As you can see, it seems to be the quilted Barbour jackets that a lot of people are buying this Winter.  The wax versions, especially the Barbour Pegasus and International are popular as always but the quilt is what everyone wants.  Different stores and brands are selling very similar styles and colours but a lot of people like to save their hard earned cash to grab a piece of Barbour.

A lot of shops online are starting to sell out of certain styles of Barbour and having to re-stock certain versions of the more popular styles.  We hope that this list has gave you some insight as to what you are sure to see on the streets of your local town over Winter.  Let us know if you have purchased a new Barbour and what style you have gone for.  Is it one of the more popular versions?

Barbour Autumn Winter 2011 Collection

Barbour Zip

The Barbour Autumn/Winter 2011 collection has now hit the shelves and we are as excited as we ever have been about the release of a Barbour collection. This season Barbour have produced a large range of functional clothing for the cold winter months. As well as the usual Barbour jackets that they are so well known for, this year their stylish knitwear items are certain to be a hit with consumers and Barbour fans. Quality Marino wool has been used to craft some of the jumpers that they have produced alongside 7 guage wool mixes. This season we seem to be seeing a lot of hunting patches on the shoulders and elbow patches of items across various designer brands.  Barbour have used a quality suede material to produce some of the patches.


Barbour Cardigan

As usual we have a large selection of Barbour jackets in this collection.  They vary in style and we will be bringing individual coats and jackets in seperate posts over the following weeks.  Some take their inspiration from the Barbour motorcycle heritage whilst others take more of an outwearwear theme, which Barbour became famous for.  In particular the Barbour Beall jacket (picture below) is a new style that they have created for the AW11 collection.  A quilted jacket with roots steeped in that of mens workwear and industrial clothing, yet retaining a sense of style that would look perfect out and about in town.

As we get deeper into the Winter, the Barbour wellingtons are going to be in demand. They sit alongside Hunter Wellingtons as the must-have designer wellies for men and women.

So in conclusion we like the new Autumn Winter collection and are going to be featuring posts on individual products in the future.  Tell us your thoughts in the comments box below on the new collectionnd how you rate it against collections of years gone by
