#macintosh raincoat

On June 17th 1823 Charles Macintosh patented the waterproof cloth he was using to make raincoats.

While he was trying to find uses for the waste products of gasworks, Charle discovered that coal-tar naphtha dissolved india rubber. He took wool cloth and painted one side with the dissolved rubber preparation and placed another layer of wool cloth on top.

This created the first practical waterproof fabric, but the fabric was not perfect. It was easy to puncture when it was seamed, the natural oil in wool caused the rubber cement to deteriorate. In cold weather the fabric became stiffer and in hot weather the fabric became sticky. When vulcanized rubber was invented in 1839, Macintosh's fabrics improved since the new rubber could withstand temperature changes.

Of course just because you patent something it does not mean you actually were the first to invent it, controversy has followed the invention of the telephone since Alexander Graham Bell patented it, other inventions were questioned, the tyre, the television and the bicycle, all connected to Scotland and all have earlier versions that were thought of, or made beforehand, the “Mac” is no different.

James Syme, a surgeon and chemist based in Edinburgh, had discovered a derivative of coal tar (naphtha) could dissolve rubber and published his findings in Thomson's Annals of Philosophy five years before Macintosh came up with his idea.

It was the same process used by Macintosh following his own chemistry experiments with waste from Glasgow’s coal-gas works, and it has been claimed that the inventor had read Syme’s work before developing it for his own uses.

While Syme, uninterested in commercial matters, failed to patent his valuable discovery and continued to build a noteworthy career in surgery, Macintosh stamped his name on the idea in 1823, had Syme done so you might be calling the coats Symes.....it doesn’t have the same ring does it? Syme’s paper had not detailed the crucial sandwich-type construction employed by Macintosh, although this too was not completely new.

Spanish scientists previously used the method to make leak-proof containers for mercury, and renowned British balloonist Charles Green made a balloon envelope that applied the same principle in 1821.

French scientists also made balloons gas-tight and impermeable by impregnating fabric with rubber dissolved in turpentine and the use of rubber to waterproof fabric dates back to the Aztecs, who used natural latex.

But what made Macintosh’s invention revolutionary was its ease of manufacture and wear, seeing him swiftly launching into the production of cloth to be converted into coats and other garments by tailors in Glasgow.

Some of you might have picked up on the different spelling of the names in the first two paragraphs? Others will now be scrolling back to see what I mean! Well when As news of his invention spread, the repeated misspelling of the inventor’s name is thought to have popularised the description of the resulting coat as a “Mackintosh” – a name that has stuck to the present day.

Macintosh was elected as a fellow of the Royal Society for his contributions to chemistry and enjoyed considerable success before his death in 1843, aged 76.

First sold in 1824, his coat remains on the market in numerous forms across the world, it is now primarily a luxury brand still bearing its inventor’s name, even though it is spelled wrong!

THE ICONIC MAC Mackintosh

The Mackintosh story began at the dawn of the industrial revolution in the early 19th Century when Scottish chemist Charles Macintosh invented a new method of waterproofing cotton.

Women’s Outdoor Apparel: In Historical Context

If I had the opportunity to conduct a research project with unlimited funds, I would do it on the history of women’s outdoor gear. Historical Fashion has always fascinated me, and in recent years my attention has been drawn to the severe gaps that remain in outdoor gear and apparel aimed toward women. For instance, there is an ongoing joke between my friends and I (that has proved true many a time) that all financially accessible women’s outdoor apparel companies only make outdoor wear in the colours black, fuchsia, or teal. Historically, women’s active and outdoors wear has always been a few steps behind that of men.

For example, in 1943 most male sports players were fighting overseas in World War 2, and Philip Wrigley formed the All-American Girls Professional Baseball team, on which the players wore a one-piece skirted uniform as opposed to pants. Women were meant to “look like ladies, but play like gentlemen” (Porter, 2020). From my 11 years playing Softball, I can tell you that sliding into home with anything less than full length pants and sliding pads will leave you with some very unladylike scars. 

Dorothy “Dottie” Kamenshek, First Basemen for the Rockford Peaches jumping to catch a ball in her uniform, from the National Baseball Hall of Fame, from:  https://www.enidnews.com/news/league-of-their-own-women-baseball-players-together-again/article_aa96deac-d474-5e3e-8fa6-9443f239aa89.html

In another example, the 19th century and industrial revolution led to much more expendable income in families and led to more women joining their husbands in outdoor pursuits like yachting and mountain climbing. MacIntosh rubberized-cotton raincoats were patented in 1823 and became quite popular in 1830 following their roll-out to military men, but the popularization of waterproof outerwear for women and subsequent design of fashionable styles would not come until the 1880s and 1890s (Shepard, 2012).

