This vintage-styled waxed cotton luggage uses traditional materials and
manufacturing techniques to recall a time when people worked and played
outdoors, come rain or shine. Beneath the old-world look is a hidden layer
of modern technology, offering a user experience to match today’s
demanding expectations. The material is dry waxed cotton, a modern take on
the traditional sailcloth, which sailors wore to protect themselves from
the salt water and wet weather. The dry wax application is applied to all
outer materials including the straps and won't come off on your hands when
moving, fitting and using the luggage.
Traditional methods are used
to assemble the bags. For example, pockets are pleated in order to lie flat
when empty, but provide space to expand when filling; flag stitches secure
all the straps and strapping points to the main structure of the bag; the
roll top closure is both traditional and the best way to seal the bags
against rain. Inside the bags, you will find a very modern removable
waterproof liner which uses taped seams to guarantee that the contents
remain dry, even when the outer material has been drenched. The luggage
employs Oxford’s most up-to-date fitting system to ensure that it can
be secured to the bike safely, with all necessary fittings supplied. The
result is a user-friendly product which does the job whilst looking the
part.
