Thanks, Robert. My wife and I reproofed my Barbour Beaufort jacket this morning here in Boston (USA) . We were a bit apprehensive but thanks in great part to your tutelage it was a great success. We are at the point now where it's hanging in our back hall to dry overnight. Looks like a moderately warm day today so by tomorrow we should be done. Visiting London in October for first time since the pandemic. I will likely wear it then. Thanks again.
When I re wax my Barbour motorcycle jacket and trousers I generally put the wax on heat it with the (wife's) hair dryer shh and hang them in a warm place overnight, THEN I warm them again to remove excess wax after it has had all night to soak in, just a slightly different approach to reach the same end.
Top video 👍🏻 I am at the point of having to re-wax my Barbour for the first time and of the videos I have watched on the subject yours is the easiest to follow and by far the best.
Thanks for the video of your trip of picking up the wax and showing how to wax Barbour jacket! I am now falling love with Barbour jacket and might buy a jacket when I visit South Korea in April from China.
To buck the trend of people walking around London in country clothing I've taken to always bussing a pair of low ridin' Batties whenever I go hill walking in the Yorkshire Dales.
That's very useful. I was just gonna wax mine without finishing off the job with a hairdryer, but now I've seen your vid I'll wait until I've gotten hold of a hairdryer from somebody.
Have just purchased a mint condition Barbour Gamefair (Falklands green ) originally purchased in Edinburgh in 1984 and is by far my favourite Barbour garment and will be re waxing on Friday ,thanks for the video 🇬🇧
Or you can make your own bars of wax. 40% Parrafin 40% Beeswax 20% mineral oil. Melt in a double boiler or in a metal bowl over boiling water and pour into soap molds. I rub on in sections and use hair dryer on Med heat on high setting. Let hang for day or two for soft beautiful finish For a tougher wax finish use 90% beeswax and 10% parrafin.
Rewax yourself....it's easy .. satisfying and cheap .you can put it on thick for a vintage look or thin.depending how you like it ... top bonus being..you keep the sponge you were taking off with along with the 1 you applied with.. when it starts to lose that sheen...polish with the sponge. It's amazing the SHINE you can get on pocket flaps .stormflaps .prestud strip..to keep the jacket looking more"built up"n shiny for 6mth? Like a new wax...top tip .thank me later...keep building that shine up.
I scrubbed a new 1 for 8 hrs to "peach fuzz"the canvas .layed the wax on thick and polished.....it looks like it's been up and down dale ...in a good way...
The heat gun works just as well as the hairdryer. Despite having three Barbour jackets, I love my new Canna, which may need a touch of freshening up already. 😊😊
London sights and the winding way to the wax is great! I have a leather Barbour Bushman for 20+ years and not a rip or stain anywhere despite years of use. Great leather patina too. A waxed cotton Bushman too. Can't beat a Barbour for quality, patina and longevity.
Mate make your own it's so easy and way way cheaper than the 10 quid plus they charge for a tiny tin . You can buy 2kg of beeswax online for around 20 pound , all you need is take say 100grams of grated beeswax and equal amounts of olive oil . Melt beeswax in a bain marie and slowly add olive oil when it's all melted. You now have a large tin amounts worth for next to nothing. I use that to waterproof a load of gear it works just as well . Also to get a better finish after its dried a little on the coat , use a soft bristled shoe brush in circular motions and straight where there's stitching to just get a little of the excess off the top that leaves that visible layer.
Great video. I just bought a Barbour wax jacket, now I know how to re-wax it once it's needed. I'm certeainly gonna visit The Monument and Leadenhall Market next time I'm in London. Thanks!
Very useful, thank you! I do echo the sentiments of most of the other contributers though. I hope the London Tourism Board paid you well. 😁 Sorry. Just jumping on the ol' bandwagon. I enjoyed it, so thank you. 🤘
Just bought a barbour duke online. It fits on the shoulders and arms but the waist feels to big. Should I size down or just get the waist taken in an inch or so? I've heard Renapur is good for wax jackets.
Always enjoy your videos. Once the Elizabeth Line is open next year do you plan on showing some of it (stations, interior & exterior & the line itself)?
I love my Barbour Jacket because when its pissing down with a wind in my direction and i'm out walking the dogs over Ventnor Downs on the Isle of wight it keeps me dry plus if you look after a Barbour wax jacket it will last for ages . love the fact its tough , good pockets and when it wet i can hang it up in a dry room and it will dry off in a couple of hours. Rob your Video was informative on how to do a re wax but surely Questions have to be asked why you wear one ? looking at what people and the cloths they were wearing, suits, Tshirts ect Please tell me you Didn't go on the Underground looking like an extra from Emmerdale ? No please ! Talking As a 55 year old guy who has a few more miles on the clock then you do. Like why would you wear one in London ? you dont get wet in London as there are shelters of Description Everywhere ! having lived in for Walthamstow- Chingford, Barking and Chingford for 40 years and if i still did i would pick up a North Face, Super dry jacket or something similar Barbour Jackets look Shit ....and im no dedicated follower of fashion maybe i'm out outta touch . Great video by the way im off to review a Brief case whilst on the beach . alot said tongue in cheak brov ...no offence !
Hey Robert thank you for this video it is very informative for waxing a Barbour jacket. I wanna ask something about color of the Barbour Jackets, in this video your jacket looks not shiny, matte color which very good looking for me but on barbour web site or other web images this jakets (Bedale,Beaufort,Ashby) looking very shiny,waxed,it's like kind a wet or oily, I don like this kind of seems, are there any different models for matte or shiny we can choose. Secondly discolorization of some part of waxed jacket can fixed with waxing. Thank for your answers, and sorry for poor Engilish.
Can I wax my jacket again after I put it in the washing machine 😭 the Barbour page says not but I want to know if someone tried and worked? I ruined my jacket :(
@@MindbodyMedic I just ordered wax and so this was useful info. I hope this will fix the damp inside feeling I get when wearing. I fear you may be right tho as my wax was lost years ago
You timelapsed and didn't talk the part you shouldn't have, and talked and didn't timelapse the first 8 mins you should have timelapsed and not talked.
Because they don't stop virus, holes are too big vs. viruses, and you rebreathe your exhaled bacteria , and it the moisture that gathers on them holds 'gunk', allergens, bacteria.Look at one under a microscope after wearing it over and over. It is just a 'rabbits foot'...only stops you from spilling big drops on others and it breaks them up into smaller gunk and then it still goes through.Stop trusting media and do your own research.
15:16 "I was hoping to do this in daylight..." well my man, you spent the entire day walking about London, of course the sun went down! By the by, you could have done it in daylight. If past experience is any guide, the sun eventually returns.

