Ruggedwear is a cotton-based fabric impregnated with proprietary natural waxes and oils that have been developed over generations, a process that provides a permanent resistance to inclement weather, but still allows the fabric to breathe. It also imparts a unique well-worn patina to the material a fashionably distressed look that projects professionalism, but is less likely to attract unwanted attention as a bag containing expensive equipment. The unique appearance of Ruggedwear complements traditional casual outerwear perfectly and it has the unmistakable air of genuine authenticity that few modern materials possess.
Ruggedwear is actually an improved version of traditional proofed Egyptian cotton it's every bit as rugged, durable and impervious to water but isn't oily to the touch and is completely odorless. Like leather, Ruggedwear isn't supposed to be machine washed or dry-cleaned, but it can easily be hosed off, cleaned with mild soap, a damp cloth or soft scrub brush, or even held under the shower! After considerable use you can touch it up and restore the original wax finish to perfection with the tin of finishing ointment furnished with each Ruggedwear Domke bag. However unless you're a polar explorer or a forest ranger, you probably won't have to do this for years. If you want the weathered look without the wait, and a camera bag that's optimized for wearing and working out of and not merely used as a storage container, by all means take a close look the Domke Ruggedwear line, the only Made in USA camera bag designed by pros for pros, and the only one with a nautical heritage going back over half a millennium!
