FAQs
Can I wash my Barbour Wax Mac in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing will remove the wax coating and ruin the jacket's finish. Only use cold water and a sponge for cleaning.
How often should I re-wax my jacket?
Depending on usage, most owners find that re-waxing once a year is sufficient to keep the jacket water-resistant and in good condition.
Is this jacket waterproof?
It is water-resistant. It is designed to withstand light to moderate rain, but it is not intended for heavy, prolonged downpours.
Does the size L fit true to size?
Barbour jackets are typically designed with a traditional, generous cut to accommodate layers. The size L is designed to fit an average adult male comfortably while allowing room for a sweater underneath.
What is the benefit of the corduroy collar?
Beyond its classic aesthetic, the corduroy provides a soft, non-abrasive surface against the neck and adds a touch of traditional country-style detail.
Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak into the fabric instead of beading off.
The wax coating has likely worn down; apply a new layer of Barbour wax dressing to restore water resistance.
Surface dirt or mud stains.
Allow the mud to dry, then gently brush it off; if necessary, use a damp cloth with cold water to spot-clean the affected area.
Jacket feels stiff.
This is normal for new waxed cotton. The material will naturally soften and break in through regular wear and body heat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Barbour Wax Mac, proper maintenance is essential. As this is a waxed cotton garment, it should never be washed in a machine or dry-cleaned, as these processes will strip the protective wax coating. Instead, clean the exterior by sponging it down with cold water. If the jacket begins to lose its water-repellent performance, it should be re-waxed using official Barbour wax dressing. When storing, keep the coat in a cool, well-ventilated space and avoid hanging it in direct, constant contact with other delicate garments, as the wax can transfer. Because it is a long-line coat, ensure you have enough closet space for it to hang freely to prevent wrinkling.
