Setup, Compatibility & Care
Proper care is essential to extending the life of your Barbour jacket.
- Cleaning: Never use soap or detergents on the waxed cotton. Clean the surface by brushing off dirt and wiping with a cold-water-dampened cloth.
- Re-waxing: To restore water repellency, apply Barbour wax dressing annually or when the jacket begins to look dry or loses its water-beading performance.
- Storage: Always store in a cool, well-ventilated area. Avoid placing the jacket near sources of heat, such as radiators, as this can degrade the wax coating.
- Compatibility: The neutral black aesthetic makes it highly compatible with various layers, including denim, wool scarves, and waterproof boots.
