Cotton Oilskin - Chocolate

$23.95

Fabric is sold by the 1/2 yard (so 1 unit is 1/2 yard, 2 units is 1 yard, etc.).  Cut as one length.

This is the best quality traditional oilskin (the real deal)!  Made in the UK (with sustainably-grown cotton), and finished to age and wear beautifully.  It has a firm hand, and this fabric will give a distressed, worn appearance when handled, giving it a fast-tracked, unique vintage aesthetic.  A dark chocolate brown shade. Ideal for bags and accessories, and coats/jackets with structure -- fabric is waterproof/resistant.  

  • 60" wide (150cm)
  • 11.94 oz. (405gsm)
  • BCI (Better Cotton Initiative) cotton (was previously GOTS certified organic cotton)
  • A blend of oils and petroleum-based waxes is impregnated into the fiber and saturates the cloth, so the performance relies on a traditional wax/water resist application.
  • Do not iron, just fingerpress.
  • Not washable.
  • Do not use any interfacing with this type of oilskin, but you may want to line inside of jackets or bags.
    We recommend sewing with a denim needle and 100% poly thread.
