Dry Wax Anorak

This anorak combines the design of vintage Arctic gear with the weather resistance of waxed cotton for reliable weather protection with minimal bulk.

This shell is modeled after the smocks worn by early mountaineers and WWII-era troops serving in arctic units. The pullover design was dictated by the demand for rugged simplicity in the harshest conditions, while improving packability.

The quarter-length front zipper is backed by a gusset to maintain protection when unzipped, while allowing ventilation. The drawcord-adjustable hood is large enough to provide coverage for the sides of your face. For absolute dependability, the adjusting drawcords at the waist and hem simply tie off, eliminating the need for hardware. The waist ties are tucked inside the kangaroo hand pocket to prevent snagging. A snap-flap chest pocket keeps smaller essentials close at hand and secure. The back is double-layered for durability and added protection. Snap-adjustable cuffs.
