*Our coats will actually measure greater than the body size measurement as they are a traditional relaxed fit. Our fit caters to wear extra layers of clothing underneath and still have room to move and work comfortably and freely so you don't feel tightness when wearing our clothing. For women we recommend checking your measurements against the measurements in this size guide carefully.

The size guide is for reference only and does not guarantee the exact size.
Please refer as a guide only when ordering.
If the size is between, we recommend the larger size.

 

Care & Maintenance

Product Care & Instructions by Burke & Wills 

HOW DO I CARE FOR MY OILSKIN GARMENT?
The following care instructions will help to prolong the life of your Oilskin garment.
Before you purchase one of our coats or jackets, please ensure the correct size is selected to avoid excessive stretching at the seams that may allow water to penetrate.

CLEANING
Follow the washing/care instructions attached to the inside of the garment
Do not wash with detergent or hot water as this removes the oil and wax which are crucial to the Oilskin’s waterproofing qualities
When the garment gets dirty, brush off dirt or sponge down with cold water
When garment is extremely dirty, hand wash in cold water
If the garment requires a complete clean, we recommend using our Wool/Oilskin Detergent or pure soap (please note, the garment will require reproofing if it is washed using soap or detergent as these will wash out the waterproofing qualities):

After washing, rinse well (we suggest hanging the garment outside on clothesline and hosing down)
Hang in a well-ventilated area until completely dry
Do not hang on radiators, expose to naked flame or use artificial heat to dry
Once completely dry, the garment will require reproofing with our Re-proofer Wax
Do not machine wash, dry clean, starch or iron


REMOVING MOULD
Firstly brush off as much mould from the garment as you can.
Sponge diluted vinegar onto the affected areas.
Hand wash in luke warm water using our Oilskin/Wool Detergent or a pure soap.
Do not soak your coat.Rinse off as much of the soap as you can and hang it out to dry using a strong coat hanger. Keep out of direct sunlight.
Hose down any excess soap and air your coat. It may take some time airing your coat out to completely remove the musky smell.
Once you’ve cleaned your coat the soap may have stripped most of the oil out of the coat so it will need reproofing. When reproofing your Oilskin garment please refer to the reproofing instructions as listed above on this page.
If the garment is completely covered in mould, you can wash the whole coat in diluted vinegar and water. This will get the vinegar right through the whole coat to help kill off the mould.
Please note, always store your oilskin garment in a dry well ventilated area. Do not place in a cupboard or plastic bag for long periods of time, otherwise it will become mouldy.

REPROOFING
With wear over time, the oil and wax on the Oilskin fabric will naturally dry out. We recommend regular monthly checks to prevent dryness and promote longevity. At Burke & Wills we offer two types of reproofing products for Oilskin care:


Oilskin Re-Proofer (Spray)
• For reproofing of small products (i.e. hats, bags and dog coats) or small sections of larger Oilskin garments
• No heating required
• Can be sprayed directly on the product
• Easy to apply


Oilskin Re-Proofer ( Wax Tin)
• For reproofing entire Oilskin garments
• One 400g tin will reproof one Riding Coat (our longest coat)
• Wax compound needs to be heated and melted before use
• Use only genuine Burke & Wills Reproofer as substitutes may harm our garments
• Do not use any leather care goods to treat your Oilskin garments as the Oilskin has different properties to leather
Directions for use:
The Burke & Wills Reproofer Wax (tin) is an oil/wax compound that needs to be heated up by placing the tin in hot water (with the lid off) as this will liquefy the dressing (essential for easy and effective application)
Place the garment on a flat surface
Using the foam applicator or a sponge apply the wax, paying particular attention to vulnerable areas such as shoulders, neck seams and places subject to friction (e.g. pockets and creases in sleeves and knees)
• After reproofing, hang the garment out in the sun on a warm day or use the heat of a hair dryer on a low setting, spreading the heat evenly over the coat (this is recommended to achieve a factory finish)
• After drying, place garment on a strong hanger and leave to cool


STORAGE AND GENERAL CARE
• Always store your Oilskin garment in a dry, well-ventilated area
• Do not place in a cupboard or plastic bag for long periods of time as it will become mouldy
• If your Oilskin garment has become mouldy, we recommend hanging it under full sun for a couple of weeks
• If garment is still mouldy, hand wash with pure soap and reproof
• The oil and wax proofing on your garment keeps you dry but can also rub off on other fabrics, furnishings and garments, so be careful when wearing or storing your coat and do not place next to porous surfaces
• Do not stitch through or repair the outside of the fabric unless absolutely necessary
• If repairs need to be made, please make sure the area is reproofed after repairing to prevent leaking

