FAQs
Can I wash my Barbour Spey jacket in the washing machine?

What does the 6oz weight mean?
This refers to the weight of the cotton fabric used, indicating a sturdy, durable material that provides a balance between protection and weight.
Is the jacket warm enough for winter?
The Spey is designed as a transitional jacket; it is best for autumn and spring, though it can be layered for added warmth.
Why is there a D-ring on the chest?
It is a heritage feature originally intended for attaching fishing gear or other small outdoor accessories.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels less water-resistant over time
The wax coating has likely worn down; have the jacket professionally re-waxed.
Surface dirt or mud stains
Gently wipe the area with a cold, damp sponge. Avoid harsh soaps or detergents.
Wax transfer to interior garments
Ensure the wax has properly 'cured' after professional re-waxing before wearing against delicate light-colored fabrics.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this jacket is made from waxed cotton, it requires special attention to maintain its performance. Do not dry clean or machine wash the garment, as this will remove the protective wax coating. Instead, clean the exterior by wiping it down with a cold, damp sponge to remove surface dirt. For long-term maintenance, the jacket should be re-waxed periodically by a professional to ensure it remains water-repellent. Always hang the jacket on a sturdy hanger in a well-ventilated area to dry if it becomes damp, avoiding direct heat sources like radiators, which can damage the wax finish.
