FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The Barbour International Longline Kyra Waterproof Jacket is specifically designed and recommended for protection against light drizzle and moderate wet conditions. For heavy downpours, you might consider a jacket with a higher waterproof rating or additional storm features.

How should I wash this jacket?

You should machine wash this jacket according to the care instructions on its label. Typically, this involves a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water and a mild, non-biological detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach, and always air dry.

What materials is the jacket made from?

The jacket features an outer face of 100% Polyester with a 100% Polyurethane waterproof membrane. The lining is also 100% Polyester, ensuring a soft and comfortable feel.

What is a snorkel hood?

A snorkel hood is a type of hood designed to enclose the head and face almost completely, with only a small opening ('snorkel') left for vision. It typically has adjustable drawstrings to tighten around the face, offering maximum protection from wind, rain, and cold.

Does this jacket have pockets?

Info needed: [Details on pocket type, number, and closure mechanism (e.g., zip, snap, open).]

Is the jacket breathable?

Yes, the jacket is designed to be breathable, thanks to its membrane construction. This allows moisture vapor from your body to escape, helping to regulate your temperature and keep you comfortable.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels less waterproof over time.

This can happen if the DWR coating wears off or the fabric is dirty. Ensure you are washing it according to the care instructions, avoiding fabric softeners. Consider using a DWR-restoring wash-in or spray product designed for waterproof garments, if appropriate for the material.

Hood doesn't stay in place.

Adjust the drawstrings on the snorkel hood. Cinch them firmly to secure the hood around your face, providing a snug fit that resists wind and rain more effectively.

Jacket feels stiff or crinkly after washing.

Ensure you are using a gentle cycle and avoiding high heat during washing or drying. Always air dry the jacket completely. Over-drying or using harsh detergents can sometimes affect the fabric's texture.

Unpleasant odour developing.

Ensure the jacket is always completely dry before storage. If an odour persists, wash the jacket thoroughly with a specialized outdoor gear cleaner to remove bacteria and residues, then air dry.

Care Instructions

Proper care will maintain the jacket's waterproof properties and extend its lifespan. Always refer to the care label inside the garment for the most accurate instructions.

  1. Machine Wash: The jacket is machine washable. Use a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water.
  2. Detergent: Use a mild, non-biological detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, bleach, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the waterproof membrane and DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish.

  4. Ironing: Do not iron.
  5. Storage: Store the jacket in a cool, dry place when not in use.
