Waxed

Surface finish

Waxing absorbs protection directly into the leather or fabric structure. Improves water resistance while preserving natural appearance. The layer gradually wears off.

How the wax finish is applied

Impregnation: wax soaks directly into the structure of the leather or webbing. No layer forms on the surface; the protection sits inside the material.

What it gives the product

Water repellency, a richer tone and a matte, natural look.

When to choose it and when not to

Leather straps and waxed webbing for outdoor wear. It isn't enough for permanent soaking. That's where waterproof webbing belongs instead.

How it ages

The wax fades slowly with use; refresh it by reapplying wax or balm and buffing the surface. For leather, this is a normal part of care.

What it pairs with

Vintage products with antique brass hardware.

  • Abrasion resistance

    Low

    Thin decorative coating that gradually wears through with regular wear and friction. Wear appears first where a buckle or snap contacts the strap, ring or fur.

  • Nickel

    No

    The finish contains no nickel in any layer. When making products for sensitive skin, also check the base material and every other component that touches the wearer.

  • Damp conditions

    Occasional rain

    Tolerates occasional contact with rain, wet grass or damp hands. Regular soaking accelerates visible wear, so dry the surface after it becomes wet.

  • Aging

    Gradually dulls

    Gradually loses some of its original gloss and may change tone slightly. This is a visual change and does not by itself affect the function of the part.

Process Impregnation Protective substance is absorbed into the material structure rather than forming a layer on the surface. It protects from within without changing dimensions and preserves the natural surface texture.
