FAQs

Can I put this jacket in the washing machine?

No. Machine washing will permanently strip the protective wax finish and damage the garment.

How often should I re-wax the jacket?

This depends on frequency of use. Generally, once a year or whenever you notice water no longer beads on the surface.

Is this jacket warm enough for winter?

It provides excellent wind protection but is not heavily insulated. It is best suited for layering over sweaters or fleeces during colder weather.

How do I remove light stains?

Use cold water and a soft sponge to gently clean the affected area. Avoid detergents or soaps.

What is the fit of the XL size?

The XL size is designed for a standard adult fit, providing enough room for comfortable layering underneath.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels dry or is absorbing water instead of beading it

The wax coating has worn thin. Apply a fresh layer of Barbour wax dressing to the fabric.

Zip is sticking or difficult to pull

Clean any debris from the zip track and consider using a light application of beeswax or a specialized zipper lubricant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

As this jacket uses traditional waxed cotton, it is essential to follow proper care protocols. Do not dry clean or machine wash the garment, as this will strip away the wax coating. To clean, use a cold water sponge wipe for light dirt. If the jacket loses its water-beading capability, apply a branded Barbour wax dressing using a sponge while the jacket is warm to ensure an even coating. Store the jacket in a cool, well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources to prevent the wax from drying out.
