The Piedmont Jacket is the newest addition to the collection of weatherproof waxed cotton jackets and vests.

Built with all the proven durability and technical features that Tom Beckbe waxed jackets are known for, the Piedmont has a lightweight, weatherproof 6oz waxed cotton shell that is ideal for moderate climates.

Set-in sleeves provide flattering structure through the shoulders, while gusseted underarms and a bi-swing back allow for a full range of motion. The sleeves are lined with a smooth synthetic twill that glides over layers with ease and close with a snap cuff. Two chest hand warmer pockets are perfect for cold days, while large front bellow pockets provide ample storage and conceal two additional lower hand warmer pockets. A hidden Napoleon pocket keeps cellphones and other valuables dry and provides easy access without releasing heat.

A cotton liner inspired by Alabama red clay adds a touch of color to the interior, and an interior collarstand lined with Bedford corduroy provides welcome protection from the cold.

Your garment’s thin waxed coating resists liquids and makes it relatively easy to clean. Waxed cotton should not be machine washed or dry cleaned and should be kept away from hot water and harsh detergents that will remove the wax coating. When spots occur, use a damp rag or soft bristle brush to gently buff out the stained area. If spots are particularly stubborn, use a castile soap and rinse with lukewarm water. Re-wax the area with our reproofing wax and hang to air dry in a warm place.

Generally, rinse dirt and debris by hand with cold water and air dry. Do not iron. Do not bleach. Do not dry clean. Do not machine wash. Do not use artificial heat to dry, expose to open flames, or hang on radiators.
