Modernity, precision and sophistication are at the heart of the range,” Barbour said.

New for this season, and to tie in with the 2015 Rugby World Cup, there will be a special rugby capsule collection. Gilets, shirts, rugby shirts, tees and sweaters feature alongside “iconic” quilted and wax jackets.
Paul Wilkinson, global marketing director for Barbour, said at the time of the launch: “There is a strong synergy between our two companies.We are both established British brands with years of heritage, renowned for our understated style and links to the countryside, yet we are both just as comfortable in an urban environment. ”
