    I’m complete ignorant on this and this is the first I’m witnessing someone wax their clothes.

    • What is the purpose?
    • Why are we interested in this?
    • Is this some old school thing that’s resurging in popularity?
    • Has this been around the whole time and I’ve never noticed?

      I like the look of waxed canvas, I’ve been buying bags that are waxed because I think they look neat after they get older and they are water resistant. They have been around a long time but maybe more for people who work outdoors or in rainy areas. A lot of the videos I found were mainly focused on welders

        I see, thanks! I wonder if it’s a regional thing. I don’t see anything like this on the East Coast.
