At Dawson HQ, it tends to rain a lot, which is why we have created a lightweight and water resistant Windcheater for SS24, perfect for the transitional seasons. 

The Windcheater is made from lightweight waxed ripstop fabric by British Millerain, which gives it a unique patina with wear and can be re-waxed when required. We have taken our classic Hoodie design and extended the body length by 5 cm to provide better rain cover.

In addition to its superior material, the Windcheater features side vent pockets that won't collect rain, a heavy-duty Swiss-made Riri Zip, and drawstrings throughout, in keeping with the 60s US Nautical/Ivy theme. To complete this away day addition, it comes with a waxed rip-stop pouch. French seams throughout provide a water resistant finish.

We have made the Windcheater by hand in our workshop in Hove, using our original vintage sewing machines. We have produced it in strictly limited numbers.
