Barbour x Baracuta
Leading British lifestyle and heritage brand, Barbour has collaborated for the first time with fellow British brand, Baracuta on a capsule collection for AW23; a celebration of Baracuta’s One and Only Original Harrington Jacket - known worldwide as the G9. Born in Manchester in 1938, just one year after the brands inception, 2023 marks its 85th Anniversary. The collection re-imagines this iconic style with Barbour’s signature details to create a contemporary interpretation of a much-loved classic, merging heritage with modernity. With seamless synergy, the Barbour x Baracuta collaboration celebrates Baracuta’s quintessential British heritage with Barbour's deep-rooted DNA and classic functional features to finish.
The collection is inspired by the preppy ‘Ivy League Style’ which first rose to prominence at the turn of the 20th century. Pioneered by elite East Coast American students who desired clothing that took them from the lectures to the sports field, it was a huge attraction amongst Brits in the 1960s, who interpreted this style and made it their own. The UK Ivy League look was more modish and included new elements such as workwear, silk scarfs and panelled flat caps. Paying homage to these links, this collection presents three styles in various colourways that embraces this concept. In three distinctive outerwear styles, the jackets feature a striking combination of both brands signature tartans, the Barbour Classic Tartan and Baracuta Fodera Fraser Tartan lining.
