The Barbour Highclere Wax Jacket in Olive is a refined twist on country tradition, designed with a flattering feminine silhouette and all the practical charm you’d expect from Britain’s most storied outerwear brand. Cut from weather-resistant Sylkoil waxed cotton and lined with a luxuriously soft tartan, it’s the kind of jacket that feels just as at home on the high street as it does in the hills.
Signature details like a storm flap, handwarmer pockets, and cord-lined collar offer comfort and function in spades, while the shaping at the waist adds elegance to every step. It’s understated, yes — but unmistakably Barbour.

Styling Tip: The Highclere elevates even the simplest outfit. Pair with slim denim, a chunky knit, and Chelsea boots for an easy, countryside-ready look. For town days, layer over a wool midi dress and heeled ankle boots — it brings instant polish to rainy-day dressing.
Sizing Note: This tailored piece is shaped for a flattering fit, so if you like to wear thick jumpers beneath your jackets, consider sizing up. Otherwise, go true to size for a sleek silhouette that still allows for movement.
Care Advice: Re-wax once a year to keep the cotton waterproof and supple — it’s worth the ritual. Store hanging, away from radiators or damp corners, and sponge off any surface dirt with cool water. This jacket will age gracefully, becoming your go-to for years to come.
