Barbour works in collaboration with Italian label C.P. Company to celebrate the latter's 50th anniversary by launching a new slew of the La Mille jacket. The jacket is often referred to as the Goggle Jacket due to the incorporation of goggles at the hood of the silhouette.
Now returning in limited edition fashion, the jacket dates back to the 60s and features the most integral part of the design: the goggles. To celebrate five decades, the exclusive iteration of the jacket dyes the silhouette dramatically in four different colors. It is now offered in black, yellow, khaki, or orange, complete with co-branding details, the goggle hood, and Barbour's checkered interior lining, and the corduroy collar.
