FAQs

Can I machine wash the Barbour Wren Waxed Jacket?

No, the jacket must not be machine washed. Cleaning should be done by sponging with a damp cloth only.

How do I maintain the waxed finish?

The wax finish can be maintained by periodic re-waxing, either professionally or using a Barbour-approved wax kit, to ensure its water-repellency.

What is the jacket made of?

The outer is made of 100% waxed cotton, and the inner lining is 100% polyester.

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The jacket is designed for light rain and showers due to its wax coating. It is not intended for heavy or prolonged rainfall.

How should I store the jacket?

Store the jacket in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place, preferably hanging, away from direct sunlight or heat sources to preserve the wax finish.

What is the purpose of the gingham trims?

The gingham trims are a stylistic detail that adds a classic Barbour aesthetic to the jacket's design.

Troubleshooting

Jacket appears dull or less water-repellent

The wax finish may need reapplication. Consider professional re-waxing or using a Barbour-approved wax kit following the product instructions.

Minor dirt or marks on the fabric

Gently sponge clean the affected area with a damp cloth. Allow to air dry. Avoid washing.

Stiff fabric after drying

This is normal for waxed cotton. The fabric will soften with wear and body heat. Ensure it is fully air-dried away from direct heat.
