Traditional Waxed Cotton

The Maxton’s outer is made from 100% waxed cotton, giving the waistcoat the rugged character associated with classic British country clothing.

Its waxed surface helps resist light showers and everyday dirt while developing a distinctive appearance through regular outdoor use.

Lightly Padded for Warmth

Light padding helps retain warmth around the core without creating the bulk of a heavily insulated winter coat.

The sleeveless design keeps the arms unrestricted, making the Maxton a practical choice for working, walking and completing everyday outdoor tasks.

Soft Checked Lining

A brushed checked lining provides a soft, comfortable interior and reinforces the waistcoat’s traditional country styling.

Wear it over a shirt during milder conditions or add a knitted jumper or fleece when more insulation is required.

Four Practical Pockets

Two large front pockets provide convenient storage for gloves and everyday essentials.

Two separate handwarmer pockets offer protection for cold hands. Press-stud closures help keep the pockets secure during active use.

Suedette Country Detailing

Brown suedette trims provide a smart contrast against the Olive waxed outer.

A contrasting collar gives the waistcoat a defined country appearance that pairs naturally with checked shirts, moleskin trousers and outdoor boots.

Coordinates with the Kelso Range

The Maxton has been designed to coordinate with the Hoggs of Fife Kelso Waxed Jacket.

Wear the pieces together for a consistent country look or use the Maxton independently as a practical outer layer in cool, dry or lightly showery weather.

Built for Rural Life

The Maxton is suitable for farming, yard work, gardening, dog walking, country events and relaxed weekend wear.

Its combination of warmth, practical storage and unrestricted arm movement makes it a versatile addition to a working country wardrobe.
