Full details
The Barbour Hereford Wax Jacket is an ideal choice for the modern outdoorsman seeking a blend of heritage style and practical weather protection.

FAQs
Can I wash the Barbour Hereford in a washing machine?
No, you should never machine wash or dry clean a waxed jacket, as it will ruin the waterproof coating.
How do I remove dirt from the jacket?
Use a sponge or soft cloth dipped in cold water to wipe off any dirt or debris.
Is this jacket warm enough for deep winter?
Yes, the 80g wadding and quilted lining provide excellent warmth for most winter conditions when paired with layers.
Will the wax rub off on my car seats or furniture?
While the jacket is generally stable, it is best to avoid direct prolonged contact with light-colored upholstery, especially if the jacket is new or has been freshly re-waxed.
How often should I re-wax the jacket?
It depends on frequency of use; typically, a light re-wax once a year is sufficient to maintain water repellency.
Troubleshooting
The jacket is losing its water repellency
Apply a fresh layer of Barbour wax dressing to the outer fabric to restore the barrier.
There is white residue on the fabric
This is often excess wax; warm the jacket slightly in a heated room and buff the area with a soft cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this is a waxed cotton garment, proper care is essential. Do not put the jacket in a washing machine or dry clean it, as this will strip the wax treatment and damage the fabric. To clean, use a damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. If the jacket begins to dry out or loses its water-repellency, apply a high-quality wax dressing to the outer shell. Store the jacket in a cool, dry place on a sturdy wooden hanger to help maintain its shape, and avoid storing it in confined spaces while damp.
