About Barbour Men's Jackets

Barbour men’s jackets: guide to fit and function

Every Barbour men’s jacket is designed with a specific use in mind. Waxed cotton styles like the Beaufort offer a looser fit for layering and field use, while the Ashby provides a more tailored silhouette for town. Quilted designs are lightweight, making them easy to pack and wear in changeable weather. Waterproof shells feature technical membranes and sealed seams for sustained wet conditions.

When choosing a jacket, consider:

  • Fit: Classic, tailored, or relaxed cuts depending on activity.
  • Climate: Waxed for showers, quilted for mild cold, waterproof for heavy rain.
  • Longevity: Jackets can be re-waxed and repaired, often lasting decades.

Our range includes both heritage icons and modern interpretations, helping you find the right balance of practicality and style.

Barbour Mens Jackets FAQs

Barbour’s classic waxed cotton jackets are water-resistant and perform well in light to moderate rain, especially if re-waxed regularly. For full waterproof protection in heavy rain, Barbour produces specialised designs such as the Winter Beaufort Parka and Trover Waterproof Jacket.

The right choice depends on use. The Beaufort is ideal for country wear with generous storage, the Bedale is a versatile everyday wax jacket, and the Ashby offers a slimmer fit for urban settings. Quilted jackets suit transitional months, while waterproof shells are best for persistent rain.

Clean with a damp sponge and cold water, avoiding detergents. Re-wax every year or two with Barbour Thornproof Wax Dressing to maintain water resistance and extend the jacket’s life. For damage, Barbour offers repair services including zip and lining replacement.

Many of Barbour’s waxed cotton jackets are still produced in South Shields, England, where the brand was founded in 1894. Some quilted and technical jackets are made in other global facilities under strict quality control.

With care and periodic re-waxing, a Barbour jacket can last for decades. Many customers wear the same jacket for 10–20 years, with repairs and rewaxing helping preserve both performance and appearance.

Yes. Barbour men’s jackets are considered a long-term investment due to their durability, repairability, and heritage style. They provide both functional weather protection and a classic look that doesn’t date.
