FAQs

What is an overshirt?

An overshirt is a shirt designed to be worn over other layers of clothing, such as t-shirts or base layers. It typically falls between a traditional shirt and a jacket in terms of warmth and protection.

Is this overshirt suitable for winter?

While the wool provides warmth, this overshirt is best suited as a mid-layer or for milder winter conditions. For significant cold or harsh weather, additional outer layers will be necessary.

How do I determine the right size?

Consider what you plan to wear underneath. If layering over thicker items like sweaters, you may wish to size up. Refer to the brand's specific sizing chart for detailed measurements.

Can I machine wash the Barbour Overshirt?

No, machine washing is not recommended for this wool overshirt. It should be dry cleaned only to preserve its material and structure.

What kind of material is it made from?

The overshirt is made from wool, offering natural insulation and a premium feel.

What is the difference between this and a jacket?

An overshirt is generally lighter and less structured than a typical jacket. It's designed for layering and moderate warmth, whereas a jacket often provides more substantial protection from the elements.

Troubleshooting

Overshirt appears misshapen after cleaning

Ensure the overshirt was dry cleaned according to instructions. If it was washed, reshape while damp and lay flat to dry. For severe misshaping, professional garment repair may be needed.

Wool feels scratchy or irritating

Wool can sometimes feel less soft initially. Wearing a base layer underneath can mitigate irritation. Repeated wear and professional dry cleaning can also help soften the wool over time.

Color fading or bleeding

This can occur if the garment is not dry cleaned properly. Ensure you use a reputable dry cleaner experienced with wool garments. Avoid direct sunlight exposure when storing.
