The Porton Wax Olive is the jacket I recommend when asked what the best wax jacket is today.
In Navy with raw denim and a grey Shetland sweater, the Porton Wax creates a perfect British maritime-heritage look. In Olive with canvas cargo pants and Danner boots, it establishes a thoroughly cohesive outdoor-workwear aesthetic—two stories, one outfit.
Barbour technical waxed cottonBarbour applies its wax coating technique to the Porton Wax cotton – the same process used on its iconic country jackets since 1894. Waterproof and windproof, it becomes stronger with wax care.
G9 inspired cut with Barbour finishesThe Porton Wax borrows the G9 silhouette—buttoned collar, front zip—while adopting the characteristic finishes of Barbour's waxed cotton. Both legacies are visible in the same construction.
Navy vs. Olive – two camps, one collaborationIn Navy, the Porton Wax is maritime and understated—the naval Barbour meets the Manchester Baracuta. In Olive, it is earthy and natural—the country Barbour meets the outdoor Baracuta.

The Porton Wax Jacket is the waxed version of the Barbour x Baracuta collaboration — the most direct fusion of the two DNAs: Barbour has mastered waxed cotton since 1894, and Baracuta has mastered the G9 cut since 1937. The Porton Wax is the result of this technical and aesthetic encounter in a single garment.
Available in Navy and Olive — two foundational shades in the world of both houses — it offers two entries into the same collaboration. The waxed cotton waterproofs and ages according to Barbour's technique. The cut is inspired by the G9 in its silhouette but adopts the finishes and characteristic details of Barbour's waxed jacket. Baracuta's Fraser tartan lining is visible at the opening — the dual identity made legible in a single detail.
Available at L'Industrie store in Pau — 14 rue des Cordeliers.
