The Hooded Smock Forest Green
-
Description
Drawn from Yarmouth Oilskins' archive and reimagined for contemporary wear, the Hooded Smock marries historical authenticity with modern practicality. Handcrafted from organic waxed cotton produced by one of Britain's oldest mills in Dundee, the fabric delivers breathability alongside genuine weather resistance - qualities that intensify as the dry wax develops its distinctive patina.
An unlined construction with internal waist drawcord ensures adaptability across seasons. Brass hardware, deep welted pockets with storm flaps, and a three-piece hood reflect meticulous detailing throughout. This is a garment that honours 125 years of oilskin heritage whilst performing flawlessly in the real world.
