Established in 1894 in South Shields, England, Barbour began as a provider of waterproof clothing for mariners before becoming renowned for its motorcycling clothing and outdoor sporting attire. The brand’s rich heritage and hard-working origins are deeply ingrained, ensuring that the principles of durability and protection against the elements are literally and figuratively woven into the fabric of Barbour garments.
Today, Barbour is synonymous with impeccable craftsmanship and classic British style. Its celebrated waxed jackets are a hallmark of the Barbour name; seamlessly blending practicality with elegance, they’re as likely to be seen at Glastonbury festival as they are at Badminton Horse Trials.
Barbour products cater to diverse lifestyles, now encompassing cosy knitwear, rugged footwear, stylish accessories and even a dedicated collection for four-legged companions.
Barbour’s boutique at Bicester Village, in the Oxfordshire countryside, is the perfect place to discover a globally revered British brand – find it among the Village’s leafy boulevards just off the M40 north of Oxford, within easy reach of London, Birmingham and surrounding areas.
