Barbour Mens Icons Ashby Casual Jacket - Ivy Green

The Ashby jacket is ideal for mild to cool weather, offering protection against light wind and rain. It's perfect for spring, autumn, and gentle winter days.

Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer or Barbour. It is recommended to measure your chest and compare it with the specifications. Consider that this jacket is designed for layering, so some prefer to size up.

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the wax coating and fabric. Hand wash or sponge clean only, following the care instructions.

The frequency depends on usage and environmental conditions. For optimal water repellency, rewaxing can be done annually or when you notice a significant decrease in protection.

The Ashby generally features a slimmer, more contemporary fit compared to the slightly more traditional and longer cut of the Bedale. Both are made from robust waxed cotton.

The standard Ashby jacket does not come with an attached hood, but many Barbour hoods are available separately and can be attached via the studded collar if compatible.

This is often temporary. Ensure the jacket is completely dry and wear it to help restore flexibility. For persistent stiffness, consider Barbour's recommended conditioning products.

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.

The jacket may require rewaxing. Consult Barbour's official care guide for instructions on how to reapply wax or seek professional rewaxing services.
