Barbour x TO KI TO
Archival innovation: A collaboration deep dive
One of our original and most revered collaborations is back. It has been over 10 years since Barbour and renowned Japanese designer, Tokito Yoshida, first collaborated. First brought together through a shared passion for British outdoor clothing, these limited edition collections have become a remarkable fusion of the Barbour archive and intricate design.
From the countryside to Hollywood, this collaboration transcends barriers. Most notably, the Barbour x Tokihito’s AW11 Sports jacket was adapted for Daniel Craig to wear as James Bond in the 2012 film Skyfall. This new collection builds on the best of our past but created for today. Read on for an exploration of the latest collection pieces. Discover wax jackets, quilts and knitwear.
The
Bicycle jacket
The Barbour x TO KI TO Bicycle Waxed Jacket has been designed with optimal practicality in mind. Each detail of this jacket has been considered, from how it will lie, move and function when stood or as the name suggests, sat riding a bicycle. Designed with an inner drawcord to the waist to allow you to cinch it in for a tailored silhouette, this style is complete with a functional hood that can be drawn in around the face and at the nape to allow it to move with you.
The
Driving quilted jacket
Inspired by the highly sought-after Barbour Commander Waxed Jacket, the Barbour x TO KI TO Driving Quilted Waxed Jacket offers a new season take. Perfectly suited to those looking for a multifunctional jacket, this style offers the option to transform the silhouette to suit your desired look. Features a detachable hood, convertible collar, and 6oz waxed cotton elbow and shoulder patches for a multidimensional look.
The
Sporting quilted wax jacket
Building from bond. The theme of repurposing is core to the inception of this collaboration. First seen 12 years ago in the adapted sporting jacket worn by Daniel Craig as James Bond in the film Skyfall, this new collection continues this exploration.
The new Barbour x TO KI TO Sporting jacket takes inspiration from the classic Liddesdale quilt, with a modern take on the traditional box quilting. With protection against the elements in mind, the jacket is lined with a thermal wadding to help heat retention and signature waxed cotton for all your outdoor adventures.
The
Outland wax jacket
Designed for jacket connoisseurs, the Outland jacket is the ultimate statement piece. Inspired by traditional military jackets, you can leave your bag at home as there is a pocket for your every need. With a waxed cotton style, you can trust in the functionality details as it comes equipped with venting zips to the back of the sleeves for temperature regulation and waterproof zip entrances.