I myself have a Barbour Gamefair it’s 32 years old and still wear it nearly every day ( best coat I’ve ever owned ) 👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧 quality.

Bloody hell, on with it mate.

Top video 👍🏻 I am at the point of having to re-wax my Barbour for the first time and of the videos I have watched on the subject yours is the easiest to follow and by far the best.
Barbour will lay the jacket on a heated bench to apply wax. I put mine in and out of oven during waxing folded on a baking tray 😀 works a treat 👍
Thanks for the video of your trip of picking up the wax and showing how to wax Barbour jacket! I am now falling love with Barbour jacket and might buy a jacket when I visit South Korea in April from China.
The jacket looked amazing afterwards. It’s wild how it looked completely different after applying the wax.
Thanks for watching! Glad you liked the video
I’m American married to an Englishman and just ordered my very 1st Barbour jacket. Glad I found this video.
You should be ashamed as an American. Buy filson.
I've never been on a shopping trip watching a youtube video, ha ha, nice touch. Great Info, I'm going to have a go, cheers.

A Barbour with a built up shine can look like good vintage one....firstwax you can make it look decades old..
I scrubbed a new 1 for 8 hrs to "peach fuzz"the canvas .layed the wax on thick and polished.....it looks like it's been up and down dale ...in a good way...
9 minutes until we get to waxing
Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed the video

Can't beat a Barbour for quality, patina and longevity.
Mental note. If I do the pilgrimage to the store. Get more than one tin
Well done mate I not only learnt something but enjoy the journey as well thank you kind regards Phil from Australia 🇦🇺
was hoping for some tips on waxing a Barbour jacket not a guided tour of Monument in London and a trip on the tube!
Mate make your own it's so easy and way way cheaper than the 10 quid plus they charge for a tiny tin .

I own the exact Bedale in a 36c
Sage i waxed it today and it looks fresh and back to life thsnks for your video mate . 🙂
at 6.02 the restaurant manager blows dust off of a plate ! LOL !!
Thank you Roberts.
Just waxed mine!
Video starts at approx 8mins in if you don’t want the tour of London ha ha

Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed the video
Great video. I just bought a Barbour wax jacket, now I know how to re-wax it once it's needed. I'm certeainly gonna visit The Monument and Leadenhall Market next time I'm in London. Thanks!
Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed the video

