Barbour and Wander Launch a New Capsule for the Great Outdoors
Barbour and Wander have entered a collaboration that has resulted in a number of reimagined Barbour silhouettes. The UK brand has certainly prioritized strategic partnerships this season as this drop with Japanese label Wander comes shortly after the British company's collaboration with NOAH.
The Barbour and Wander capsule reworks classic silhouettes like the Bedale jacket with a modern lens. Wander adds "durable waterproof construction, hand warmer pockets, a removable hood, and 3M hits" to this design. The collection also includes a hooded parka with a ripstop shield, as well as the casual Pivot jacket with snap pockets and chest zippers. Aside from outwear, Wanter also focuses on layering with flannel shirts and cardigan-style fleeces that feature details like "Tartan design and distinctive corduroy collars."
