ABOUT THIS PRODUCT
A generous 3 oz. puck of natural waterproofing wax crafted for canvas and cotton jackets, tents, bags, shoes, and more. This artisan-made formula combines pure natural waxes and oils to create a barrier that keeps wind and water out while adding a unique finish to any fabric.
The application ritual is beautifully simple. Warm the puck with a hairdryer to soften, then rub directly onto fabric like a crayon, saturating the entire surface. Follow with gentle heat from the hairdryer to melt the wax into the fibers, creating lasting protection.
Each tin represents the maker's commitment to handcrafted quality and sustainable practices, supporting local family farms that provide organic beeswax and other natural ingredients. This is fabric care that honors both tradition and the environment.

In Brooklyn, an artist and furniture maker grew weary of constantly switching between work boots and dress shoes. This simple frustration sparked a quest for one pair of boots that could transition seamlessly from workshop to evening, which meant finding the right natural care product.
After searching unsuccessfully for petroleum-free, truly natural leather care that wouldn't over-saturate, the craftsperson began experimenting. Working with eager Brooklynite focus groups over more than a year, they perfected formulas using locally sourced ingredients from small family farms.
Today, this small company continues handmaking products in small batches, prioritizing natural and sustainable ingredients in everything from formulations to packaging. Their mission remains rooted in supporting local farming practices while creating the highest quality artisanal goods possible.
