FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof or water-resistant?
The jacket is designed to be water-resistant due to its waxing, offering protection against light rain and showers. It is not fully waterproof for prolonged heavy downpours.
How do I know if I need to re-wax my jacket?
You should re-wax your jacket when water no longer beads on the surface and starts to soak into the fabric.
Can I machine wash this jacket?
No, machine washing or tumble drying will damage the wax coating and the fabric. Sponge cleaning is recommended.
What is the best way to store the jacket?
Store the jacket hanging in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place. Avoid storing it in plastic as the waxed cotton needs to breathe.
What other sizes are available?
This particular model is available in size S. Other sizes, such as XL, are available for the Barbour Tracker Waterproof Jacket in blue.
Is this jacket warm enough for winter?
This is a light jacket designed for mild weather. For colder temperatures, layering or a heavier jacket would be more appropriate.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels stiff after storage.
This is normal for waxed jackets. Gently flex the fabric or allow it to warm up to body temperature to soften.
Water beading is reduced.
The jacket requires re-waxing. Follow the specific re-waxing instructions for Barbour products.
Wax transfer to other clothing.
Allow the jacket to dry completely in a well-ventilated area after re-waxing. Avoid prolonged contact with lighter-colored fabrics, especially when new or freshly waxed.
Minor scuffs or marks.
For minor marks, try wiping gently with a damp cloth. For more significant marks, a specialized wax jacket cleaner might be necessary.
