Barbour Waxed Spey Jacket - Green - Plaid - XS

No, you must never machine wash, dry clean, or tumble dry a waxed jacket as these methods will destroy the wax finish.

Depending on usage, a light-to-moderate re-waxing is recommended annually to maintain optimum water resistance.

The jacket is water-resistant, making it perfect for rain showers, but it is not intended for prolonged exposure to heavy, torrential downpours.

When new or freshly waxed, there may be a slight amount of wax residue; avoid contact with light-colored upholstery until the wax has fully settled.

Barbour jackets are designed for layering, so consider if you plan to wear bulky sweaters underneath when selecting your size.

Apply a fresh coat of Barbour wax dressing to the cotton shell to restore its waterproof finish.

Ensure the zipper is clear of lint or wax buildup; applying a small amount of paraffin wax or a graphite pencil lead to the teeth can help lubricate the mechanism.

These are normal characteristics of waxed cotton and can be minimized by gently heating the surface with a hairdryer on a low setting or simply re-waxing the garment.
