Barbour / Alexander Leathers collaboration

[barnabus]

Idly browsing Barbours on eBay (I love a Barbour, me) I came across this collaboration - a mashup I've never heard of before. Barbour x Triumph, manufactured from Cordovan Horween steer.

What do we think?

I confess that whilst I love an International, this looks a bit hard work to me, and with so much leather making up so much jacket, the cordovan is a bit much too.

Not in that colour..or that price...£450 maybe.

It won't get any love here

Well, it looks like a leather Barbour International. With all that heavy HH, I can't imagine it being comfortable. I would think it would work much better in a lighter leather that drapes more.

I've never been a fan of those types of Barbour jackets, but I bet it would look pretty badass with some serious wear and tear on it. I also like that there isn't a Barbour (or any other) logo.

Looks like something that might have gone over big at the old Hellfire Club in NY. All that collar needs is a leash.

That looks like a heavy beast ... I bet ( once tamed and beaten up a bit ) it would be nice though.

It won't get much love here though .... but I'd wear it

I love the leather and the color is a fav of mine. I'm not to keen on the style tho. It would be a stout jacket for sure.

I think the weight is no more than 6 lbs even though it looks heavy

LOL...I'm stealing this gif. This is useful.

All I ask is that you not use it in reference to me.

Of course not. I was thinking of making it my email signature.

Totally ridiculous looking and not really worth commenting on............

Euphemistically speak, of course . . . but what do you really think of it?

I think you'll find plenty of these in Barbour remainer shops.

Interesting jacket, although not my style either...

I personally don't like it on any level, but we're all different. If YOU like it, that's all that matters...

I think the biggest problem, or is it the smallest problem, are the tiny breast pockets! The great thing about the Barbour and the Belstaff equivalent, are the giant pockets. For those of us that use them for motorcycling, we love those big old pockets, you can get a pair of winter gauntlets in the lower pockets, and still have room in the uppers for maps, tools, even a sandwich.
