Extended Product Information

FAQs

What material is the outer shell made of?

The outer shell is a polycotton blend, consisting of 65% polyester and 35% cotton.

Is the jacket truly waterproof or just water-resistant?

The jacket features a 100% polyurethane membrane, making it waterproof and breathable, designed for reliable protection against wet weather.

How should I clean the jacket?

You should machine wash the jacket at 30°C using a non-biological detergent. Do not use fabric conditioner or bleach. Tumble dry on low or hang dry.

What does the 'fitted cut' mean?

A fitted cut means the jacket is designed to follow the contours of the body more closely, offering a tailored and streamlined silhouette, rather than a loose or boxy shape.

Can I wear this jacket in warm weather?

While the jacket is breathable, its primary design is for protection against wet and cooler conditions. It may be too warm for very hot weather, but its breathability helps manage comfort during milder, wet days.

What is the internal checked yoke?

The internal checked yoke is a panel of fabric across the upper back, often featuring Barbour's signature tartan or check pattern, adding a classic heritage detail to the inside of the jacket.

Where is the Barbour branding located?

The Barbour branding is subtly applied through embroidery on the front left pocket flap.

Troubleshooting

Jacket no longer feels waterproof

Ensure the jacket has been washed correctly according to care instructions. Over time, the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may need reapplication. Consider using a technical wash and reproofing product designed for waterproof outerwear.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush. Apply a small amount of wax (like beeswax or a zipper lubricant) to the teeth to improve glide.

Fit is too snug or too loose

Consult the size chart provided by Barbour for accurate measurements. The jacket has a fitted cut; if you prefer a looser fit, consider ordering one size up. Ensure the jacket is not overly constrained by wearing minimal layers underneath when trying it on.
