FAQs
Can I wash this jacket in a washing machine?
No. Machine washing will permanently strip the wax coating and damage the fabric. Use only a cold, damp cloth to clean.
Is the jacket fully waterproof?
It is highly water-resistant, making it excellent for rain showers, but it is not classified as fully waterproof like technical GORE-TEX gear.
How should I store the jacket during summer?
Store it in a cool, well-ventilated area on a wide, sturdy hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulders.
What does the throat flap do?
The throat flap can be fastened across the neck when the collar is turned up to provide extra protection against wind and rain.
Will the wax rub off on my car seats?
When the jacket is new or freshly re-waxed, it may feel slightly tacky. It is best to avoid direct contact with delicate upholstery for the first few wears.
Can I layer underneath this jacket?
Yes, the cut is designed to accommodate light layers like sweaters or shirts underneath while maintaining mobility.
Troubleshooting
The jacket surface looks dry or dull.
This is a sign the wax coating is wearing off; apply a fresh layer of wax dressing to restore water resistance.
The zipper feels stuck.
Check for debris in the track and ensure the fabric is not caught; if it remains stubborn, lightly rub a pencil lead or beeswax along the teeth.
Stains on the fabric.
Spot clean only with cold water and a clean sponge. Do not scrub harshly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your jacket, avoid storing it in plastic garment bags, which can trap moisture and cause mildew. Keep the jacket away from direct heat sources like radiators, as these can melt the wax finish. Cleaning should be done by sponge-wiping with cold water only; never use soap, detergents, or dry cleaning services, as these will strip the protective wax. Should the jacket lose its water-repellency over time, you can re-apply Barbour-approved wax dressing to the surface to restore its performance.
