Created in the northeast of England at the end of the 1890s, Barbour was first designed to give fishermen and sailors clothing that would protect them against the uncertain climate of Great Britain. Today the brand expresses its history and its attachment to nature through pieces for women.
Barbour's collections are always of practical clothing, in plain and restrained colors but in a style that is instantly recognizable. Consciously desiring to create sustainable and long-lasting clothing, the British brand continues to develop its iconic pieces such as the waxed cotton jacket which has recently celebrated its 100th birthday, and which can be brought back to life by a simple "re-waxing" process. It will look as good as when it was first bought.
Designed for long-lasting everyday use, Barbour is an indispensable part of any wardrobe.
