The quality-price ratio is very good for their jackets produced in England , especially as the quality of the products has been maintained over the years, which is becoming more and more rare these days.
We particularly appreciate the brand's two iconic models: the Bedale and the Beaufort , concentrated on the attributes specific to Barbour jackets, namely:
These oiled canvas jackets will be an excellent alternative to more urban trench coats.
Finally, other Barbour products are not left out, particularly in terms of shirts and pants.
John Barbour founded his eponymous brand in 1894 and focused his efforts on producing sturdy oiled canvas clothing for sailors and dock workers. Little by little, the brand diversified, reaching many other professions and even launching biker clothing in 1911 (Steve McQueen, if you read us).
It was also this same company that developed the uniform of British submariners used during the Second World War: the legendary Ursula jacket was then born.
It was not until the 1980s, when the royal family adopted these jackets at their Balmoral residence, that Barbour would be considered a chic ready-to-wear brand . The Queen will also honor the house with the title of official supplier to the court in 1982, which will bring it to the rank of reference in the collective mind.
