Product Information

Full details

The Barbour Vennel Overshirt is designed for adult males seeking a versatile transitional layer with a premium feel. Its key benefit is the blend of signature Barbour checks with a textured crepe cotton fabric, offering both style and practicality. A potential consideration is its relaxed fit, which is intended for layering and may feel looser than a traditional shirt.

FAQs

What is the best way to care for the Vennel Overshirt?

Machine wash at 30°C with similar colours. Avoid bleach and harsh detergents. It is best to line dry or tumble dry on a low setting to maintain the fabric's texture.

Is this shirt suitable for cold weather?

The Vennel Overshirt is designed as a transitional layer, best suited for mild to cool weather. For colder temperatures, it can be layered over warmer garments like sweaters.

What does 'overshirt fit' mean?

An overshirt fit is designed to be worn over other clothing, so it typically has a more relaxed and looser cut than a standard shirt to allow for comfortable layering.

How do I determine my correct size?

Refer to the garment's specific measurements if available, or consider your usual size in regular-fit shirts. Since it's designed for layering, if you plan to wear thick items underneath, you might consider sizing up.

Can I wear this for formal occasions?

The Vennel Overshirt is primarily a casual to smart-casual garment due to its checked pattern and relaxed fit. It is not suitable for formal events.

What is the texture of the fabric?

The fabric is 100% cotton crepe, which gives it a subtly textured, slightly crinkled appearance rather than a smooth finish.

Troubleshooting

Shirt appears too large or bulky

Ensure you are wearing it as intended for layering. The 'overshirt fit' is designed to be looser. If it's still not to your preference, consider layering with a slimmer base layer.

Color fading after washing

Always wash with similar colors as recommended. Use a mild detergent and ensure your washing machine's water temperature is set to 30°C. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying.

Fabric texture has changed

Harsh washing or drying methods can affect the crepe texture. Stick to the recommended machine wash at 30°C and line dry or tumble dry on low if necessary. Avoid ironing on high heat.
