Product Information

Full details

The Barbour Icons Beaufort Wax Jacket is designed for the discerning adult male seeking a blend of British heritage, rugged durability, and timeless style. This iconic piece excels as a versatile outer layer for outdoor activities and everyday urban wear, providing significant weather resistance through its signature waxed finish. A key caveat to keep in mind is that the traditional waxed cotton material requires regular maintenance and re-waxing to preserve its water-repellent properties over time.

FAQs

How often should I re-wax my Beaufort jacket?

It is generally recommended to re-wax your jacket once a year, or more frequently if you notice the water is no longer beading on the surface.

Can I put my Barbour jacket in the washing machine?

No. You should never machine wash or dry clean a waxed cotton jacket, as this will permanently remove the wax coating.

What should I do if the jacket gets soaked?

Hang the jacket on a sturdy hanger in a well-ventilated area and allow it to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators.

Will the jacket become less stiff over time?

Yes, as the cotton breaks in and the wax softens with body heat and regular wear, the jacket will become more comfortable and pliable.

Can I wear other layers underneath?

The Beaufort is traditionally cut to allow for layering, making it easy to wear a sweater or light jacket underneath during colder weather.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels dry or is absorbing water

The fabric is due for a re-waxing to restore its protective barrier.

Dirt or mud on the surface

Allow the mud to dry and brush it off, or wipe with a damp cloth; do not use soap.

Wax transfer to car seats or furniture

This can happen with new or freshly waxed jackets; use a protective layer between the jacket and surfaces until the wax settles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because this jacket uses traditional waxed cotton, proper care is essential to extend its lifespan. Never clean the jacket using harsh chemicals or laundry detergents, as these will strip the protective wax. To clean, use a damp cloth and cold water only, gently wiping away any dirt. To maintain its water-repellent performance, the jacket should be re-waxed annually or whenever the fabric starts to look dry or loses its sheen. Store the garment in a cool, dry place and ensure it is not stored in plastic bags, as the material needs to breathe. Be aware that the wax can sometimes transfer to other surfaces when the jacket is new or freshly re-waxed, so avoid contact with light-colored upholstery.
