Barbour celebrates 120th anniversary with unique video series
Words: Charlie Thomas
Barbour has been synonymous with classic British style for well over a century now. It’s been 120 years to be exact and the family-owned company show no signs of slowing down.
Having passed through five generations, Barbour has always offered premium country-inspired clothing for those after quality, timeless design. The British brand are celebrating this with a series of unique, expertly shot videos highlighting signature pieces from their collections over the years.
In their current collections, Barbour’s core ethos of ultimate functionality is prevalent, but when looking back at these vintage pieces it’s easy to see just how ahead of their time they really were. Pioneering the waxed cotton fabric, as well as features such as the storm flap, elasticated cuffs, adjustable leg straps and the ‘clip on’ hood, Barbour were, and still are, masters of functional clothing.