Excellent history of 2008 financial crisis
Format: Kindle
As a non-economist, I wanted to learn about the causes and consequences of the 2008 financial crisis. Overall, Tooze has created what will likely become the definitive history of the crisis. He tells an incredibly detailed story of the rise of power among international banks, and how these banks created securities around mortgages that concealed their riskiness. The blow by blow story often had me in high suspense, testifying to the power of how Tooze put together the background events - and fininacial instruments of mass destruction - that nearly gave us WW Depression 2.0. Personally, I come away with great respect for Paulson, Berneke, Geitner, to name the key actors in this drama - for saving the world economy from ruins. I also come away with an unsolved mystery: why did America not fill its jails with crooked bankers? Yes, I understand from Tooze that the US Fed and Treasury were bankers, and disliked immensely turning in their own. But, zero bankers in jail, after causing what Tooze argues was the greatest bank crisis, ever, including Great Depression 1.0.? It makes no political sense that banks and their leaders nearly destroyed the world economy, but zero went jail, when millions across the world lost homes to foreclosure, suffered severe unemployment, had Democratic election results ignored by financial authorities (mainly in Europe). I am personally convinced this lack of fairness and justice has given us not only Trump but a broad range of autocratic political parties. They claim to protect everyday people, but of course do not. In sum, this rather masterpiece of historical financial analysis is a surefooted guide across the tricky lengthy and politically dangerous terrain of the 2008 financial crisis. Five stars.

2008 Neoliberalism crashes the state rushes back-- just in time
Format: Kindle
“Whereas since the 1970s the incessant mantra of the spokespeople of the financial industry had been free markets and light touch regulation, what they were now demanding was the mobilization of all of the resources of the state to save society’s financial infrastructure from a threat of systemic implosion, a threat they likened to a military emergency.” (Loc. 3172-3174) Adam Tooze takes the well know Financial Crisis of 2007-08 through its full history of international ramifications and brings it up to the present with the question of whether the large organizations, structures and processes on the one hand; decision, debate, argument and action on the other that managed to fall into place in that crisis period in this and many other countries will develop if needed again. “The political in “political economy” demands to be taken seriously.” (Loc. 11694). That he does. Tooze is an Economic Historian and Crashed: How a Decade of Financial Crises Changed the World is a wonderfully rich enquiry into causes and effects of the Financial Crisis and how the failing of poorly managed greed motivated practices of a few financial institutions, and their subprime mortgagees, tumbled economies in the developed and developing world, causing events that matched the Great Depression’s dislocation and could have matched its duration, springing from world wide money markets “interlocking matrix” of corporate balance sheets— bank to bank.” A warning he is not kind to existing political beings, the Republican Party in particular “…to judge by the record of the last ten years, it is incapable of legislating or cooperating effectively in government.” (Loc.11704) His criticism is, in fairness, based on technical management grounds, and he does find fault as well with the inner core of the Obama advisors and their primary concerns for the financial sectors well being, rather than nationwide happenings where homes and incomes disappeared. This reviewer’s favorite (not mentioned by Tooze) is the early 2009 comment of Larry Sumners when Christina D. Romer, the chairwoman of President Obama’s Council of Economic Advisers and leading authority on the Great Depression saw a need for $1.8 trillion stimulus package, “What have you been smoking?” Sumners, Geithner, and Orszag, who favored transferring $787 billion to the banks to offset possible bank failures and such -- became policy. Tooze mentions that by 2012 Sumners was concerned by the slowness of the U.S. economy’s recovery taking, as it did, 8 years to reach 2008 levels of employment.* Can an Economic History be an exciting read? Tooze gives us over 700 pages of just that, but much will be familiar as reported news and may be skimmed, and some of the Fed’s expanded international roles very dense in content. His strength is the knowledge of what could have happened, had solutions not been found, and how agreements were reached out of public sight. “… the world economy is not run by medium-sized … entrepreneurs but by a few thousand massive corporations, with interlocking shareholdings controlled by a tiny group of asset managers. (Loc.418-419). Add wily politicians and hard driven bankers EU Ukraine and China you have an adventure. Corporate control is not new -- rich descriptions of its inner connections are. Adam Tooze does this well a reference work for years to come. 5 stars *For an in depth critique of that period see: A Crisis Wasted: Barack Obama’s Defining Decisions by Reed Hundt

Spectacular story everyone should read
Format: Kindle
Although long, this book is simply a spectacular story that everyone should read. Even for the most informed, you will learn something new in every chapter. The 2008 financial crash is one of those rare events that will effect almost everyone on earth and certainly everyone in the US. As Tooze details, that crash is going to cost the US more than $20 trillion and has caused deep and dramatic social and political upheavals. The impact in Europe and around the world has been and continues to be no less far-reaching. For anyone who wants to understand the social, cultural, political and economic fault lines around the world today, this book is a must-read. It's deeply informed, comprehensive and insightful in surprising ways even for those who think they've already read everything worthwhile about the financial crash, economic crisis and political developments. Read it and then give it to someone else to read (or buy them one as a gift!).
