FAQs
What type of weather is this jacket best suited for?
The Barbour Reversible Korbel Jacket is ideal for transitional weather, offering protection against light showers and wind. It is not designed for heavy rain or cold winter conditions.
How do I choose the right size?
The jacket features a regular fit. Refer to the back length measurement (69 cm for size S) and compare it with your own measurements or a similar jacket you own to ensure a good fit.
Can I wear both sides of the jacket outwards?
Yes, the jacket is designed to be fully reversible, allowing you to wear either the outer shell or the inner lining as the primary look.
What is the difference between the outer and inner materials?
The outer is 100% polyamide. The inner face is 100% polyester, and the inner back is 100% polyurethane, contributing to its showerproof qualities.
How should I clean the jacket?
Machine wash at 30°C and wash separately. Avoid bleaching, tumble drying, and dry cleaning. Iron on a low heat setting if needed, avoiding prints.
Does the stand collar offer additional protection?
Yes, the stand collar helps to shield your neck from wind and features a distinctive tartan-patterned inner lining for added style and comfort.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is not completely waterproof.
This jacket is designed for showerproof protection, not heavy rain. For significant downpours, consider a fully waterproof garment. Ensure all zips and closures are properly fastened.
Material feels stiff after washing.
This can sometimes occur with polyamide fabrics. Try ironing on a low heat setting (avoiding prints) or wearing the jacket to help soften the material.
Color transfer from one side to the other.
Wash separately as instructed to prevent color bleeding. If transfer has occurred, re-wash separately at 30°C.
