If you haven’t yet seen a waxed canvas bag, you might be wondering what the fuss is all about. But there’s just something irresistible about the texture of the fabric and the kind of vintage feel that works for both men and women.

Builford is a top brand among the many offering waxed canvas products. Here are a few reasons it stands out among the crowd: 

1: At Builford, we use the original, trademarked Martexin waxed canvas formula that’s been handed down from generation to generation since the 1930s. Over the years, the formula has been perfected and extensively researched. The Martexin family keeps the formula a well-guarded secret, even refusing to patent it as that would require the recipe entering the public arena, but have granted Builford a special license to use it among a very few number of brands. Other formulas exist, but lacking the same quality of the Martexin version.

 

2: Many waxed canvas backpacks brands tout the outdoors advantages of their packs, such as their waterproofness, their durability, and etc. Builford can claim all of these advantages as well, but they are also fashion bags, student bags, school bags, and much more. They are not out of place in everyday use, yet are also perfectly functional as outdoor packs.

3: Builford bags aren’t just fashion items either; they are practical as well. Each bag has been designed knowing that the bag will be used — as intuitive as that might seem, there are lots of bags out there that seem to miss this fact. The backpacks are especially fantastic, even with heavy loads, the padded straps ease the burden enormously. There are pockets for everything, including makeup and other cosmetics, so everything has its own place and stays well-organized.

4: Come rain or shine, your things are safe: because of the waxed canvas, all Builford backpacks are waterproof.