If I had unlimited resources, I would do a deep dive into the history of women’s outdoor wear from woolen shawls and tunics to Helly Hansen Jackets, complete with trips to fashion museums to view extant garments, conversations with historians and modern garment makers, and a look into why so many gaps between men’s and women’s outdoor wear exists.

Ethically, this project would ideally not be a large undertaking. It would focus mainly on compiling existent research and speaking with experts only on the basis of their past research and findings, so factors like engagement with vulnerable persons, power imbalances, and most risk factors would likely be easier to avoid. However, there is always economic and social risks to these experts should they speak ill of their institutions or design companies, so this would need to be addressed. Of course, free and informed consent is also a factor in these interviews, as is respecting participant privacy.

This research would be proposed as a way to help outdoor gear and apparel companies better connect to the wants and needs of outdoorswomen, and as a way to bridge the gap between fashion design and user practicality. It would help gear companies and women by furthering the conversation around past and current inequities between men’s and women’s ability to access the outdoors. It would help expedition leaders and companies in better addressing the gear needs of women who enter their programs.

On June 17th 1823 Charles Macintosh patented the waterproof cloth he was using to make raincoats.

Mackintosh rubberized coats were not immediately successful. Although they were waterproof, they had a strong smell which most wearers found unpleasant. It was not until a fellow chemist, Thomas Hancock, invented a process involving vulcanized rubber that the problem was solved. Hancock became a partner in Macintosh’s business in 1834. This marked the real start of the iconic Mackintosh brand.

In 1824 an Arctic exploration team trialled rubber coated waterproof canvas bags, air-beds and pillows made by the Macintosh patented process. In 1841 the British army ordered waterproof clothing for all its troops. The rubberized coats and capes were functional and hard wearing and they soon became standard army issue.

After the death of Charles Macintosh in 1843, the company had a period of decline. But in 1851 the Mackintosh coat was shown at The Grand Exhibition at Crystal Palace, London. And the rest is history.

Of course just because you patent something it does not mean you actually were the first to invent it, controversy has followed the invention of the telephone since Alexander Graham Bell patented it, other inventions were questioned, the tyre, the television and the bicycle, all connected to Scotland and all have earlier versions that were thought of, or made beforehand, the “Mac” is no different.

I wonder which Ruby this is. I'm thinking Gen.

Maybe THIS is the dangerous stuff I thought he got into earlier in the story!

*few sentences later*

"heroin" "coke" ah there it is.

Like End!verse Cas!

Oh poor sweetie he trying to OD?!

Wow that was so harsh Castiel! So heartbreaking for Balthazar. Unrequited love is so 😖 painful.

Huh department store. Strange choice. Would've thought they'd go with gas station. *Leaves briefly to check what season Human!Cas was in* ()

🇲🇫 Petit look smartcaz de ce jour au temps pluvieux et froid. (On ne voit pas mon parapluie, il était dans mon sac : petit parapluie télescopique noir, rien de spécial). Mais un manteau de pluie @hardyamieslndn khaki / olive, et non beige ni mastic comme les Macintosh originaux, casquette khaki, pantalons gris foncé mais pas trop @eleventy_milano , sneakers grises @santoniofficial , deux sacs noirs : une sacoche capsule @whitemountaineering_official X @eastpak_fr et un cabas @universalstandard . Considérations sur les sacs : d'aucuns prétendent son ne peut pas porter deux sacs en même temps : faux, s'ils ne sont pas du même type. Ici, c'est un peu délicat car l'un est à bandoulière et l'autre se porte à la main ou à l'épaule, mais s'ils ne tombent pas au même point, je ne vois rien de choquant. Le cabas pourrait être un sac à dos, mais pas une banane ; et la sacoche pourrait être une banane, mais pas un sac à dos. J'use souvent d'une sacoche avec un sac à dos, si je n'ai pas assez de poches, parce que je transporte souvent des choses. Le mieux pour le style est bien sûr de se limiter à un sac, grand maximum. Ça dépend du volume de ce que l'on porte, mais ma préférence va généralement au sac à dos si je ne porte pas de costume. Dans le cas contraire, mieux vaut toujours tout tenir à la main afin de préserver ce dernier. Le schéma de couleurs pourrait être différent suivant quelle tendance de ce look hybride on veut accentuer. #habillement#shabiller#modehomme#bienshabiller#gentleman#gentlemanstyle#ootdmen#outfitoftheday#mensweardaily#mensstyleguide#styleinspiration#styleinspo 🇬🇧 Outfit of this raincoat and cold day: grey pants (clearer than charcoal), grey sneakers, khaki raincoat (like mackintosh but neither a mac, nor a mastic colour), khaki cap, black bags. Some people would argue that you can't wear two bags together, but it is false as long as your #bags aren't the same type of bags. Anyway, practice life and duty are the most important. I don't do special shoots: all of my photo shoots are from daily life. The best is of course when you don't have to carry something ..

