FAQs

Can I wash my Barbour jacket in the washing machine?

No, never wash your waxed jacket in a machine or have it dry cleaned, as this will strip away the protective wax finish.

How often should I re-wax my jacket?

Depending on usage, most owners re-wax their jackets once a year to ensure continued weather protection.

Is this jacket waterproof?

It is highly water-resistant, making it perfect for light to moderate rain, though it is not technically classified as a fully waterproof garment.

How should I store the jacket during summer?

Store it in a well-ventilated, cool area away from direct sunlight, and avoid storing it in a plastic bag.

Will the wax transfer to my clothes?

While unlikely if properly maintained, a brand-new jacket might feel slightly tacky. Avoid wearing the jacket over light-colored delicate fabrics until it has been worn in.

Troubleshooting

The jacket has lost its water repellency.

Apply a fresh layer of Barbour wax dressing to the surface of the jacket following the manufacturer's instructions.

The jacket feels stiff.

Waxed cotton is designed to soften with regular wear; continue using the jacket, and it will become more pliable over time.

Dirt or mud on the surface.

Allow the mud to dry, brush it off gently, and wipe down the area with a cold, damp sponge.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Timeless and versatile design that pairs well with various outfits
  • Excellent wind and water resistance properties
  • Highly durable materials built for years of wear
  • Iconic brand aesthetic with historical significance

Cons

  • Requires periodic re-waxing to maintain water repellency
  • Waxed finish can feel stiff when the jacket is brand new
  • Limited breathability compared to modern synthetic technical fabrics

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Since this is a structured garment, ensure you select the correct size (e.g., Size S) for your preferred layering style. To care for your jacket, never machine wash or dry clean the item, as this will destroy the wax coating. Instead, clean the exterior with cold water and a soft sponge. To maintain its water-repellent performance, the jacket should be re-waxed periodically using official Barbour wax dressing. Store the jacket in a cool, dry place and ensure it is not stored while damp to prevent mold growth.
