FAQs

Can I wash this jacket in the washing machine?

No, you must never machine wash a waxed jacket, as it will strip the wax coating and damage the fabric.

How often should I re-wax my jacket?

It depends on how often you wear it. Once a year is generally recommended for average use, or when you notice water no longer beads off the surface.

Is this jacket waterproof?

The waxed cotton is highly water-resistant, making it perfect for light to moderate rain, though it is not classified as fully waterproof like a seam-sealed technical garment.

What should I wear underneath the jacket?

The relaxed fit is designed to accommodate sweaters or light layers, making it a great layering piece for autumn and spring.

How do I store the jacket during summer?

Hang it in a cool, dry place with good airflow. Avoid plastic bags, which can trap moisture and cause mildew.

Troubleshooting

The jacket is losing its water repellency

The wax coating wears down with use and weather; apply an official Barbour wax dressing to restore the protective finish.

Dirt or mud is stuck to the surface

Allow the mud to dry, then gently brush it off with a soft sponge and cold water.

The fabric feels dry or brittle

This is a sign the jacket needs re-waxing to rejuvenate the cotton fibers and restore weather resistance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Barbour Arlene Wax Jacket lasts for years, proper care is essential. Do not machine wash, tumble dry, or iron the garment, as these actions will damage the wax finish. Clean the jacket by sponging down the outer fabric with cold water only. If the jacket begins to lose its water-repellent quality, you should apply a re-waxing dressing to restore the finish. For storage, hang the jacket in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources. When layering, the relaxed fit is compatible with light-to-medium weight knits and base layers, ensuring you stay warm without feeling constricted.
