Do you have any favourite knitwear brands that you layer under Barbour jackets in sub-zero conditions?

Barbour and Church's sandalwood Shannons for a rainy day

I like the Norlender Fisherman Sweaters. The same that LL Bean sells.

Hi! I am looking to buy a new Barbour, and cant for the life of me decide between Bedale and Beaufort. Have tried a 38 Beaufort and a 36 Bedale (store was out of 38) - any opinions? Will usually be worn with wider pants. I realize I will probably have to get both down the road..

The Beaufort is a bit roomier and longer (for me). Since I wanted to wear it over tailoring, I chose it over the Bedale. I'm thinking of picking up a wool Bedale, though I haven't seen a pattern that I like.

Agree with ppk. I've got both. I typically wear the Beaufort over a sport coat, the Bedale over a sweater.

I wouldn't wear a barbour in Sub zero. But if I had to, then a thick cashmere is the way to go.

Thank you both! Leaning towards the Beaufort to begin with, and then maybe I'll add the Bedale at a later point.

I picked up the Barbour x Baracuta MA-1 in archive olive in both medium and large to test fit and because I was sure I'd want them. They're great, but definitely deciding that they're not my cup of tea. Returns aren't doable, anyone want one? I know flippers are selling them for more on ebay, but I'm just looking to sell at cost, $600 for either shipped in the US Paypal F&F.

Attached a pic of the two to show I have them, I don't know why the shop scribbled out the barcode, but whatever.

Following up with another interest check...

I bought the To Ki To Shoreman and Bicycle jackets in size L a couple of weeks ago, but I pretty much only reach out for the Shoreman. I wore the Bicycle jacket a couple of times to walk my dog. $600 shipped in the US?
I also have an older Barbour X Margaret Howell A73 coat in size S from a few years back, that I'll sell for $175 shipped. I'll take pictures of both jackets and do proper listings soon.

Do any short men wear the Barbour Beaufort ?
I am a slim 5'7 male who already owns a Bedale (Navy) but looking to add a Beaufort in Olive to the collection.

The length comes to my mid/lower thigh wearing a size 36c. Is that too low ?
Am not looking to buy another Bedale or Ashby. Also i've noticed that the 'Classic' in olive looks abit more brown'y than green tones ?

Your opinions....
