FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The Tracker Jacket is showerproof, meaning it can withstand light to moderate rain. For heavy or prolonged rainfall, a fully waterproof jacket would be more appropriate.

How should I clean the corduroy collar?

The corduroy collar can be cleaned along with the rest of the jacket according to the care instructions. Gentle brushing after drying can help restore the texture of the corduroy.

What is the fit like?

The jacket has a regular fit. It is recommended to take your usual size for a comfortable fit that allows for layering underneath.

Can I machine wash this jacket?

Yes, the jacket can typically be machine washed, but always check the specific care label inside the garment for the recommended temperature and cycle. Use a mild detergent and wash separately.

Does the jacket have a hood?

No, this specific model, the Tracker Showerproof Jacket, does not come with a hood. It features a sit-down collar.

What does 'showerproof' mean?

'Showerproof' indicates that the fabric is treated to resist water penetration from light or moderate rain for a limited time. It is not designed to be fully waterproof against heavy downpours or prolonged exposure to wet conditions.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer repelling water effectively.

The showerproof coating may have diminished. Consider reproofing the jacket using a specific Barbour reproofing wax or spray, following the product's instructions. Ensure the garment is clean before application.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth to improve smoothness.

Tartan lining appears faded.

Fading may occur over time with extensive wear and washing. To minimize further fading, wash inside out in cold water and avoid direct sunlight when drying.
