Oily Jack England Avis 

A faultless experience from start to finish. The communication was excellent as was the finished product (sleeve lengthening and relaxing). Great prices too. I'd highly recommend Oily Jack.

I had a Fjallraven jacket rewaxed. It came back looking great and well worth the money.

Absolutely thrilled with the results on my jacket! Oily Jack turned my battered old jacket into a battle hardened beast. The jacket wears its subtle repair patches like a badge of honour. Communication with the team was excellent and the workmanship is exceptional.

The waxed feel is absolutely back all over what had been a tired dry jacket.

I couldn’t be happier.

Barbour would not customise my Brown and Green Corbridge Jackets. Repairs & alterations only. Oily Jack had no such qualms. I now have two totally unique jackets as a result of mixing different Brown & Green waxed materials for cuff & hem bindings, plus repair patches. Once waxed the jackets were superb. Both Sasha and Ashley were a joy to work with. You want some customisation?
Have Oily Jack undertake the work. You will not be disappointed. John G

I gave oily Jack my Merlin motorcycle jacket, which has been on many adventures with me, when I received it back clearly the rewaxing had been carried out and looks ready for the next adventure but more importantly to me it has retained its ‘lived in’ appearance, I was concerned it was going to be returned all shiney like a new pin, but what I received back was MY jacket with all its earned character. Great service, Great communication, the pick up and drop off was seamless.

An excellent service all round. I sent my RGT jacket to be re waxed and the team did such an amazing job it came back like new. Thank you to all the team, highly recommend, great service, great quality and great value for money

Long time for the process!
Not happy with the waxing service!

Amazing service and a fantastic company.

My father passed away a couple of years ago and my mother wanted his Barbour jacket restored.

She couldn’t have been happier with the quality of the restoration and wears his jacket everyday.

Thank you Olly Jack.

Great service

Friendly efficient service

Did a great job with the coat, waterproof but not greasy.
Went the extra mile to retrieve the coat after Royal Mail did their best to lose it.

Sent my jacket in for a pocket repair, clean and rewax. Took longer than expected (5 weeks), but came back this Christmas eve 2025 like new. I was very pleased. However, wore it out in January in light rain, for about 1 hour and the rain has came through the shoulders and back. It did'nt do this before I sent it in. I did send an email about this but never recieved any message back after 2 weeks. Sent another email asking about this 2 weeks ago and still no answer. Sending another email today 20th February 2026.

Great job and service as usual.

Really easy process with a fantastic end product. I’d highly recommend oilyjack..!

Great service at a great price, my item was returned to me looking like new again..

Excellent service from start to finish. Really trusted them with my partner’s vintage jacket from his dad and they truly delivered. Only wish I had more vintage Belstaffs so I could use them again!

I Can't thank the team for not only doing a great job but all the help with postage and service. Thay really know how to look after customers new and old.

Really great company. Communication was excellent throughout and everything was handled clearly and efficiently over email.

They lengthened the sleeves on my Barbour jacket, which has completely transformed it. It went from being something I barely wore to a jacket that’s now in constant rotation — I wear it all the time.

The workmanship is spot on and the whole process felt straightforward and professional from start to finish. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again, and for anything Barbour- or jacket-related in the future, Oily Jack will be my first point of contact.

Highly recommended.

I saw the reviews here and decided to go for it and book a clean and re-wax for a coat. It’s been about a week now, they’ve sent two emails asking for details, both of which I have replied within a couple of hours. I have even sent a separate email with the information to the contact email provided here.

Unfortunately, I was too cocky and ignored the bad reviews, thinking it would not happen to me, but can now confirm communication is terrible. At best, it is their email server being faulty, or overly cautious sending things to spam, or at worse their team is not good at actually pick up their emails. Either way can confirm their communication is not good.

Really dissapointed, and will now have to see if I can get my money back.

-edit-

Like I said in my review above I did reply to both emails. They are now blaming me for inputting “the wrong email”, nonsense, and a bit gaslighty. I used to think the communication problems were just IT based, but the reply to this review makes me doubt it, as it proves it the concerns I raised were not carefully read or considered.

-edit-
I have also been notified by the review company that Oily Jack tried to report my review as defamatory, so who knows how many other costumers have not been able to express their true experience with them.

My queries about the best treatments for my jacket were very promptly answered. The jacket is over 30 years old, and had never been previously cleaned.
I elected to have an enzyme clean and rewax/proof and sent my jacket off.
When it was returned the lining had lost its grubby look and looked very smart, and the jacket exterior had regained a lot of its original colour but had not lost its ‘worn in’ charm.
Well done Oily Jack.
