The Gant Waxed Barn Jacket is designed for adults seeking a versatile, stylish outerwear piece that balances utility with a classic aesthetic. Crafted from a cotton-rich blend with a durable wax coating, it offers reliable protection against light rain, making it an excellent choice for unpredictable transitional weather. While its regular fit and recycled polyester padding provide comfortable warmth, potential buyers should note that the wax finish requires specific care and is best suited for light moisture rather than heavy downpours.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
It is water-repellent, meaning it sheds water in light weather conditions, but it is not waterproof for heavy rain.
Can I put this jacket in the washing machine?
No, machine washing will remove the wax coating and damage the garment. Spot clean only with a damp cloth.
What is the fit of the jacket?
It is designed with a regular fit, providing a comfortable, classic silhouette that allows for layering.
What material is the padding made from?
The jacket is padded with recycled polyester.
How do I adjust the waist?
There is an interior drawcord located inside the jacket that you can pull and secure to adjust the fit around your waist.
Troubleshooting
Water is no longer beading on the surface of the fabric.
The DWR finish may be wearing off; consider applying a recommended wax treatment or having the jacket professionally re-waxed.
Stiffness in the zipper.
Gently rub the teeth of the zipper with a pencil lead (graphite) to act as a dry lubricant, or use a specialized zipper wax.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This garment does not require assembly, but proper care is essential to maintain its performance. Due to the waxed nature of the fabric, you should avoid machine washing or dry cleaning, as this will strip away the protective coating. Instead, spot clean the jacket with a cold, damp cloth. If the fabric appears dry over time, it may require professional re-waxing to maintain its water-repellent properties. Store the jacket in a cool, dry place on a sturdy hanger to preserve its structure.
