Setup, Compatibility & Care
As a waxed cotton garment, the Barbour Kevlar Wax Jacket requires specific care to maintain its functionality.
- Cleaning: Never use soap or detergents. Clean the exterior only with a sponge and cold water.
- Storage: Hang the jacket in a well-ventilated area. Avoid storing it in plastic garment bags, as this can trap moisture and promote mildew.
- Maintenance: To keep the fabric water-repellent, re-apply a professional-grade wax dressing annually or when you notice water no longer beads on the surface.
- Compatibility: The jacket layers well over light knitwear or flannel shirts, though the sherpa lining is significant enough that heavy, bulky sweaters may feel restrictive.
