The Charles Waxed Canvas Apron (Pre-Order)

This item is available for pre-order. Orders placed today will ship in time for Christmas delivery.

The Charles Waxed Canvas Apron is crafted from the finest materials to deliver rugged durability and timeless style. Made with 12 oz. nutmeg waxed canvas, 9 oz. navy waxed canvas pockets, and 5/8 inch chestnut-finished leather straps, this apron is built to handle years of hard work. Each piece is finished with copper rivets and brass button studs for superior strength and a classic look.

We use a custom wax blend of local beeswax, paraffin wax, and linseed oil to coat the canvas, protecting it from the elements and giving it that perfectly weathered, broken-in finish over time.
