Barbour has announced the launch of its Lightweight Wax Collection, a range of lightweight 4oz waxed cotton garments designed especially for spring and early autumn with all the benefits and protection expected from a traditional waxed cotton garment.

Created with a new special blend of waxes and oils, Barbour’s Lightweight 4oz waxed garments provide a high level of protection from wind and rain yet weigh around 30% less than Barbour’s traditional waxed cotton garments. The garments are made from American medium staple and pima cotton fibre spun into a very high-quality yarn to create a strong, pristine cotton fabric that is both lightweight and robust. Dyed and finished in Scotland by Halley Stevensons, one of the leading wax suppliers, the garments come with cotton linings, lightweight corduroy collars, zips and other trims to further reduce the weight.

The Barbour Lightweight Wax Collection is now available from barbour.com.
