Five Generations of Barbour

We celebrate our 125th anniversary in 2019, a significant milestone in the company’s history. Still family owned (5th generation), this year is a celebration of the Barbour family who since 1894 have nurtured, guided and led the company from its small beginnings in 1894 supplying mariners with oilskins in South Shields in the North East of England, to the global lifestyle brand it is today.
