Offical Barbour Thread

[Kamil1987]

I see some in outlets that have neon logos on the pockets. Could be an outlet model?

I doubt, because that would mean that particular jackets (with neon logos) were made especially for Outlets which does not make much sense.
I had one Ashby in orange with bright neon-green logo on the pocket. My wife has got black quilted jacket woth gold logo on it. I think that these are more seasonal/limited collections.

Thanks for the gold-logo info. Thinking of buying a black one on eBay with a green/gold logo but it's sized 'S' rather than a specific chest size so have decided not to take the chance since a 36in Bedal is a great fit for me.

Here's my one and only Barbour coat (aside from my Bedale). It's still got the tags on it. Don't know how old it is. Bought it for £50 from a mate. It stunk and he didn't want it in his house but I squirted a vodka spritz all over it followed by Fabreeze. Worked a treat. The old ones with the blue tartan lining fit slimmer than than the new ones I have found and also have shorter arms. Which suits me better.

That’s mad how it still has the tags on! I love getting new old stock Barbour items.

My old Barbour. Bought it in a vintage store some years ago. It's extremely heavy and like nothing else I've seen. Love the big collar. Anyone with knowledge please let me know when it's from.

Woah! That’s the original Northumbria from the 70s.

It's a great model. Have the border too, my only Barbour jackets. Nice review of yours! I have been trying to find other vintage Barbour jackets in similar make like mine, but to no luck.

What’s your size? I have the solway zipper in c40 im looking to unloaf.

Ok, Im bigger, 42 to 44 but thanks. It's cool news that I own the original one and that it's that old. No wonder I didn't find another one then. I see that you're in Kent, UK. Have you been to Hornets vintage in Kensington? That's where I got this one. They have a large collection of Barbour jackets usually.

Any suggestions on what to do with the Barbour x Norton & Sons collection which I probably have about 80% of their offerings. Should anyone have any trade ideas, feel free to PM. At least 90% are NWT with only the St. Kilda being worn around 5 or so times.

East Tennessee being so bloody humid does not often lend itself to waxed cotton.

Sizes?

Sizes?

About 75% of them are size Large. The St. Kilda and I think one other are XL.
