Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your jacket lasts for years, follow these guidelines:
- Cleaning: Never use soap or detergents. Clean the jacket only by wiping it down with a damp cloth or sponge in cold water.
- Re-waxing: To maintain water-repellent performance, re-apply Barbour wax dressing periodically. This is typically required once every year depending on how frequently the jacket is worn.
- Storage: Always hang your jacket in a well-ventilated area. Avoid storing it while damp in a confined space, as this can encourage mold growth on the waxed fabric.
- Compatibility: The jacket fits true to size, but consider the amount of layering you intend to wear underneath when selecting your fit.
