FAQs

What is the primary purpose of an overshirt?

An overshirt is designed to be worn as an intermediate layer, providing more warmth than a shirt but less than a jacket. It offers versatile styling options.

Can I wear this Barbour Overshirt in wet weather?

While wool offers some natural water resistance, this overshirt is not waterproof. It is best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions and is designed for warmth and layering.

How should I choose my size?

The overshirt is designed for layered wear. Consider your typical layering habits; if you plan to wear thicker items underneath, you may want to size up. Refer to the size chart for specific measurements.

Is the wool ethically sourced?

Barbour is committed to responsible sourcing. Specific details on wool sourcing can typically be found on the brand's official website or in their sustainability reports.

How do I care for the wool to ensure longevity?

The best care is dry cleaning. If absolutely necessary, hand wash in cool water with a wool-specific detergent and lay flat to dry. Avoid harsh detergents, machine washing, and tumble drying.

What occasions is this overshirt suitable for?

It is ideal for casual outings, smart-casual events, and everyday wear. Its structured design allows it to be dressed up or down depending on the accompanying items.

Troubleshooting

Overshirt loses shape after cleaning

Ensure you are following the dry clean only instructions. If hand-washed, use cool water and a wool-specific detergent, and lay flat to dry. Never wring or tumble dry wool.

Wool feels itchy

This can sometimes occur with natural wool fibers. Layering over a thin, soft base layer like cotton or merino wool can mitigate any potential irritation.

Pilling on the wool surface

Pilling is natural for wool. Use a fabric shaver or a fine-tooth comb gently to remove any small pills. Avoid excessive rubbing.
