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.
