Waxed cotton fabric

It was originally popularized among sailors. Their clothes and gear had to be made of a tough, waterproof fabric. The fabric having a wax add-on helps the fabric to keep dry so is fantastic for outdoor activities. 

This material is tough, so it can take plenty of use without getting trashed. It’s why jackets and bags, some tents (including the one we’re in) are made from waxed cotton. Fun Color Textile organic cotton fabric goods are built to last a long time, in spite of heavy use. 

How to care for and maintain your waxed cotton garments?

Looking after your waxed cotton wear is crucial to help them last. The easiest way to clean them is with a damp rag rubdown. Don’t use soap or detergent, because it can remove the wax. 

If your waxed cotton garments are no longer waterproof, you can add more wax to help them function more effectively. Fun Color Textile offers its easy application wax bars to help them keep your waxed cotton gear shipshape.
