When it comes to outdoor clothing and equipment, a little care from time to time can go a long way to prolonging the life and performance of your gear. While everyday detergents can in fact impair the effectiveness of your clothing, the correct after-care product will ensure that your garments are thoroughly cleaned and revitalised, allowing them to perform at their best.

From waxes to wool wash, every item in our waterproofing and cleaning collection is chosen to help you retain protection and longevity in the field.

Outdoor waterproofing covers much more than just the outer shell jacket; it extends to everything you rely on for protection and comfort outdoors. For example, the TX.Direct Wash-In treatment penetrates waterproof-breathable fabrics to restore water repellence without compromising breathability. For heavier materials like cotton or waxed canvas, a product like Cotton Proof renews the outer shell’s ability to shed water while retaining the natural feel of the fabric.

When it comes to down filled jackets or sleeping bags, separate treatments such as Down Proof or Down Wash Direct are vital. These cleaning and outdoor waterproofing agents remove oils and sweat and reapply repellence, so moisture doesn’t soak into the insulation. Even if the outer fabric remains dry, the insulation can fail if it absorbs water, so these treatments complete the system of waterproofing your kit.

Good outdoor waterproofing and cleaning also includes simple habits like rinsing off mud and grit before storing gear and regularly checking taped seams and refreshing the treatment after heavy exposure or washing.

Trust is built on experience. Many outdoor waterproofing solutions are used by bushcraft professionals, where gear is exposed to rain, campfire heat, water splashes, and long-term use. When your kit keeps performing, you can focus on the outdoors and not on damp clothing or water-soaked gear.
