FAQs

How often should I rewax my Barbour jacket?

Depending on how often you wear it, you should look to rewax your jacket once a year to maintain its weatherproofing capabilities.

Can I put this jacket in the washing machine?

No. Machine washing will permanently remove the wax coating and damage the fabric.

How do I store the jacket?

Hang it on a sturdy hanger in a cool, dry place. Ensure it is not crushed against other garments to maintain the shape.

Is the jacket waterproof?

The jacket is highly water-resistant, making it excellent for rainy weather, though it is not technically classified as fully waterproof like a rubberized raincoat.

What is the best way to clean the inside lining?

If necessary, the lining can be sponge cleaned, but ensure you do not get the exterior waxed cotton wet during the process.

Troubleshooting

The jacket is losing its water-repellent finish

The wax coating has worn off; apply a new layer of Barbour wax dressing to the fabric.

Surface dirt on the jacket

Wipe away dirt or mud with a cold, damp sponge. Do not use soap or detergents.

The jacket feels too stiff

Waxed cotton softens significantly with regular wear. Continue to wear the jacket to allow the fibers to break in.

Pros and Cons

  • Excellent water and wind resistance
  • Highly durable and long-lasting material
  • Timeless design that remains stylish for years

  • Requires professional or DIY rewaxing maintenance
  • Not machine washable

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket does not require a complex setup; it is ready to wear straight out of the package. However, proper care is essential to maintain its performance. Never dry clean or machine wash your waxed jacket, as this will strip the protective wax coating. Instead, clean the exterior using a cold sponge and clean water. If the jacket begins to show signs of dryness or loses its water-repellent properties, apply a fresh coat of Barbour wax dressing. Store the jacket in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, and avoid placing it near direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the wax from melting or transferring.
