A History of J Barbour and Sons
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 stylish functional clothing for men, women, children and dogs inspired by the unique values of the British countryside. This includes shirts, trousers, knitwear, dresses, accessories and footwear alongside Barbour’s legendary outerwear. Barbour International, inspired by the company’s motorcycle heritage since 1936, became a stand-alone brand in 2013 with its own identity, look and feel.
Today, Barbour is sold in over 55 countries worldwide, including the UK, Europe, the US and Asia.
