FAQs

Can I wash my Barbour wax jacket in a washing machine?

No, you must never machine wash, dry clean, or use hot water on your wax jacket, as this will permanently remove the protective wax coating.

How often should I re-wax the jacket?

The frequency depends on usage. If you wear it daily in wet weather, you may need to re-wax it once a year. If it is used occasionally, every two to three years may suffice.

Is the jacket warm enough for winter?

The Donnington Wax is designed as a versatile layer. It is excellent for autumn and spring, but for deep winter, you should layer it over heavier knits or a thermal base layer.

What should I do if my jacket gets wet?

Allow it to dry naturally in a well-ventilated room. Do not place it near direct heat sources like radiators or open fires, as this can damage the wax.

How do I choose the right size?

This jacket is designed for layering. If you intend to wear heavy sweaters underneath, consider your usual size or check the specific measurements provided for your chosen size.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels less water-resistant than before

The wax coating has likely worn thin; perform a re-waxing process using an official Barbour wax dressing.

Dirt or mud on the surface

Wait for the mud to dry, then gently brush it off. Use a cool, damp cloth to remove any remaining residue.

Wax marks on clothing underneath

This can happen if the jacket is over-waxed or exposed to extreme heat. Ensure the wax is fully absorbed by using a hairdryer on a low setting after applying new wax, and wipe off any excess.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Donnington Wax jacket remains in peak condition, proper care is essential. Never use soap or detergents when cleaning, as these will strip the wax coating. Instead, use a damp cloth and cold water to wipe away surface dirt. If the jacket loses its water-repellent properties, you will need to apply a fresh layer of wax dressing. Always store your jacket in a cool, dry, well-ventilated space; avoid folding it for long periods to prevent creases in the wax. Because it is a structured garment, ensure you choose the size that allows for comfortable layering underneath, especially if you plan to wear thick knits.
