No, absolutely not. Machine washing or dry cleaning will strip the jacket of its protective wax coating and can damage the fabric. Please refer to the care label for specific instructions, which typically recommend wiping clean only.
The frequency depends on usage, but typically, re-waxing is recommended once a year to maintain its waterproof qualities. If you notice areas losing their water repellency, it's time to re-wax.
Sylkoil wax is a specific type of waxed cotton finish used by Barbour. It's known for its drier, matte finish compared to traditional waxy finishes, while still providing excellent water resistance and durability.
Yes, the Barbour Corbridge Wax Jacket features a practical stow-away hood with toggles, which can be zipped into the collar when not in use.
The jacket features a quilted lining for warmth and is ideal for colder wet weather. For extreme sub-zero temperatures, you may need to layer additional warm clothing underneath due to its medium-weight construction.
Creases and marks are a natural characteristic of waxed cotton and add to the jacket's unique patina over time. They are generally not defects and contribute to its authentic aesthetic.
The lining is a 2-inch polyamide quilted 50g wadding, designed to provide warmth and comfort.
Wax jackets, especially new ones, can feel stiff. Wear it frequently; the fabric will soften and mold to your body over time, becoming more comfortable.
The wax coating wears down with use. Re-waxing is required. Purchase Barbour Thornproof Dressing or send it to an authorized Barbour re-proofing service.
This often occurs if the jacket is stored wet or in a damp environment. Air it out thoroughly in a well-ventilated area. If the smell persists, professional re-waxing might be needed, as they can sometimes clean the fabric underneath.
New wax jackets can sometimes shed a bit of wax. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored fabrics or upholstery initially. This usually reduces after a few wears and after the first re-waxing.
Upon receiving your Barbour Corbridge Wax Jacket, it's ready to wear. Its design is compatible with various layering options, from light sweaters to heavier knits, depending on the weather.
