Dawson Denim‘s Waxed Cotton Mac expertly fuses the utilitarian ruggedness of waxed cotton with the timeless elegance of the Mackintosh Coat.
The term ‘Mac‘ refers to a 3/4 length coat invented by Charles Mackintosh. And while it may be a British term, I’m sure stylish purveyors of quality goods on both sides of the Atlantic can get down with this beauty. Especially when it’s been sewn from a gorgeous British Millerain waxed cotton and lined with an insane Kasuri indigo fabric — need I say more about this thing?
This earth-toned, element-resistant waxed cotton is a nice contrast to all the indigo blue you’re normally rocking, but it can also serve as a fantastic companion to say, a suit? Where my mods at? In reality, you can rock the Mac with pretty much anything —from raw denim to sweatpants — and the oversized fit makes layering a doozy.
Dawson didn’t compromise on quality, obviously, but let us break it down for you: The Mac comes complete with hidden British horn buttons on the front placket, dual flap-closure hip pockets, hidden side seam pockets, internal pockets, an Italian corduroy collar, removable hood, button-adjusting cuffs, brass eyelets, Reece 101 button holes, and a storm flap. Each piece is built by a maximum of 2 craftspeople in Dawson’s workshop on the south coast of England.
Available for $928 from Dawson Denim.