On 25th July 1843 Charles Macintosh, inventor of the plastic mac, died.

The son of a dyer, he decided at the age of 19 to pursue his interest in chemistry, opening a plant in the city of his birth to sell ammonium chloride and Prussian blue dye by the age of 20. He also set up Scotland’s first alum works at Hurlet, Renfrewshire, in 1797. But of course the thing for which he is best remembered is his rainproof “mac” coat.

While analysing the by-products of a works making coal gas in 1818, Macintosh discovered that one such substance possessed special properties. Naptha – a by-product of tar – as able to dissolve India rubber – found in trees – forming a paste that was impermeable to water.

Macintosh realised that he could combine the substance with cloth by sandwiching it between two pieces of fabric, creating the basis for waterproof clothing. He patented the process in 1823 and by the following year was producing the material.

The chemist set up his own company, joining forces with Thomas Hancock to perfect the process. The resulting raincoats – which ended up being manufactured in a range of styles – were named macs. Macintosh died in 1843 and was buried with his parents in Glasgow, but the Mackintosh company (the k was added later) went on long after his death. It was bought by Dunlop Rubber, another firm started by a Scotsman, in 1925 and continues to produce upmarket coats to this day.

Macintosh was honoured by a Google doodle in 2016 they wrote, “It’s a wonder how the weather-beaten Brits coped before Scottish chemist Charles Macintosh invented his eponymous waterproof coat.” Well the weather we have had so far this year a mac is certainly what is needed!

N.S. woman reunited with photos after lost camera washes up on N.B. beach

A Nova Scotia woman has been reunited with some precious memories after a camera she lost three years ago washed up on a New Brunswick beach.

Cindy Willigar booked a river rafting excursion on the Shubenacadie River in May 2015 to celebrate her friend’s 50th birthday.

“I went and purchased a waterproof disposable camera because I wanted to get memories of the trip for her because it was her 50th,” says Willigar.

After snapping several photos, she tucked the camera away in the pocket of her raincoat.

“He pulled up and we got out and I started walking up and I patted my side and I just felt sick because the camera wasn’t there,” recalls the Brookfield, N.S. resident.

Carried by the Bay of Fundy tides, the camera travelled more than 100 kilometres from South Maitland, N.S. over the next three years, eventually washing up on a beach in Dorchester Cape, N.B.

Chris McMahon was picking up garbage along the beach when he made the discovery.

“My foot bumped into it and I thought it was maybe a case for cigars or a waterproof-type case and I turned it over, it obviously was a camera,” says McMahon.

He had the photos developed and thought they looked like they had been taken in a part of Nova Scotia he had visited.

McMahon posted the photos on his Facebook page in an effort to track down the owner. Three hours later, Willigar was shocked when saw the post.

“I looked at the picture and … I couldn’t believe it, so I went up and I read his writeup with what happened, Chris’ writeup, and here Chris had picked it up on the beach,” says Willigar. “I never thought I’d get these back. Not in a million years did I think I’d get these back.”

McMahon says he’s thrilled he was able to reunite the photos with their rightful owner, despite having little information to go on.

“It’s almost like a message in a bottle, but in a picture format with no name, no address, and, you know, I kinda like finding stuff,” he says.

The unique experience has left Willigar filled with both gratitude and amazement at the power of social media, and the durability of waterproof disposable cameras.

“I guess it’s like Christmas. It’s surreal,” she says. “I mean, you expect them to be waterproof, but for how long? Three years? Three years in the elements?”

The owner of the rafting company is offering to give McMahon a free trip down the river. Willigar hopes that will also give her the chance to thank him in person.
