Apron care guide

There are two ways of removing the creases and wrinkles, which are to iron on the lowest heat or blow dry with a hair dryer on high. Some owners like the wrinkled look.

​

There are many ways to wear and fit your apron. We recommend bringing the leather straps all the way around the back, back around to the front again, and tying the knot off to one side or the other; some people tuck the excess leather into a pocket or cut the excess leather strap.

​

If you are not sharing the apron with others, once you have adjusted the neck strap to help the apron hang at the right height from the neck, we recommend you cut the leather strap in areas where you think there is excess leather.

​

You can keep the apron clean by wiping it down with a hot damp cloth at the end of each day.  Some stains might need a scrub or some extra attention.

​

If the apron has simply gotten soiled in dirt and stains over time, you can machine wash on cold and lay it out to dry, but be prepared, the leather straps will get very tangled and knotted. Before washing, tuck the long waist straps deep into pockets. Once dry, you can iron the apron on low for a fresh look.

​

We always recommend hanging the apron up, instead of holding it up or sticking it into a box.​

Wax-canvas was first invented by sailors in Northern Scotland in the late 1700's, to stop their sails from getting weighted down by water, so the product is water repellent.

​

This wax canvas is made from tightly woven cotton; we call it Duck-Cotton.

​

The cotton is dipped in wax of various colors before drying it into the material you see.
