Barbour Beaufort

[ville_e]

I'm looking for a jacket similar to the one pictured above. I believe that is the Barbour Beaufort Jacket. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Where can I get this exact jacket for a good price/bargain on the net?? Thanks in advance!!

I found it on sale on this site (not sure if it's the same jacket):

Is there anywhere where I can get it for cheaper?

I bought mine from the following:

I am in love with mine, but they do run a bit big.

Cool jacket. The Queen wears one.

(That's not actually the Queen, just a scene from the recent movie.)

Thanks a lot.. so far £159.00 is the best price.. Is there a net site which has an even better offer?

Those are definitely not Welsh Corgis.

It's a Beaufort in sage green. I'm wearing the same one today. I don't actually find them to run that big, and the arms are shortish. I wear a 41 suit jacket and took a 42/107cm Beaufort.

I believe that is a Beaufort in the picture at the top. I can't see if it has the handwarmer pockets and game pocket that would be dead giveaways.

In the US, you can sometimes find Barbour jackets at Orvis outlets, but I think STP may be your best bet for cheapest.

I'll also echo the comment that they run large in the body but short in the sleeves. I am between a 42 and 44, and bought the 42. It is still sized generously enough for me to wear a sportscoat underneath with the additional liner, but the sleeves are a hair too short when I extend my arms.

I bought the brown Vintage Beaufort from STP for about 150 USD, but would have preferred one with corduroy collar or the contemporary/slim version. http://www.sierratradingpost.com/p/1...t-For-Men.html Other sources: Ebay UK http://shop.ebay.co.uk/items/?_nkw=b...bour&_osacat=0 www.johnnorris.co.uk http://www.my-wardrobe.com/menswear http://www.oipolloi.com/brands/Barbour-60.html http://www.farfetch.com/shopping/sal...our/items.aspx In US: http://www.fishingthecape.com/waxed-cotton-outwear.html

On the topic of beaufort jackets, does anyone have any tips for washing them?

I haven't worn mine in months as my hands reek just from touching it.

Cleaning tips from Barbour site

My wax jacket is soiled how can I clean it?

To remove the soiling we recommend sponging with cold water.

Do not use soaps or detergents as these will affect the performance of the wax finish.

Great jacket, i recently bought my girlfriend one for £100.

I have a Barbour Beaufort and a Bedale, and actually prefer the Bedale. It is just a hair shorter in length, similar stying, but has rear vents and knit cuffs, which make the jacket that much better than it's counterpart imo.

Try to get an "old" Beaufort, which still has the green/yellow/whitish tartan lining. The others look too new
