History
The brand originated in 1823 when Scottish chemist Charles Macintosh patented a method for waterproofing cotton with naphtha-distilled rubber. This innovation led to the creation of the first functional raincoat. Throughout the 19th and 20th centuries, the company supplied waterproof garments to the British Army and railway workers. Its technical advancements established the 'Mac' as a standard garment in global fashion history, bridging the gap between industrial utility and traditional sartorial design.Family
