  Royal Male : Barbour is more than just clothing. It is a quiet passion for something lasting and truly authentic. It belongs to the landscape, evolved by time and weather. Barbour clothing has been made in the north east of England and the borders of Scotland since the 19th century. Quality has never been compromised, purpose never forgotten by the generations of weavers, tailors and seamstresses that have made each garment. It is this legacy which is celebrated by Barbour classics. Unique British country clothing that could only be Barbour. Barbour's classic range of jackets is based on the original Barbour proofing formula which is called Sylkoil. Soft, flexible and non-sticky, the oil proofs natural cotton drapes superbly, bringing an extra workability to the tailoring and cut, and more comfort and style to the wearer, while keeping out the wet for the general out-of-door man and woman.

The Main Types of Women's Outerwear

Outerwear divides by the job it does. Waxed cotton jackets — the Barbour speciality in this directory, proofed with wax since 1894 — keep out wet weather while draping softly, and suit country and dog-walking life as much as town. Down jackets and coats, the Moncler and Mackage territory, insulate with trapped air in baffled chambers: the warmest weight-for-weight option, in lengths from cropped jacket to full coat. Technical shells and outdoor jackets, Columbia's home ground, prioritise waterproof membranes and breathability for active use. Oilskin — Outback Trading's material — is cotton densely proofed for sustained rain in working outdoor life. The tailored wool coat is the layer that goes over dresses and suits, and knitwear-as-outerwear, from cashmere specialists such as Pringle, covers mild days. Most women need two of these: one weatherproof everyday layer and one tailored or dress layer.

Weatherproofing: Wax, Down, Membranes and Oilskin

Proofing ideas differ in kind, not just degree. Waxed cotton can be re-waxed at home or by the maker to restore its water resistance, and ages with a patina many wearers prize; it resists sustained rain well but is not storm-sealed at the seams. Laminated membranes in technical shells give the highest waterproof and breathability ratings, at the cost of a sportier look. Down is insulation, not proofing: a down coat needs a water-resistant shell fabric and loses warmth when soaked, which is why expedition designs pair down with proofed outers. Oilskin is the heavy-duty traditional answer, proofed cotton that sheds hours of rain and is maintained by re-dressing. Sealed seams, storm flaps over zips, adjustable cuffs and a hood that fits over hair without pulling matter as much as the headline fabric — an outerwear specialist store will explain which of its coats are built for a commute, which for a full day outdoors, and which for appearance first.

Fit, Layering and Care

Try outerwear on over the thickest layer you will wear beneath it. A coat should close without strain across the chest and hips with a sweater underneath, sleeves should cover the wrist with arms forward — driving, pushing a pram, holding a lead — and length is a real choice: hip-length jackets move easiest, knee and midi lengths protect and dress up more, and full-length coats are the warmest and most formal. Check the coat sitting down as well as standing, and check pockets: country and technical jackets earn handwarmer and secure inside pockets that tailored coats trade for a cleaner line. For care, hang coats on broad hangers to hold the shoulders, brush mud off once dry rather than washing, re-proof waxed cotton when water stops beading, and store down uncompressed so the loft survives the summer. Bought for the weather you actually get, a good coat from a store in this directory is a purchase measured in years.
