Benefits of the heavy-duty Shelter series waxed canvas:

1. Durability: The weight of the canvas, measured at 14.75 ounces per square yard, signifies its sturdiness and ability to withstand tough conditions. This heavy canvas is more substantial and resistant to abrasions, tears, and general wear and tear compared to lighter fabrics. It's a reliable choice for garments intended for rugged use.

2. Weather Resistance: Waxed canvas is naturally water-resistant due to the wax treatment applied to the fabric. A heavier weight canvas, like the 14.75oz, provides enhanced protection against moisture, making it ideal for outerwear. It keeps the wearer dry in light to moderate rain and offers a barrier against wind, adding an extra layer of weatherproofing.

3. Structural Integrity: The heavier weight contributes to the jacket's structure, ensuring it retains its shape over time. It offers better support and form, which is particularly beneficial for outerwear where maintaining a certain silhouette is essential.

4. Longevity: With its robust construction, a 14.75oz heavyweight waxed canvas jacket is designed to last. It can withstand daily use, making it a durable investment that remains functional and stylish for years. Can be re-waxed. Click to lean more.

6. Comfort and Warmth: While offering durability, the heavier canvas can also provide a bit more insulation and warmth compared to lighter fabrics. It serves well in transitional weather or cooler temperatures, making it a versatile choice across seasons.

In summary, a 14.75oz heavyweight waxed canvas jacket combines durability, weather resistance, structural integrity, and a distinct appearance.
