Our 10 Favorite Waxed Canvas Gifts of 2022
There’s something about gear from seafaring traditions that often lands them in the classics category. Sure, part of it is that tools like dive watches and sailing knives are built to the spec-heavy needs of sailors.
Another part of it is best exemplified by waxed canvas. Everything built from it looks as cool as it’s strong, and as trend-resistant as it’s water-resistant. So for your present-giving consideration, here are this season’s 10 best waxed canvas gifts.
Flint and Tinder Flannel-Lined Waxed Trucker Jacket
Flint and Tinder takes the quintessential Waxed Trucker Jacket, and lines it with warm, soft-out-of-the-box flannel, making it a year-rounder. Each jacket is distinct to its wearer since the surface’s creasing effect creates wear patterns over time. And while the waxed trucker is a universal essential, it’s undoubtedly an American icon, this model being authentically USA-made.
GoRuck GR1 Heritage Backpack
The GoRuck GR1 Heritage Backpack isn’t just made out of waxed canvas. It’s made out of military-grade duck, a higher thread-count canvas with an exquisite denim-meets-suede aesthetic. The tried-and-true construction boasts several strategic compartments ensuring your EDC, laptop, and snacks don’t collide, and opens flat, army-style, for maximum efficiency.
Huckberry x Danner Waxed Canvas Danner Light Boots
From Huckberry, you’ve got the same supple waxed canvas from the Flint and Tinder Trucker Jacket. From Danner, the full-grain leather, heritage boot know-how, and the much-loved stitchdown construction that makes their footwear all-terrain stable. The result is this limited edition Canvas Danner Light Boot, which flaunts the stylishly lithe look of a desert shoe, grounded in work boot durability.
Tom Beckbe Canvas Dopp Kit
Between the Tom Beckbe Canvas Dopp Kit’s waxed nylon-canvas top, and its full-grain leather base and sides, this toiletry storage solution is handsome, suitcase-stable, and table-ready. It’s strong and flexible where it needs to be, secure and firm at the foundation, and cinched with a waterproof lining.
Flint and Tinder Quilted Waxed Shirt Jacket
Flint and Tinder’s Quilted Waxed Shirt Jacket is both function-forward and inhabits a wide range of style tribes. It has a brawny workwear build thanks to the always-reliable British Millerain waxed cotton, but the sophisticated structure of a countryside gentleman’s field jacket. Top that off with extra-cushy insulation, and you’ve got a true town-and-country piece of outerwear.
Flint and Tinder Waxed Apron
Most aprons don’t last very long, but few are made from the same kind of sail cloth built for thousands of hours at sea. Whether you’re in the heat of a kitchen or in front of the open fire of a campsite, Flint and Tinder’s Waxed Apron is spit-roast ready, fashionably patinates, and pocket-clad for your culinary arsenal.
Huckberry Waxed Canvas Tree Trucker Hat
The trucker hat is up there with work boots and good denim when it comes to casual essentials. The Huckberry Tree Trucker is a quality specimen of the category, with a matte yet vivid waxed canvas, sturdy but comfortable build, and the charming fully-embroidered Huckberry patch.
Give’r Frontier Waxed Mittens
Hard-wearing on the outside while breathable and waterproof inside, the Give’r Frontier Waxed Mittens is built for extreme weather of all varieties. Trying to avoid ice burns while building an igloo? Perhaps you need to move a burning log? The beautifully waxed (and snazzily embossed) body of these mittens can handle both.
Flint and Tinder Quilted Waxed Vest
Once again combining ruggedness with refined design sensibilities, the Quilted Waxed Vest is built to classic Flint and Tinder standards. This means a centuries-proven British Millerain waxed canvas shell with effective insulation, and impeccable detailing throughout. One example is the chambray collar, giving it an easy, versatile look whether none, all, or some of the buttons are done.
Red Clouds Collective Waxed Canvas Work Pants
The Red Clouds Collective Waxed Canvas Work Pants are like your most comprehensive EDC bag, compartment system and all, repurposed into an effortlessly cool pair of pants. Functionally, the double-layered waxing gives it tank-level durability and water resistance. Meanwhile, the style factor is unique yet non-intimidating. They’re sleeker than average work pants, more distinguished than a pair of jeans, and can be styled like both.
