FAQs
What type of weather is this jacket best suited for?
The Marron Wax Jacket is best suited for light rain and windy conditions. It provides good protection against moderate moisture but is not designed for heavy downpours.
How should I clean the jacket?
You should not machine wash the jacket. Clean it by sponging with a damp cloth only. Avoid using any detergents or washing agents.
Can I store this jacket in my wardrobe?
Yes, but ensure the area is cool and dry. High temperatures can affect the waxed finish. Avoid storing it near heat sources.
Will the wax rub off on my car seats or furniture?
New waxed jackets can sometimes transfer a small amount of wax. It's advisable to wear the jacket for a period to allow it to settle, or place a cloth barrier between the jacket and delicate surfaces initially.
How often should I re-wax the jacket?
The frequency of re-waxing depends on usage and environmental conditions. If you notice reduced water repellency, it may be time to re-wax. Barbour recommends re-waxing every 12-18 months with regular use.
What is the inner lining made of?
The inner lining is a blend of 65% polyester and 35% cotton, providing a comfortable interior.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels stiff after cleaning
This is normal as the wax coating settles. Wear the jacket outdoors in mild weather to help soften the fabric.
Wax residue on other clothing
This can happen with new waxed jackets. Allow the jacket to 'cure' for a few weeks or wipe the interior lining with a dry cloth before wearing with light-coloured garments.
Loss of water repellency
The jacket may need re-waxing. Refer to Barbour's official guidelines or their re-waxing service for restoration.
