If you've noticed the nights drawing in and the evenings getting a bit cooler, like us you may be feeling a bit sad to see the end of summer.

One of the things that cheers us up most as we head into autumn is planning outfits - there's just something about autumn fashion that's so hard to top!  We're not sure if it's the earthy tones, cosy materials, or brand classics that we love the most.

One key staple of all country wear autumn wardrobes is the Wax Jacket. Here we take a look at some of the options available this season for Men, Women, Children and even the Dog!

Barbour are a leading manufacturer of Wax Jackets, and all of our favourites this season come from this popular brand. Each of the men's Barbour Waxed Jackets highlighted include some of the same great features: Weatherproof waxed cotton, handy pockets, zip and press stud fastenings, corduroy collar...

Delve a bit deeper and you'll find a choice or weights - the lightweight Alderton Wax at 4oz cotton, the middleweight Stratford Wax at 6oz, and the Winter weight Hereford Wax at 8oz plus wadded lining

Again, Barbour features heavily in our highlighted ladies wax jacket choices. The styling, the quality, and the practicality are just second to none!

There's a less subtle difference between our ladies choices, so you can really choose the design that works with your style best. Perhaps it's the classic Aintree Wax, which features traditional bellows and handwarmer pockets, a corduroy collar, and very classic silhouette. Or maybe you prefer to cosy up for autumn with the extra long length Hartwith Wax, which comes complete with an adjustable wait and luxurious faux fur trim. Or is the ultra feminine belted Heatherview Wax more your look?

Whichever you choose, you can be sure your Wax Jacket will be a wardrobe staple for many years to come.

We've chosen something a little different (and a lot more practical) for the kids, with this fantastic Joules Moorwell Jacket.This cute little jacket features the same classic styling and gorgeous finish as a traditional wax jacket, without any of the upkeep. Unlike traditional waxed cotton this kids jacket is machine washable, so your little ones can enjoy the outdoors without you having to worry!

Well you wouldn't want the family dog feeling left out would you?

As well as the ultra stylish finish, the Barbour Wax Dog Coat is super practical too. Designed to keep your pet warm and dry, this coat features a heavy wax lining, a turn up collar for extra protection, adjustable neck velcro fastening, and a buckled belly strap.
