Barbour Treeton Wax Jacket - Black - S

No. Machine washing will ruin the wax coating and compromise the jacket's water-repellent properties.

The frequency depends on usage. If you wear it daily in wet weather, you may need to re-wax it once a year.

It is an excellent outer shell, but you should layer it with warmer garments underneath as it is not heavily insulated.

A slight tacky feel is normal for waxed cotton. If it feels excessively sticky, store the jacket in a cooler, airy space to allow the wax to settle.

A hair dryer can be used carefully to soften the wax for even distribution, but keep it at a distance to avoid overheating or damaging the cotton fabric.

Gently wipe the exterior with a cold, damp sponge or cloth. Do not use soap or detergents.

The wax coating has likely worn thin; you should re-apply a Barbour-approved wax dressing to restore weather resistance.

Hang the jacket in a well-ventilated room or outdoors in a shaded, breezy area to air it out.
