A fifth-generation family owned business, Barbour has grown from humble beginnings in South Shields, North East England.
Dealing predominantly in oilskins and waxed cotton outerwear, the company produced their first mail order catalogue in 1908 and laid the foundation for Barbour becoming an internationally recognised brand. Barbour’s peerless, iconic waxed outerwear with its distinctive smell, steeped in tradition has seen it become a British institution.
