Heritage Brand
Founded in 1894 by John Barbour in South Shields in the North of England, the fifth generation brand has stayed true to its roots and is still located there today.
From launching their first mail order catalogue in 1908 to 1934 when they introduced their first motorcycle collection. The company went from strength to strength in the following years, they received their first Royal warrant in 1974 from HRH the Duke of Edinburgh, their second in 1982 by Her Majesty the Queen and their third in 1987 by HRH the Prince of Wales.
The last 20 years have seen them win awards for their shooting ranges, a collaboration with Range Rover, Presenting for the first time at London Fashion Week and their latest achievement, a collaboration with model and designer Alexa Chung.
They have created a household name in the last 126 years and we can’t wait to see what they come up with next.