Thanks for watching! Glad you liked the video
Hallo,schönes und interessantes video,meine Barbour jacke ist schon über 40Jahre alt,und ich liebe sie!!!Gruss aus Deutschland 😀👍
Awesome video, made me wanna travel there
Very useful, thank you! I do echo the sentiments of most of the other contributers though. I hope the London Tourism Board paid you well. 😁 Sorry. Just jumping on the ol' bandwagon. I enjoyed it, so thank you. 🤘
I really like my Barbour Jacket, just be careful around fires, or you’ll look like the 5th of November.
They're less flammable than nearly all types of jacket.
Looks great and excellent video. Which Barbour model and color?
Very cool video, love that you know the history behind the places you show. Could this wax be used on any jacket?
Great video. Rewaxing my Drizabone jacket and came across this seems like its like for like
Part of the experience of owning a Barbour is the waxy smell.
I rather enjoyed the tour and the Tube-made me a tad homesick for London. Useful information.
why would you wear a hunting/farmer jacket in city?
GoodJob， very helpful. thanks.
Great vid mate.
9:16 to bypass the yap
I have one hanging on the door that needs rewaxing. Good job!
Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed the video
Lmao I’m not going on a pilgrimage to the Barbour store in London to get some wax 😂
Did you do the inside of the zipper seam and the pocket gussets?
Tory Snobcoat
Yah!
Why has my Barbour discoloured after I had been out in the heavy rain and then hung it up in my flat to dry?
It lasted 10 years before the first waxing? That's great.
Thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed the video
waxing a jacket just seems so natural.
Would of been a much better vid had he went to normal speed just 2 show u different steps. Iv just done a rewax n its not easy i may need to redo it
Just bought a barbour duke online. It fits on the shoulders and arms but the waist feels to big. Should I size down or just get the waist taken in an inch or so? I've heard Renapur is good for wax jackets.
Total different situation today in 2021,wonder how many businesses actually survived? Wish theses days were still here ,so so sad 😶
What jacket is tht ur wearing
I would like to give mine a wash before actually applying the wax, is that advisable?
Alan H no, only sponge wash it with water, no detergents or anything like that.
Is the wax scented?
Havent seen a Roberts video in about a year, whats happened man you look half the man! good vid as always
Thanks for watching! Glad you liked the video
Robert you need to turn off the auto reply. it's getting annoying..
What a gorgeous and confident face does He have to share the videos with us , phenomenal you great
Nice video
Great Job!
Dose Barbour wax smell different from other brands
To skip the tour of London, go to 8.00 😉
When you said barbour shop I thought you said "barber shop", I thought you were getting a haircut LOL
Thanks for watching! Glad you liked the video
Is that little can going to be able to finish the jacket properly? I was told I needed 2 to 3 cans for a proper rewax
Only one
It looks good after waxing 👍🏼
nice, I try in next week to clean my bucket hat with this wax! Thansk good stuff!
Always enjoy your videos. Once the Elizabeth Line is open next year do you plan on showing some of it (stations, interior & exterior & the line itself)?
Thanks for watching! Glad you liked the video
WOW, betrifft Wachs.
How often do you have wax your coat?
Thanks for watching! Glad you liked the video
Useful infos. what's your Barbour jacket's name ?
Amazing video, thank you o much for posting! Cheers bro.
O inherited a vintage Barbour and have no idea how much wax to apply. My first attempt, which I smoothed with a heat gun, ended up patchy
I love my Barbour Jacket because when its pissing down with a wind in my direction and i'm out walking the dogs over Ventnor Downs on the Isle of wight it keeps me dry plus if you look after a Barbour wax jacket it will last for ages . love the fact its tough , good pockets and when it wet i can hang it up in a dry room and it will dry off in a couple of hours.

can never figure out how this doesn't wreck the lining
God Is In The Details you don’t wax the inside haha
@@BraddersMusic Yeah I gathered that haha but I mean when you're doing the job does it not seep through or a case of being careful?
@@MindbodyMedic I just ordered wax and so this was useful info. I hope this will fix the damp inside feeling I get when wearing. I fear you may be right tho as my wax was lost years ago

I Love the City of London. Barbour is only one brand.
12 minutes of bullshit before you get down to business...
I gave up after 4 minutes...
Jesus, more yap than a Yorkshire terrier
I think it is more about showing off the zip for this fella.
You seem keen to promote the financial services. I feel very poor watching this. But I love my Barbour, which I bought 25 years ago.
You timelapsed and didn't talk the part you shouldn't have, and talked and didn't timelapse the first 8 mins you should have timelapsed and not talked.
Why is nobody wearing a mask ?
Because they don't stop virus, holes are too big vs. viruses, and you rebreathe your exhaled bacteria , and it the moisture that gathers on them holds 'gunk', allergens, bacteria.Look at one under a microscope after wearing it over and over. It is just a 'rabbits foot'...only stops you from spilling big drops on others and it breaks them up into smaller gunk and then it still goes through.Stop trusting media and do your own research.
….for what?
Going to watch a different how to clean vid - too long getting to the point
