Driza-Bone oilskin jacket

Driza-Bone is an iconic Australian brand established in 1898 by Emilius Le Roy, renowned for its durable oilskin jackets and coats designed to withstand the harsh Australian climate. The brand's name, 'Driza-Bone,' is a colloquial term for 'dry as a bone,' reflecting its waterproof qualities. Over the years, Driza-Bone has expanded its product line to include a variety of outerwear and accessories, maintaining a strong association with the Australian outback lifestyle. In 2008, the brand returned to Australian ownership when Melbourne-based private investors acquired it, leading to the relocation of its head office and key operations to Melbourne, while manufacturing continued in Eagleby, Queensland. The brand's commitment to quality and functionality has solidified its status as a symbol of Australian resilience and adventure. As of 2025, Driza-Bone is owned by DB Trademarks Pty Ltd, which holds the trademark for the brand, ensuring its continued presence in the market.
