FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
The jacket's protective high collar and sturdy zip closure help shield against light elements like wind and brief drizzles. However, it is not described as fully waterproof and is best suited for transitional weather rather than heavy rain.
What season is this jacket best for?
This quilted jacket is ideal for transitional seasons like spring and autumn, and cooler summer evenings. Its warmth without bulk makes it excellent for layering.
How should I choose the right size?
Refer to the brand's specific sizing chart if available. Consider your usual dress size, and if you plan to wear thick layers underneath, you might consider sizing up for comfort.
Can I remove the belt?
The adjustable belt is designed to enhance the jacket's silhouette and is an integral part of its aesthetic. While it can be unthreaded, it is intended to be worn with the jacket for its characteristic style and functionality.
What is the material of the jacket?
The jacket is primarily made from fleece, providing warmth and comfort without excessive bulk. For specific details on the material blend, please consult the care label inside the garment.
Does the hardware require special cleaning?
The premium brass-finish hardware typically only requires a gentle wipe with a damp cloth to keep it clean. Avoid abrasive cleaners or polishes that could damage the finish.
Is this suitable for motorcycling?
While the jacket pays homage to Barbour's motorcycling roots and features a protective high collar, it is primarily a fashion item designed for everyday wear. It does not offer the same level of protective gear as specialized motorcycle safety apparel.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or stuck
Gently rub a graphite pencil or a small amount of zipper lubricant along the zipper teeth to help it glide more smoothly. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.
Quilting appears flattened in areas
This can happen with wear. After washing and drying, gently pat and fluff the quilted sections to help redistribute the filling. Avoid heavy compression during storage.
Belt slips or doesn't stay cinched
Ensure the belt is correctly threaded through all loops and the buckle is securely fastened. For optimal grip, ensure the belt is not excessively loose or tight, finding a comfortable tension.

Care:
To maintain the quality and longevity of your quilted jacket, follow these general care guidelines:
- Washing: Check the inner care label for specific instructions. Generally, machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach.
- Drying: Do not tumble dry, as this can damage the quilting and fleece material. Lay flat or hang to air dry away from direct sunlight or heat.

- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place on a padded hanger to help maintain its shape.
