Barbour Ladies Winter Force Waxed Parka

Stay warm with the Winter Force Parka!

The ladies Winter Force Waxed Parka from Barbour oozes traditional British style. Part of their exclusive Heritage Collection, which finds the modernity in tradition, this jacket is designed to flatter the female form whilst remaining unapologetically functional. Large pockets, a scooped fishtail hem and a Union Jack badge on the arm give this jacket that authentic traditional British look which is exactly what this season is all about!

With a thermal fleece lining to keep you warm even on the coldest of mornings, a hood that you can hideaway in, and a draw waist to accommodate winter layers the Winter Force parka will see you through the winter months warm and dry.

A firm favourite with us at Barbour By Mail, its chic, practical and is designed to last for years to come. We think this style definitely lends itself to that old rugged look…but if you’re not keen on that don’t forget about the re-waxing service from Barbour for a small cost or you can have a go yourself with a tin of Thornproof dressing.

Look after your Barbour…

Barbour pride themselves on the quality of their products, with the view for them to be durable and long lasting. This is why they have made it very easy for you to care for your Barbour Jackets. Barbour offer a repair service, so if the zip needs replacing or a pocket needs stitching back on, then Barbour will happily repair it at little cost.

Barbour recommends that you have your waxed jacket re-waxed at least once a year, believing this is the secret to making a jacket last a lifetime. You can either send it to Barbour, and have it re-waxed by the professionals, or alternatively you can purchase a tin of Thornproof Wax Dressing and re-wax your jacket yourself. It is very straight forward, if you require the instructions you can find them online, and you will only need one tin, two if the garment is in a tired condition.

The Thornproof Wax Dressing is made from the same formula used to make waxed jackets and it can be used on all waxed items such as Barbour Bags and Barbour Hats.

You can buy Thornproof Wax Dressing along with a huge range of other Barbour products from Barbour By Mail. Visit our store or shop online.
