Barbour International - Heritage Motorcycle jacket



Barbour began to design and make motorcycle clothing in 1913 although the company formed in 1894. Famous for the durability and classic style, authentic and fit for purpose - Barbour belongs wherever people gather to enjoy life beyond the city. Today Barbour jackets have seen a growth on to the fashion scene away from just being "fit for purpose" , Why? Its because paying money for a jacket that's worth its value, that going to last longer than others make more sense. The fact that heritage clothing seems to be leading makes Barbour the choice of many.
The iconic Barbour International was introduced to the collection in 1936, initially as one piece suit, which evolved in to a two piece with the famous slanted pockets. The international proved a firm favourite with many trials riders, including Steve McQueen, and the American ISDT Team of 1964. Barbour garments were worn by nearly every British team between 1936 to 1977.
In the 50s and the 60s the International also became a part of the Rockers' uniform. Today, the International influences many Barbour's heritage designs, with both the distinctive black and yellow International badge, and the Union Jack of the British trials team inspiring bolder contemporary styles. Whatever the garment, however, Barbour's legendary durability and quality of materials and construction have never been compromised.
