NOAH's Reimagined Barbour Jackets Are Flawless & Fuzzy
It's that time of year again: NOAH x Barbour season. The pair is back with another winter-ready clothing collaboration just in time for the chilly weather.
This time, Brendon Babenzien's NOAH brand gives Barbour's most classic jackets attractive textural refreshes.
The NOAH x Barbour collection reimagines Barbour's outerwear from the '80s with sophisticated materials like fuzzy wool and cotton. Similar to past collaborations between the two brands, the latest marries workwear and tailoring, resulting in tough, clean looks for the season.
NOAH x Barbour kicks off with a collaborative Bedale jacket, Barbour's fan-favorite unisex coat now crafted with hairy Casentino wool in green, black, and orange colorways.
There's also a cotton version of the Bedale coat, which has been salt-washed to create a time-worn patina. The NOAH x Barbour jacket comes in similar color options (plus an additional berry purple colorway).
Finally, NOAH and Barbour's Border jacket arrives as a longer outerwear piece made from Donegal Tweed.
The NOAH x Barbour collection will drop on November 4 on NOAH and Barbour's websites and at their stores. For those adding the drop to your holiday wishlist, I'd send them off to Santa ASAP if I were you.
The new offering only strengthens the partnership between NOAH and Barbour (the Barbour hype, too). It marks the brand's fifth collection together, proving that NOAH x Barbour gets better with each drop.
"A fifth-year collaboration with NOAH is fantastic, and this AW24 collection really feels like an evolution of our previous collaborations, which have been received well by both audiences," Ian Bergin, Barbour's Director of Menswear, said in a press statement.
"Brendon's interpretation of Barbour always feels creative and innovative while respectfully nodding to our roots — it's this which makes the partnership such a natural fit."
