Barbour »Classic Beaufort« Waxed Jacket

The »Classic Beaufort« waxed jacket was originally designed in 1983 as a hunting sport jacket drawing inspiration from the hunting jackets that were popular in France at the time. The chairwoman, Dame Margaret Barbour, is responsible for the design of this classic waxed jacket. The »Beaufort« is distinguished by its slightly longer fit and generous sizing.It is crafted using the proven and durable 6 oz. Thornproof fabric, made in the UK through a unique »Thornproof« process without synthetic additives. This makes the transitional jacket both wind- and waterproof, while its breathability ensures a comfortable wearing climate. The comfortable raglan shape allows a high degree of freedom of movement. Production continues to this day at the company's own manufacturing facility in South Shields, in the northeast of England.The »Beaufort« waxed jacket has a slightly longer cut and can be worn comfortably over a blazer. Characteristic details such as the corduroy collar, a two-way zip and practical handwarmer pockets give this weather-resistant waxed jacket its classic look. Special features include the practical poacher’s pocket with side zips at the lower back, an easily accessible zip pocket under the storm flap and the cotton lining with tartan pattern. The sleeve cuffs have a polyester insert on the inside that can be adjusted using a hook-and-loop fastener, offering protection against penetrating moisture.The »Beaufort« jacket can be supplemented with a warming zip-in liner and a matching hood as needed to meet individual requirements and the respective weather conditions.
