    Barbour wax jackets

    Hi, Just found this old article regarding the different types of Barbour that used to be available. http://thornproof.blogspot.com/2011/02/all-about-wax.html Have been wondering the different between Sylkoil and others. Hope this is of interest.

    Shrinkage?

    Hi, Been viewing many threads discussing the benefits/pitfalls of washing and drying leather, particularly other than cold/room temperature. Saw this item for sale, at a very reasonable price I think, but is this jacket a victim of shrinkage...
