For heritage brands it can be tricky to remain current and find a common ground with each new generation of customer that comes through. A lot of them you won’t have even heard of; that’s because they probably didn’t even make it into this decade and sank without a trace. The ones that have made it and are leading the way you probably take for granted – and that’s how it should be.
Why? Because that means they’ve seamlessly embedded their classic heritage styles into the current trends, one range that does this well is Barbour’s classic heritage range . If you’re unfamiliar with Barbour it’s a family run business based on the north east coast of England, they’ve gained such global acclaim that they’ve collaborated with the likes of Paul Smith, TO KI TO and another English heritage brand Grenson on various collections. Despite this, it’s still the likes of their ‘Heritage’ line that continue to do extremely well and it’s from this line that we pick a lot of our stock for the coming seasons.
Here we’ve picked out 3 key items from the latest Barbour collection to give you a taste of what to expect…
Let’s start with a must-have for any man during the autumn/winter season; a jacket to help combat the elements. The Skipsea jacket will do that better than ever with 4" Cube quilting, 80/20 Duck Down and a detachable hood for heavy downpours. This jacket utilises naval inspired features from Barbour’s classic duffle; for instance the twisted string and wooded toggle fastening.
Knitwear is great for layering and they don’t come much better than the Caister Fairisle Crew knit that with alcantara elbow patches. Nothing says “quality” quite like ‘100% lamb’s wool’ and that’s exactly what you’re getting here.
To round things off, you’re going to need a solid shirt to suit virtually any occasions. The Spoke Shirt with slant pocket detailing in 100%brushed cotton is a great option.
