FAQs

How should I clean my Barbour Corbridge Wax Jacket?

Do not machine wash, hand wash, or dry clean the jacket. For general cleaning, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, allow it to dry and brush it off. Always refer to the specific care label inside your jacket.

Is this jacket waterproof?

The waxed cotton material provides excellent water resistance, offering significant protection against rain and damp conditions. While not entirely waterproof like a technical rain shell, it is highly effective in typical wet weather.

How often should I re-wax the jacket?

Regular re-waxing is recommended annually or as needed, depending on the frequency of wear and exposure to elements. Re-waxing maintains the jacket's protective qualities and appearance.

What is the primary material of this jacket?

The Barbour Corbridge Wax Jacket is primarily crafted from durable and water-resistant waxed cotton.

Can I wear this jacket in warmer weather?

While designed for cooler temperatures due to its protective material, it can be worn in milder weather. However, it may be too warm for hot summer days.

How do I choose the right size?

Barbour jackets generally run true to size. It's advisable to consider how you plan to layer underneath when selecting your size. If possible, refer to a Barbour size guide or try the jacket on for the best fit.

What does 'refer to care label' mean for composition?

The specific composition, including lining materials, can vary. Always check the physical care label sewn into your individual jacket for the most accurate and detailed material information.

Troubleshooting

Jacket's wax finish appears worn or faded

This is a normal sign of wear for waxed cotton. Consider professional re-waxing or use a Barbour-approved re-waxing kit to restore the protective coating and water resistance.

Jacket feels stiff or uncomfortable initially

The waxed cotton material will soften and mold to your body over time with regular wear. This 'breaking in' period is normal and will improve comfort.

Snap closures on pockets are difficult to fasten

Ensure the fabric is flat and align the male and female parts of the snap directly before applying firm, even pressure. Avoid forcing them if misaligned to prevent damage.

Jacket develops a strong, 'waxy' odor

A slight waxy scent is normal for new waxed cotton jackets. It typically dissipates over time with airing. Store in a well-ventilated area.

Care Instructions:

  • Do Not Wash: This jacket should never be machine washed, hand washed, or dry cleaned. Washing will strip the wax coating and damage the fabric.
  • Refer to Care Label: Always consult the specific care label attached to your jacket for detailed manufacturer instructions.
  • Cleaning: For dirt or mud, allow it to dry and then brush it off with a soft brush. For general cleaning, wipe the jacket exterior with a damp cloth (cold water only).
  • Re-waxing: To maintain the jacket's water resistance and appearance, periodic re-waxing is essential. This typically needs to be done annually, or more frequently depending on usage. Use Barbour's official thornproof dressing and follow their specific re-waxing instructions or seek a professional re-waxing service.
  • Storage: Store the jacket in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Do not store in airtight bags as the wax needs to breathe.
