FAQs

What is the primary purpose of an overshirt?

An overshirt is designed to be a versatile layering piece that sits between a base layer (like a t-shirt or shirt) and outerwear (like a jacket or coat). It provides adaptable coverage and an extra touch of warmth.

How should I size the Barbour Overshirt?

The overshirt is designed for layered wear. Consider your typical layering habits when choosing a size. If you plan to wear it over thicker items, you might consider sizing up. Refer to the brand's specific size guide for detailed measurements.

Can I wear this as my main jacket?

Yes, the Barbour Overshirt can function as a light jacket in milder weather due to its structured build and wool material. For colder temperatures, it is best worn as part of a layering system.

Is the wool material warm?

Yes, wool is a natural insulator and provides good warmth, making this overshirt suitable for cooler conditions when layered appropriately.

What kind of occasions is this overshirt suitable for?

The Barbour Overshirt is ideal for casual and semi-casual occasions. Its structured design keeps it looking neat for everyday wear, such as running errands, meeting friends, or relaxed social gatherings.

How do I care for the wool material?

It's best to hand wash or use a wool cycle with cold water and a mild detergent. Air dry flat and avoid tumble drying or exposing it to high heat.

Troubleshooting

Overshirt appears to have lost its shape

Ensure the garment was laid flat to dry after washing. If shape is still an issue, a light steam may help restore it. Avoid wringing or stretching the garment when wet.

Wool feels itchy or rough

This can sometimes occur with wool. Wearing a thin base layer underneath, like a t-shirt, can prevent direct skin contact. The feel of wool often improves with wear.

Fading color after washing

Always wash wool garments in cold water and use a detergent suitable for dark or wool colors. Turn the garment inside out before washing and avoid direct sunlight during drying.
