The temptation to waterproof fabric for clothing with wax ,oil and plastic  is understandable ,especially for extremes of rain which we are accustomed to in this part of the world 

However the result is a build up water on the inside of the garment ,defeating the purpose by being very unhealthy, clammy and cold

We have managed to treat the linen with a dry proofing so the hydrostatic head  is high enough to repel rain  (even irish rain) and low enough for breathability a very important comfort factor

Hence our presence at the shows throughout the UK Ireland and beyond  all year round, because we cater for both seasons warm rain and cold rain

To date our best selling show ever was at Hampton Court Palace in 35 degrees of heat..!!!
