FAQs

Can I put my Barbour Carville Wax Jacket in the washing machine?

No. Machine washing will permanently strip the protective wax finish and damage the garment. Only use cold water and a sponge for cleaning.

How often does the jacket need to be re-waxed?

This depends on frequency of use. If you notice water no longer beads off the surface, it is time to re-apply the wax.

Is this jacket suitable for winter?

It serves as an excellent outer shell. When layered with insulating knitwear, it is very capable of handling cold autumn and mild winter temperatures.

Does the jacket fit true to size?

The Carville model follows standard sizing. If you intend to wear heavy layers underneath, you may consider if your normal size provides enough room for comfort.

Can I iron the jacket?

No, do not iron the wax jacket as the heat will melt the wax and potentially damage the fabric.

Troubleshooting

The jacket is losing its water-repellent properties.

The wax coating has likely worn down. Apply a fresh coat of Barbour wax dressing to restore the water-resistant finish.

Surface dirt or dust is visible on the jacket.

Use a soft brush or a cold, damp cloth to gently wipe the exterior clean. Avoid scrubbing or using heat.

The jacket has a slight wax odor.

This is normal for new or freshly waxed garments. Hang the jacket in a well-ventilated area for a few days to allow the scent to dissipate.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent wind and water resistance provided by the waxed finish
  • Timeless design that maintains style through multiple seasons
  • Durable construction ensures longevity with proper care
  • Versatile enough for both rural outdoor activities and city wear

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your jacket remains in top condition, avoid storing it in plastic bags, as the fabric needs to breathe. If the jacket becomes dirty, use a damp cloth and cold water to spot-clean the exterior; never use soap or detergents as these will strip the wax finish. For long-term maintenance, the jacket should be professionally re-waxed or treated with approved Barbour wax dressing once the water-repellent finish begins to diminish. Proper storage in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area is essential for protecting the integrity of the cotton and wax.
