FAQs

Can I wash my Barbour jacket in the washing machine?

No. Never put a waxed jacket in a washing machine or tumble dryer, as it will ruin the wax coating and potentially damage the fabric.

How often should I re-wax my jacket?

Frequency depends on usage, but generally once a year is recommended if you wear the jacket regularly.

Is this jacket waterproof?

It is water-resistant. It will keep you dry in light to moderate rain, but it is not intended for heavy, prolonged downpours.

Does the jacket come in different sizes?

Yes, it is available in various sizes ranging from S to XL to ensure a comfortable fit.

Can I wear this jacket during the winter?

Yes, its design allows for layering, making it suitable for winter when paired with warm knitwear or insulating layers.

Is the jacket heavy?

It has a substantial feel due to the quality of the waxed cotton, providing a more robust feel than synthetic alternatives.

Troubleshooting

The fabric looks dry or is absorbing water.

The jacket needs to be re-waxed using official Barbour wax dressing.

Surface dirt or mud stains.

Allow the mud to dry, then brush it off gently with a soft-bristled brush. Wipe the area with a cold, damp sponge.

The jacket has a slight smell.

Hang it outside in a well-ventilated area for a day, away from direct sunlight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Taking care of your Barbour International Original Waxed Jacket is essential for its longevity. Because it is made of waxed cotton, it should never be machine washed or dry cleaned, as this will strip away the protective finish. To clean, use a soft sponge and cold water to wipe off any dirt. If the jacket begins to dry out or loses its water-shedding capability, you will need to apply a fresh layer of wax dressing. For storage, hang the jacket in a cool, dry, well-ventilated space, and ensure it is not kept in direct contact with other garments when freshly waxed, as the wax can transfer. Avoid storing in plastic bags, as this can encourage mold growth.
