ABOUT BARBOUR JACKETS

Pre-loved Barbour jackets have been a fashion statement for generations, and there's a good reason why. Barbour wax jackets are an iconic, timeless style that has been around since the early 1900s. Whether you are after a stylish jacket for yourself or searching for a unique gift for someone special, pre-loved Barbour jackets are a great choice. Not only are they durable and stylish, but they also come in a variety of colours and designs to suit every occasion. 

 

Known since the early 1900s, Barbour Men's Jackets were born as a solution to provide quality protective clothing to fishermen, farmers and miners in 1894. The company has gained an international reputation for the production of its popular wax jackets, which can be seen worn by people of all walks of life. It is instantly recognizable by its signature tartan lining and rugged construction, making it both durable and stylish. The iconic waxed cotton material is water and wind-proof, and it is perfect for all kinds of inclement weather. Much like in modern vintage clothing stores, you can find the Barbour jacket in many antique shops today, proof that it has always been one of the most enduringly popular designs.

 

The Barbour men's jackets and Barbour Wax Jackets of today trace their origins back to the early 1900s when English clothier John Barbour created a line of waterproof waxed cotton outerwear. This clothing was designed to withstand the wet and cold English weather and proved to be exceptionally popular among farmers and those who worked outdoors. It wasn’t until much later that the Barbour jacket gained traction as a fashion statement.
In the 1950s, British royalty began to be seen wearing Barbour jackets, thus helping to solidify the jacket's status as an iconic piece of fashion. Later, when Steve McQueen wore a Barbour in The Great Escape (1963), the jacket gained worldwide fame, becoming a must-have for men across the globe. 
As time passed, Barbour jackets went from being strictly functional items to becoming a key item of clothing for anyone who wanted to appear fashionable. They became a symbol of style, sophistication and class – something which still holds today. Not only do Barbour jackets offer protection from the elements, but they also exude a timeless quality that can never go out of style.
