Didgeridoonas Oilskin - The Basecamp Backpack

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Our traditional Oilskin products and garments are made from sturdy 100% cotton that is coated with our uniquely formulated oil and wax finish to give the Oilskin its distinctive weatherproof and breathable character. As a specialised material, the Oilskin fabric needs special attention to maintain its weatherproofing qualities.
The following care instructions will help prolong the life of your Oilskin product.

CLEANING
• Follow the washing/care instructions attached to the inside of the product.
• 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 item gets dirty, brush off dirt or sponge down with cold water
• When item is extremely dirty, hand wash in cold water
If the garment requires a complete clean, we recommend using our Wool/Oilskin Wash or pure soap.

REMOVING MOULD
• Firstly brush off as much mould on the garment as you can find.
• Sponge diluted vinegar onto the affected areas.
• Hand wash in luke warm water using our Didgeridoonas Oilskin/Wool Wash or a pure soap. Do not soak your Didgeridoona.
• Rinse off as much of the soap as you can and hang it out to dry. Keep out of direct sunlight.
• Hose down any excess soap and air your coat. Air out
• Once you’ve cleaned your Didgeridoona the soap may have stripped most of the oil out of the coat so it will need reproofing.
Please note, always store your oilskin product 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. At Didgeridoonas we offer two types of reproofing products for Oilskin care: Oilskin Reproofer and Didgeridoonas Reproofer Wax.

STORAGE AND GENERAL CARE
• Always store your Oilskin garment in a dry, well-ventilated area
• Do not leave in wet, enclosed environments as this promotes the growth of mould.
• The oil and wax proofing on your product can rub off on other surfaces. Be aware of this when using your product in close proximity with other 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.

Didgeridoonas® an Australian owned company
That began in 1995, with just two sewing machines, the two of us, and a casual seamstress. After initially directing our business towards the retailing and manufacture of clothing, we were inspired by woolgrower friends in Western Queensland to design products that utilized the numerous strengths of Australian wool.

Our products are designed to last a lifetime. By using the very best materials such as pure Australian wool, a durable oilskin fabric, strong leather handles and the toughest stitching we could find, we’ve created an extensive range of products which we are truly proud of. Indeed we have received various awards for them, including the Reed Australian Gift Award in 2001, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2007 and recently the Best Father’s Day Range with our Golf products.

Didgeridoonas® products are sold through selected stockists across Australia and we proudly export to a growing number of countries around the globe. Many Australian and International companies also use our products to promote their businesses.
