Gabardine

Gabardine is originally a worsted woollen cloth, sometimes with the addition of cotton or another type of fibre, made waterproof with lanolin applied to the threads before the weaving process. The fabric was introduced by Thomas Burberry, who established the Burberry fashion house, and who patented the fabric in 1888.
