No. Machine washing will permanently strip the wax coating and damage the garment.
For moderate use, once a year is standard. If you wear it daily in harsh conditions, you may need to re-wax it every 6 months.
The jacket provides excellent wind resistance, but it is not insulated. It is best suited for layering during transitional seasons.
Shake off excess water and hang it on a coat hanger in a ventilated area to dry naturally. Avoid heat sources.
Barbour jackets are designed to have a slightly relaxed fit to accommodate layering, so stick to your standard size for the intended fit.
The jacket likely needs to be re-waxed. Use an official Barbour wax dressing kit to restore the finish.
Allow the mud to dry, then gently brush it off. If a residue remains, wipe the area with a cold, damp sponge.
Ensure the jacket is not over-waxed and let it hang in a warm room for 24 hours to allow the wax to soak fully into the cotton fibers.
As a waxed garment, this jacket does not require 'setup' but does require consistent care to remain effective. Avoid folding the jacket for long periods to prevent creasing the wax coating. For cleaning, wipe down the exterior with a cold, damp sponge; never use soap, detergents, or chemical cleaners, as these will strip the wax. The jacket should be re-waxed periodically—typically once a year or more depending on frequency of use—to maintain its water-repellent properties. Always hang the jacket in a well-ventilated area to dry if it becomes damp, ensuring it is kept away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can melt the wax.
