Barbour

The Barbour story began in 1894 in the Market Place in South Shields in the North East of England. Over 130 years on and now 5th generation, this family-owned business remains in the North East. Barbour’s headquarters, located in Simonside, South Shields is also home to the factory where Barbour’s iconic Bedale and Beaufort wax jackets are still manufactured by hand and where customer services lovingly re-wax, repair and Re-Love wax jackets and mend quilts by hand enabling customers to extend the lives of their jackets.

Barbour offers a wardrobe of legendary outerwear inspired by the unique values of the British countryside.
