Wax Jackets

A waxed jacket is one of the most useful, lightweight jackets a man can own. Great for wind proofing as well as keeping out the rain, they are ideal for week end outdoor activities. They also provide long lasting protection, and at Stylight, there's a range of Wax jackets for men from many designers and fashion labels. From high end labels like Hugo Boss, to sportswear labels like Nike, there's a good choice for every taste.

Wax On, Wax Off: When a Waxed Jacket Comes In Handy

Waxed jackets are crafted from sturdy cotton and then treated with a paraffin-based resinous coating, rendering them impermeable against the elements. Traditionally worn for outdoor sporting activities like hunting and fishing, the waxed jacket is a versatile and classic piece of outerwear that belongs in every man’s closet.

In certain situations, a waxed jacket can mean the difference between being marvelous and feeling miserable. Invest in a high-quality waxed topper today and save yourself a world of trouble.

Sudden Shower

Some storms just sneak up on you. In the balmy, warm season, storms gather and dissipate at the blink of an eye, leaving you drenched and dejected—not to mention sticky and sweaty. Be prepared with a lightweight waxed jacket that doesn’t weigh you down in the humid heat but protects you from any sudden showers. Don a pair of rubber-soled ankle boots with perforation to keep your feet cool and dry as well.

Misty Morning

Going out for an early morning jaunt? The dim, cool light of the rising sun has never been more welcome, but the morning dew leaves you in shivers. Snuggle into a waxed jacket with a shearling or corduroy lining to swaddle you in warmth in those wee hours when the sun’s rays haven’t hit you yet. With a jacket this warm, you won’t need too many extra layers—go for a long-sleeved henley tee and jeans for just the right amount of coverage.

Seasonal Sprinkles

On days when the rain never seems to stop but also doesn’t reach torrential levels, it’s essential to wear a jacket that won’t yield to the drizzle. Water beads off of a waxed jacket, making it even more effective than a nylon raincoat, which resists water, but doesn’t repel it. Coupled with rubber wellies and a baseball cap, you’ll look polished and stay dry all day long.

A waxed jacket is the water-repellent wonder of your dreams. Don’t hesitate to invest in one of these coated coats—it’ll keep you dry and warm for years to come.

“Waxing” means growing larger—just like our love for these waxed jackets.
