Tip 1: Order a Särmä Windproof Smock, Parka or Fishtail Parka (20% off till 14 SEPT for Regular Pigs). Tip 2: Make the windproof garment also water resistant with Särmä Fabric Wax.

The most common way to apply wax is ironing, but there is another way – do it with a blow dryer. Here’s a short instruction:
1. Pre-heat the wax bar a little bit.
2. Apply on fabric: Rub an even, thin layer. You will get a smoother look with thin wax layers.
3. Melt the wax with blow dryer heat.
4. Repeat if you wish. You will get more protection with several wax layers.

The blow dryer method is handy when there are many seams, pockets, or such spots which are hard to heat with a flat iron. Särmä Fabric Wax bar is very sufficient and can be applied on almost any cotton or cotton blend item to make it water repellent or water resistant. So you may want to also try it on your other belongings, e.g. outdoor cotton pants or bags. Please visit our website to learn more about fabric waxing.
