FAQs

Is this jacket fully waterproof?

No, the Barbour Audrey Jacket is showerproof, meaning it offers protection against light rain and drizzles. It is not designed to withstand heavy downpours.

How should I clean my jacket?

Always refer to the care label inside your jacket for specific instructions. Generally, it is suitable for machine wash, but follow the recommended temperature and cycle settings to maintain the fabric and finish.

Can I wear this jacket in winter?

This is a lightweight liner jacket, best suited for crisp autumn strolls or mild spring weather. For colder winter conditions, you would need a warmer, insulated coat.

Is the hood removable?

Yes, the hood is detachable, offering versatility in style and protection. You can easily attach or remove it as needed.

What kind of fit does the jacket have?

It features a bomber-inspired silhouette with blouson sleeves and elasticated cuffs, providing a comfortable and relaxed fit. The drawcord hem allows for an adjustable fit around the waist.

What is the primary use for this jacket?

The jacket is ideal for casual outerwear, perfect for everyday wear, city adventures, and light outdoor activities during transitional weather where light rain protection and style are desired.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels too loose around the waist or hem.

Utilize the integrated drawcord hem. Gently pull the drawcord to cinch the hem to your desired fit, then tie or secure it as designed to maintain the adjustment.

The jacket doesn't seem to protect against rain effectively.

Confirm that the detachable hood is securely attached and properly positioned over your head. Remember, this jacket is showerproof, meaning it's designed for light rain and drizzles, not heavy downpours. For heavier rain, a fully waterproof garment would be required.

The fabric appears wrinkled after storage or washing.

Follow the care instructions on the product label for ironing or steaming. Often, a cool iron or gentle steaming can help smooth out wrinkles without damaging the fabric or its finish.

The detachable hood is difficult to attach or remove.

Carefully align the snaps or buttons on the hood with those on the jacket collar. Ensure they are fully engaged when attaching and gently unfasten them one by one when removing to avoid stress on the fabric or fasteners.
