Totally Australian made and waterproof made by the original oilskin company. The genuine oilskin Driza-Bone Riding Coat is an action coat, generously cut to allow plenty of freedom of movement especially across the back and shoulders. Its traditional wearers were often on horseback so the reinforced elbow patches on the coats are strategically placed on the inside of the elbows, preventing the pools of rain water that naturally formed there from seeping in. The coat is made long enough so the rain won't run into your boots.
The strongest and toughest of the Driza-Bones is the 12oz (340gm) oilskin cotton heavyweight fabric. Its durability and toughness makes it an excellent work coat for protection under the worst conditions.
Large bellows pockets with side entry pockets set behind. There are no exposed raw edges, sleeves are extra long, and the seams are heavy-duty double stitched in areas of greatest stress. The cut of the cape is designed to protect the body just where it is most exposed to rain and cold.
Leg straps are designed to stop your Driza-Bone from taking off in strong winds. Fitted with snaps for optional hood and buttonholes for optional liners.
This coat has all the necessary features. Great for horse riding, work or play. It is also handmade in Australia!
The coat has provision for a detachable hood and wool liner, which can be purchased separately.

About Driza-Bone:
In 1898, a scottish sailor by the name of Edward Le Roy fashioned a few old canvas windjammer sails to protect himself from the daily abuse handed out by the 'Roaring Forties'. He did not know it, but he had created what all Australians now know as the first ever Driza–Bone® Oilskin Coat. Over a hundred years on, Driza–Bone® is now a household name.
Located in sunny Queensland, half way between Brisbane and the Gold Coast, Driza–Bone® operates from what was once a local country pub. One of the largest employers for the local community, our manufacturing capabilities are unrivalled and with over 100 years of practice, its no wonder.
It might also explain why Driza–Bone® are one of the few remaining Australian clothing manufacturers; understanding the punishment our harsh Australian climate can deliver, the evolution of our range has flourished with styles that cater for a vast array of people and conditions.
Many other stories can be told about the legend, so check out use the links to the left to see what it is that makes the name Driza–Bone® synonymous with Australia, and loved by Australians the world over
