Custom Oil-Waxed Bulletprufes - 6th Gen
Now that the seasons have turned, it's time to break out the oil-wax. Time-tested over the centuries, water and wind resistant, and built to withstand the elements, each pair is hand-waxed and finished, and will last a lifetime. From bluebird days on the slopes to backcountry adventures, there is nothing like the timeless durability of oil-wax. They only get better with age as they develop a deep, rich patina, and are literally made to last a lifetime. Each pair is waxed and finished by hand in North Carolina, USA.
Oil-Waxed is also available in our ultra-rugged Four-Season Jacket.
Each pair will be custom made to order so please allow a few extra days for the waxing and curing process. Due to the time and effort involved in making each pair, returns of our waxed items are only eligible for exchange or store credit.
Do you know your "actual" size?
Many other brands "vanity size" and the sizes listed on the tag are not the actual measurements. We recommend that you grab a pair of pants that you already own that fit you well and measure them. To get an accurate measurement, zip the zipper, button the button, lay them down flat and measure across the very top to get the actual waist (then double it). Then order your Buletprufes based on that measurement.
What are your pants made from?
- We use a proprietary nylon, cotton, polyester, and spandex quad-blend fabric that we developed in house.
What is the difference between Bulletprufe chinos and jeans?
- The only difference between the chinos and the jeans is the pockets. They are both made from the same Bulletprufe Quad-Blend Fabric and fit the same. The chinos have slit side pockets with a large coin/cell phone pocket on the right side and slit rear pockets with an interior pocket bag. They're just as durable as our denim, but a tad more formal. Our jeans are a standard five-pocket.
What is the difference between Bulletprufe Slim Fits and the Adventure Fits?
- The slims are a more tapered fit, though by no means "skinny." For a 32" waist, the slims measure 24.5" at the thigh and 15" at the ankle. The Adventure Fits are more like a typical straight fit and measure 26" at the thigh and 17" at the ankle.
