SIGN UP FOR THE LATEST BARBOUR NEWS HERE All About Wax A History of Barbour Jackets THE TIMELINE The history of our archive jackets is both unique and interesting in the evolving story of Barbour. We’re very proud to be in possession of jackets which date back from as early as 1910; each one telling a different story. We frequently delve into our past; it’s where we find lots of our design inspiration. So take a journey through our archives and find out all about wax. 1910 - Uncle Harry's Coat The oldest jacket in Barbour’s archive. Affectionately called ‘Uncle Harry’s’ coat, it was passed down through many generations of the Macpherson-Fletcher family before being returned to Barbour. An all purpose double breasted outdoor coat, it was used to protect the wearer against foul weather in all situations. 1920s - Riding Cape A 1920s wax cape used for riding or driving carriages which offered complete weatherproof protection. The Cape had braces which fastened over the body so it could be pulled back rather than being taken off completely if the wearer became too hot.

1936 - International Motorcycle All In One Suit Developed specifically for the 1936 International Six Day Trials (ISDT), the International suit was ergonomically designed with pivot race sleeves to give the rider greater arm movement.

Vincent were known as the “makers of the world’s fastest standard motorcycles” and to mark this tie up between the two businesses, the International was produced in a black wax cotton with gold snaps. Black and gold were the iconic colours of the Vincent Owners Club.

1964 - The Black Streak A popular motorcycle jacket in the 60s, the Black Streak was made from a new and innovative strong, pliable black PVC material backed throughout with a black and white fleecy check for warmth. The jacket came with a deep collar, adjustable studded throat tab, close fitting cuffs to make them windtight and bellows pockets side pockets. 1980 - The Bedale One of Barbour's signature wax jackets, the Bedale was introduced into the range in 1980. Lightweight, thornproof and short in length it was originally designed by Chairman Dame Margaret Barbour, as an equestrian jacket - the shorter length was ideal when riding. It has all of Barbour's signature attributes, two big bellow pockets, a large pull ring two way zip and corduroy collar. While it continues to be popular amongst people working and living in the country, more recently, it has become a fashionable choice for city dwellers who aspire to the country look. Worn by some of the stars of Glastonbury including the Arctic Monkeys and Lily Allen, the Bedale is a classic Barbour wax jacket that is now as comfortable in the urban jungle as it is in the country.

1982 - Gamefair Jacket (Falkland War Customisation) A 6oz, heavily military, customised weatherproof jacket. Features the original corduroy collar, dark anti-glare studs for optional hood, press-studded throat flap and stormfly front. The history of these two jackets is unique and interesting in the evolving story of Barbour. The uniqueness lies in the customisation which changed the end use of a country jacket to a jacket ’fit’ for the theatre of war. Barbour are very proud to be in possession of jackets which were adapted in our customer service repair and reproof department to the exacting specifications of a captain in the Parachute Regiment. Pockets, repairs and strength overlays have been added to the jackets for purely practical purposes. It is both touching and sobering to see the hand written blood group and ranking ciphers on the first aid pocket attached to the inside of the coats. The ‘random’ set-up adds to the aesthetic charm of these jackets which in hindsight are ‘beautifully’ designed.
