Barbour’s FW24 Heritage+ Collection Offers A Directional Take On Archival Classics

As a lifelong admirer of Barbour, steeped in the British countryside and its unpredictable weather, I can’t help but be thrilled by the brand’s Fall/Winter 2024 Heritage+ collection. With roots tracing back over a century, Barbour’s latest offering is a testament to their commitment to traditional craftsmanship while keeping an eye on contemporary trends.


As a devoted admirer, I’m thrilled to share that the iconic British brand Barbour has unveiled their Fall/Winter 2024 collection for the Heritage+ line. They’re skillfully blending modern aesthetics with timeless designs, fabrics, and construction techniques from their rich history.

This year, the brand unveiled its Heritage+ line, a contemporary embodiment of its 130-year history. The collection includes essential Spring/Summer 2024 clothing items. As for the creation of this particular assortment, menswear director Ian Bergin explains, “Heritage+ represents Barbour at its most genuine. It maintains our traditional craftsmanship, featuring tartan linings and brass fixtures, but with a more trend-focused approach. We’ve meticulously recreated pieces from our archive, adjusting the fit to cater to today’s market.”

This season’s collection is created using pieces from the brand’s rich history, stored in their original factory in South Shields. The brand’s roots are reflected in this lineup, which emphasizes durable clothing meant to be kept within families. Key items, such as the Heritage Dry Fly Waterproof, demonstrate the brand’s direction this season by blending modern twists onto timeless designs. These signature pieces feature updated silhouettes, innovative materials, and extra features.

Not only does Barbour reimagine timeless pieces such as the Spey waterproof coat and the equestrian-inspired Bedale wax jacket, but they also debut fresh designs that capitalize on current fashion trends. For instance, their Field Vertical Quilted jacket takes advantage of the popularity of quilted liners by adding striped seams reminiscent of military coats, giving it a unique twist.

To complete the assortment, the brand offers a variety of mid-layer garments too, such as the Gansey crew neck sweater and T-shirts with a boxy fit, embellished with ’90s inspired graphic designs from their catalogs. Embracing the same natural color scheme found in its outerwear, these items can be effortlessly combined to match various weather conditions or outdoor adventures.

To commemorate its upcoming launch, Barbour is organizing a unique gathering at their freshly opened Neal Street store in London, coming up next week. Surrounding the Fall/Winter 2024 assortment, Bergin will engage in an exclusive chat with TopMob and renowned stylist Leon Cerrone. This conversation will delve into Barbour’s 130th anniversary, the significance of innovation, and a close look at his preferred pieces from the new collection, such as the Barbour Bedale wax trench coat.
