Australian waterproof garments

At the end of the 19th century, the first settlers of Australia used the oil-soaked canvas from vessels to manufacture garments that could provide them good protection against the cold, the wind and the rain.
For the past two centuries, Australians have been improving these fabrics and methods to reach the highest level of comfort and efficiency.

Today, AUSSIE APPAREL garments are worn by farmers, and stockmen of Victoria and Tasmania, but also by fashion-conscious city-dwellers from the biggest cities. Wear an AUSSIE APPAREL coat and you will keep it for life. All our oiled cotton garments and accessories have a one-year guarantee.
