FAQs

Can I put my Barbour jacket in the washing machine?

No. Washing machines and detergents will permanently strip the wax from the cotton, destroying its weather-resistant properties.

How often does this jacket need to be re-waxed?

Depending on usage, most owners find that re-waxing once a year is sufficient to keep the fabric in top condition.

Is this jacket windproof?

Yes, the dense weave of the waxed cotton provides excellent protection against cold winds.

Where is the Bedale jacket made?

Barbour wax jackets are hand-finished in the United Kingdom, maintaining the brand's long-standing tradition of British craftsmanship.

Will the wax transfer to my car seat or other clothes?

If properly maintained and not excessively waxed, transfer is minimal. However, avoid sitting on light-colored fabric immediately after a fresh wax application.

Troubleshooting

Water no longer beads on the surface of the jacket.

The wax coating has worn thin; apply a fresh layer of Barbour wax dressing according to product instructions.

The jacket has a slight sticky or waxy feel.

This is normal for new or freshly re-waxed jackets. Hang in a warm room for 24 hours to allow the wax to fully absorb into the fibers.

Surface dirt or mud on the fabric.

Allow the mud to dry, brush it off, and wipe the area clean with a damp, cold-water cloth. Never use soap or detergents.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable, weather-resistant construction
  • Timeless aesthetic suitable for town and country
  • Hand-finished quality backed by a long heritage
  • Develops a unique patina over years of wear

Cons

  • Requires periodic rewaxing to maintain water resistance
  • Waxed finish can feel slightly heavy compared to modern technical fabrics
  • Limited machine washability due to the waxed coating

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Unlike modern technical garments, the Barbour Icons Bedale requires mindful care to remain functional. Do not machine wash or dry clean, as these processes will strip the protective wax from the cotton fabric. To clean, wipe away surface dirt with a cold-water sponge.

To maintain the water-resistant finish, inspect the jacket annually for signs of dryness or light patches. If water stops beading on the surface, it is time to apply a fresh layer of Barbour wax dressing. Ensure you store the jacket in a cool, well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources to prevent the wax from melting or transferring to other items.
