The Barbour Bristol Wax Jacket in Classic Navy combines dependable weather protection with a smart, versatile colour that works effortlessly in town or country. Crafted from robust 6oz Sylkoil waxed cotton, it has a comfortable, lived-in finish while helping protect against wind and showers.
Its tailored fit and raglan sleeves provide a refined silhouette without restricting everyday movement. Barbour’s signature tartan lining, corduroy collar and traditional waxed finish reinforce its unmistakable British country character.
A robust two-way zip, studded storm fly and fastening throat strap provide additional coverage in changeable conditions. Two moleskin-lined handwarmer pockets and two spacious bellows pockets complete this practical jacket, providing warmth and convenient storage without adding unnecessary bulk.
The 6oz Sylkoil outer provides dependable resistance against showers and wind while developing the comfortable, characterful finish associated with traditional Barbour wax jackets.
The tailored shape gives the Bristol a smarter and more contemporary appearance than a relaxed-fit country jacket. Raglan sleeves support easy movement, while the cut still allows room for seasonal layering.
Two waist-height handwarmer pockets feature soft moleskin linings for additional comfort in colder weather. Two generous bellows pockets provide convenient storage for everyday essentials without compromising the jacket’s clean silhouette.
The deep Classic Navy colour offers a refined alternative to traditional olive wax jackets. It pairs easily with denim, chinos, country shirts and knitwear, making the Bristol equally suitable for rural weekends, commuting and everyday town wear.
A two-way zip, studded storm fly and corduroy collar with fastening throat strap provide additional coverage in changeable weather. The collar can be raised and secured when extra protection is needed.
Is the Barbour Bristol Wax Jacket waterproof?
The Bristol is water resistant rather than fully waterproof. Its 6oz Sylkoil waxed-cotton outer helps protect against showers and wind but is not intended to replace a fully waterproof jacket during prolonged heavy rain.
What colour is Classic Navy?
Classic Navy is a deep, versatile navy blue. It provides a smart alternative to traditional olive wax jackets and coordinates easily with denim, chinos, shirts and knitwear.
Does the Bristol Wax Jacket have a tailored fit?
Yes. The Bristol has a tailored fit that creates a smarter, more defined silhouette. If you intend to wear thick layers underneath, consider this when choosing your size.
Is the Bristol suitable for winter?
The robust waxed outer and weather-protective design make it well suited to colder and changeable conditions. It does not have a heavily insulated lining, so knitwear, a fleece or a compatible Barbour liner may be needed in lower temperatures.
How many pockets does it have?
The Bristol has four practical outer pockets: two moleskin-lined handwarmer pockets and two spacious bellows pockets.
Can a liner or hood be added?
The interactive Bristol is compatible with selected Barbour jacket accessories. Check the individual liner or hood details to confirm compatibility before ordering.
What is the Navy Bristol Jacket made from?
The outer is made from 100% cotton with a 6oz Sylkoil waxed finish. The Classic Navy lining is made from 78% cotton and 22% polyester.
What can I wear with the Classic Navy Bristol Jacket?
It works particularly well with jeans, chinos, country shirts, wool knitwear, Chelsea boots and coordinating Barbour accessories.
