Cleaning and Reproofing Barbour Jackets
The story of the Barbour Jacket dates back to 1894 when John Barbour, of Galloway, Scotland started J. Barbour and Sons Ltd., a company importing oil cloth, in South Shields, England. Five generations later, the family still owns the business, sourcing products from around the world, but also manufacturing their classic wax jackets by hand in Simonside, South Shields.
