I really appreciate these videos, Antonio. I'm a young man (22 years) who's starting to slowly (but surely!) transition my wardrobe from that "high school/college" style into "adulthood". Your videos/e-book are great for me!

Was looking into these jackets. I see guys wearing sweaters underneath these. Do these have good mobility? I hate my jackets getting bunched up when moving around.

This was a thorough and helpful video. Thanks for answering all my questions about the maintenance, insulation, and history of the waxed cotton jacket.

I'm up to my second Barbour Beaufort- bought the first one from Orvis over a decade ago. While shoveling snow one day it ripped, so I sent it back to Orvis, and they gave me my current brand new one. Both were made in England. Unfortunately, today, I'm noticing some Beauforts being manufactured in "Europe, " which is code for Eastern Europe, where labor is much cheaper.

A good addition would be the fact that these are great to buy vintage and second hand. I have three Barbours in my closet right now, two second hand, both of which are well over 35 years old. With an annual wax, they look no more than maybe a few years old. As long as there's no rips in the cotton shell, all it needs is a fresh waxing and you've got a brand new jacket. I'm early 20s. Those jackets are nearly twice my age lol

Antonio thanks for the Eddie Bauer advertisement but the fact is Barbour is the best wax jacket money can buy.

Thanks Chaz - I think we only hit -25 this year:)

Depends on the fabric - but most likely yes.

The point about maintenance is an interesting one. In order to keep a good looking wardrobe, it's necessary to spend some time keeping your garments in a good state of repair - leather shoes being another obvious example - or you're just going to end up buying the same clothes year after year!

Thanks, I own a Barbour and was wondering about the proper upkeep.
Very helpful.

you can find Barbour through Orvis, an excellent company !

I actually picked up a black barbour international jacket the other day. Cost an arm and a leg but they're supposed to last a life time with proper re waxing. It does collect dust and fibres quite badly though, impossible to get rid of them all. barbourbymail would be a good route to getting one.

that and for melting waterproofing into my winter work boots is the only reason I own one.

Thanks Bruce - have Alfred clean it for you!

[TXCrafts]

dose the wax treatment also work for waxed leather also?

[carloschowell]

Thanks for this useful video. Would you recommend brands that would fit a college student budget? Thanks again!

Anyone interesting in trying on a Barbour jacket in store and do not have a Barbour brick and mortar should check out Orvis. They have stores all across the U.S.

Hey Antonio, it would be intresting if we can see you in half so we can see the whole jacket !

[SlashFredo]

Thanks. Great info. A suggestion would be better, more dynamic camera work to capture you at different angles and distances. It was really frustrating that you had a tight, fixed view while describing the jacket and pockets. The cutaways were useful but didn’t represent you, in the jacket.
