Description
10.10 oz. Army Duck Waxed Canvas Fabric – Marmalade (Bright Orange)
Marmalade is a bright orange 10.10 oz. Army Duck waxed canvas made from 100% cotton. This 58-inch-wide fabric has a tight weave, a medium hand, and a water-repellent wax finish. It gives tote bags, backpacks, shop aprons, and tool rolls enough body to hold their shape while staying flexible in use.
The matte orange finish works well for an all-over color or a contrasting pocket, panel, or trim. The waxed surface develops visible creases and a natural patina with handling. The wax finish is documented as safe for food contact.
Sold by the linear yard. Continuous rolls are available up to 60 yards. Orders of 10 yards or more ship on a roll. Orders of 9 yards or less ship folded.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much Marmalade waxed canvas comes in one yard?
One linear yard measures 36 inches long by 58 inches wide. The 10.10 oz. specification is the fabric weight per square yard.
How does Marmalade Army Duck waxed canvas handle rain?
The wax finish helps light rain and splashes bead on the surface. Water can enter through seams and closures or soak through the fabric with prolonged exposure.
Will Marmalade waxed canvas transfer color or wax?
Color can rub off or bleed, and some wax may transfer with contact. Test the canvas against your lining, trim, or contrasting fabric before sewing, especially if you’re pairing Marmalade with white or another light color.
How do I clean and re-wax Army Duck waxed canvas?
Brush away loose dirt or rinse with cool water. For spots, use a very soft brush with mild soap or saddle soap, then air-dry. Avoid machine washing, detergents, and direct ironing. When the finish wears, use a compatible fabric wax and follow the wax manufacturer’s instructions. See our waxed canvas care guide for more detail.
Can I order Marmalade orange waxed canvas wholesale?
Yes. Big Duck Canvas offers wholesale pricing and continuous rolls up to 60 yards. Manufacturers, designers, and other volume buyers can apply for a wholesale trade account.
