Barbour is a retail clothing company based in the United Kingdom with a variety of jackets and coats for men and women.

Ranging from food odors to cigarette smoke smell, any lingering odor in your Barbour jacket makes it smell dirty. You can get the smell out of your Barbour jacket with home remedies and have it in ready-to-wear condition for the next time you head out.
