The Enduring Appeal of Australian Made Oilskin Jackets

Getting a coat that handles the wild Australian weather shouldn't be a headache. Most jackets fall apart when the rain pours or the bushes get thick, but Kakadu Traders Australia makes gear for people who actually spend time outside. If you want a coat that stands up to mud and wind, Australian made oilskin jackets are the way to go. These aren't just for looking good at the shops. They're built from tough materials that block the wet while keeping you warm on those freezing mornings.

Keeping your gear working well

Getting a proper jacket is a smart move. You'll realise quickly that oilskin needs a little bit of care to stay in top shape. We sell a reproofer to keep the fabric waterproof so it stays useful for years. Keeping your gear clean is easy if you follow these tips

• Use a stiff brush to knock off any dried mud or dust

• Only use cold water for cleaning so the protective wax stays put

• Put on some fresh reproofer wax if you see water soaking in instead of rolling off

Wearing your new coat

You don't need to be on a farm to pull this look off. These Australian made oilskin jackets work great with jeans for a weekend BBQ or with your work trousers on a job site. The dark colour choices mean they match almost anything you own. Throw on a sturdy hat or some leather boots and you're set. Because our australian made oilskin jackets are built so well, they actually get softer and more comfortable every time you wear them. Shop now and pick up your new oilskin gear from the Kakadu Traders Australia shop now.
