Our waxed canvas and leather triangle wrap backpack is lightweight and comfortable to wear. Best worn across one shoulder, it is perfect for walking or riding your bike.
Waxed canvas was developed to protect the Scottish fishermen from the elements in the 15th century. In recent years, it has become popular thanks to the same reason it was developed for, durability, water-resistance, but most importantly, it looks damn fine. Our duffle bags repel heavy rain, but will not be waterproof if submerged. In addition, the waxed canvas patinas over time, meaning scuffs, marks and creases give character which continues to develop with age.
Waxed canvas has a great texture and is not sticky and damp to the touch. Additionally, the waxed canvas does not need to be washed but may need a re-wax over time. To test if your bag needs a rewax, spray with cold water. If after five minutes, the water has beaded and rolled off, it is still working. If the water has soaked in, it’s time to re-wax.
Like shoes, our waxed canvas and leather triangle wrap backpack will need to be broken in and will take time. However, they should not be heated to hasten the wearing in and they should never be ironed as it can remove the wax.
The best thing about our Waxed Canvas Triangle Wrap Backpack? It only gets better with age.
At Baxter & Black, we not only sell the Waxed Canvas Triangle Wrap Backpack we can also repair and re-wax them. All bags are guaranteed for 12 months after purchase.
