Penfield garments are designed to stand up to the demands of the New England climate and our founding principles of fashion, function, practicality and durability still resonate clearly in today’s collection.


This season, we have developed a number of styles using our very own Hudson Wax Cloth, named after the birthplace of our label, Hudson, Massachusetts. Our Hudson Wax Cloth is a densely woven fabric with a blend of 65% polyester and 35% cotton, making the material not only windproof but also extremely durable. Thanks to its impregnation of environmentally friendly dry wax, the surface is also water-repellent whilst still allowing for breathability and moisture wicking.

For Spring/Summer 2011, we are also very proud to introduce our new Lightweight Hudson Wax Cloth, a blend of 60% Nylon and 40% Cotton also with a wax impregnation.

Perfect for a milder climate, this hardwearing fabric also wicks moisture effectively away from the body in a lighter fabrication than Penfield’s original Hudson Wax Cloth and is the perfect solution for 'Life in the Open'.


Definable by their lightweight design and functionality, the brand new Dover, Holbrook, Russell and Rider jackets exude understated style and are the perfect manifestation of Penfield's Trailwear and Classic series.

Due to the nature of the wax impregnation, the surface of the fabric may appear marked with age; these natural imperfections after time will enhance the overall look of the garment.

A lot has changed since Penfield’s inception in 1975, but the need for protection against the elements remains every bit as essential.
