The legendary Barbour wax jacket

The Barbour wax jacket is just one of the products from J Barbour and Sons who for over a hundred years have successfully manufactured outdoor clothing ideal for those that enjoy outdoor activities such as horse riding, shooting and fishing or just relish the great outdoors.

Introduced in 1984, the Barbour wax jacket is the most renowned piece of Barbour outdoor wear and probably one of the best-loved items of country clothing worldwide.

Barbour wax jackets even became a fashion accessory among city types and celebrities during the 1980s, much like Hunter wellies.

The defining features of the Barbour wax jacket

A commitment to excellent quality and durability has evolved through years of dedication from the Barbour work-force.

When it comes to the legendary Barbour wax jacket, a careful blend of supreme materials and manufacturing to Barbour's very own unique specifications of quality and style are paramount.

Genuine long staple Egyptian cotton, solid brass studs, big tooth metal zips and an average of 15,000 stitches per Barbour wax jacket offer sublime durability and strength.

The 100% cotton outer is treated with a special combination of oil and wax to ensure ultimate weatherproofing. To maximise performance the seams of Barbour wax jackets are then double rolled and stitched through two thicknesses of fabric with thread that has also been treated with Barbour's exclusive waterproofing formula.

The Barbour wax jacket range

The Barbour range features classic wax jackets including the Beaufort, Bedale, Border, Bushman, Moorland and Northumbria. Barbour wax jackets are available in heavy or medium weight finishes for men, women and children.

As well as wax jackets, the Barbour collection offers accessories, footwear and knitwear.
