or 9oz waxed cotton could feel like too much. Think lightweight field jackets, overshirts, shackets, utility jackets, gilets and practical outdoor layers worn over a shirt, sweatshirt or knitwear. The waxed surface will naturally develop creases and marks with handling and wear, adding to its character over time. Proper waxed-cotton attitude, just in a lighter package.
⚠️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.

Care & washing
Allow 2-10% shrinkage to be on the safe side. Wash the fabric before making up, in the same way you'll wash the finished make, drying methods included, so it settles once rather than after it's sewn.
Test a sample area first to find the most suitable way to wash it. We can't accept liability for fabrics washed or treated incorrectly.
