FAQs

How often should I rewax my jacket?

The frequency of rewaxing depends on how often you wear the jacket and in what conditions. A general guideline is once a year, or whenever you notice the water repellency has significantly decreased.

Can I iron this jacket?

Ironing is not recommended as high heat can damage the wax coating. If you need to remove creases, try hanging the jacket in a steamy bathroom or using a very low heat setting on an iron with a protective cloth placed between the iron and the jacket, but proceed with extreme caution.

What is the benefit of the corduroy collar?

The corduroy collar provides a softer feel against the skin compared to the waxed outer fabric and offers additional warmth and insulation around the neck. The chin strap adds extra protection against wind and cold.

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

While the waxed cotton offers good water resistance for light to moderate rain, it is not designed for prolonged exposure to heavy downpours. For extreme conditions, a dedicated waterproof jacket might be more suitable.

How do I clean minor dirt or mud from the jacket?

For minor dirt or mud, simply sponge the affected area with cold water using a damp cloth or sponge. Allow to air dry naturally. Avoid using soap or detergents.

What does 'Barbour embroidered on the sleeve' mean?

This refers to a small embroidered logo of the Barbour brand, typically found on the sleeve, signifying the jacket's origin and quality craftsmanship. Note: The provided product information states 'Barbour embroidered on the sleeve', however, the brand listed is 'HOMIES MARBELLA'. This may refer to a collaboration or a specific detail on this particular garment.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels stiff or sticky

This can happen if the wax coating is too heavy or has started to melt. Try hanging it in a cool place for a few days. If it persists, a very light sponge down with cold water might help, followed by drying at room temperature.

Water resistance is reduced

The wax coating may need to be reapplied. Purchase a suitable re-waxing product and follow the instructions carefully. Ensure the jacket is clean and dry before applying new wax.

Appearance of white marks or 'blooming'

This is a natural characteristic of waxed cotton and indicates the wax has cooled and solidified. It can usually be removed by gently warming the fabric with a hairdryer on a low setting or by wearing the jacket, as body heat will redistribute the wax.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable and water-resistant waxed cotton construction.
  • Multiple pockets for convenient storage.
  • Classic design with functional features like a corduroy collar and chin strap.
  • Secure zip and snap button closure system.

Cons

  • Waxed cotton requires specific care and maintenance.
  • May be heavier than non-waxed alternatives.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket requires no setup as it is ready to wear upon purchase. It is compatible with most casual wear.

Care Instructions:

  • Do not wash: Waxed cotton should not be machine washed or dry cleaned, as this can strip the wax finish.
  • Rewaxing: Periodically rewax the jacket to maintain its water resistance. Follow the specific instructions provided by the wax manufacturer.
  • Cleaning: To clean, sponge down the jacket with cold water using a damp cloth or sponge. Do not use soap or detergents.
  • Drying: Allow the jacket to dry naturally at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators or fires.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid storing in plastic bags, as this can cause the wax to sweat and affect the fabric.
