Product Information
Full details
The Lyle and Scott Waxed Guard Parka is designed for adult men who value a balance between rugged utility and refined aesthetic. It offers superior protection against light elements thanks to its water-resistant wax finish and adjustable features, making it an ideal choice for transitional weather. While the relaxed fit is perfect for layering, potential buyers should note that the wax coating requires specific care to maintain its longevity and protective properties over time.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for extreme winter conditions?
It is best suited for autumn and mild winter weather. In extreme cold, you should layer with thermal undergarments.
Does the parka come in different materials?
Yes, variations of this model are available in both cotton and nylon compositions depending on the specific model code.
Can I iron this parka?
Ironing is generally discouraged as it can melt or damage the wax finish. If wrinkles occur, hanging the garment in a steamy bathroom often helps.
What does 'relaxed fit' mean for sizing?
It means the garment is cut with extra room. If you prefer a tighter or more tailored look, you may want to consider sizing down.
How do I identify the authentic Lyle and Scott logo?
The iconic eagle logo is embroidered clearly on the chest of every genuine Waxed Guard Parka.
Troubleshooting
The fabric feels stiff or waxy
This is a characteristic of the waxed finish; it will soften naturally with wear and body heat.
Water no longer beads on the surface
The wax coating may need to be reapplied. Purchase a dedicated fabric wax treatment and follow the application instructions on the product label.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your parka remains in peak condition, avoid machine washing or dry cleaning, as these processes strip away the protective wax coating. Instead, spot clean the jacket with a damp cloth and cold water. If the parka becomes very soiled, use specialized wax-garment cleaners. Always hang your jacket in a well-ventilated area to dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the wax to crack or discolor. When storing, choose a wooden or padded hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulders.
