Barbour Beacon
Inspired by the iconic ‘Herd Groyne’ lighthouse that finds itself placed at the mouth of the River Tyne in the North East of England, Barbour Beacon is a subdivision of the heritage apparel brand that reimagines the label’s archival lineage in line with modern context. Broadening out the brand’s 5th generation family owned business to welcome a youthful and function focused take on the brand’s outdoor orientated design style, Barbour Beacon pairs contemporary trend with classic cut and sew tradition to curate a refreshing aesthetic that appeals to the allure of both evolutionary cityscape settings and the brand’s rugged and rural underpinning.
A continuation of Barbour’s countrywear roots and inspired by inventive collaborations with the likes of Brendon Babenzien’s NOAH and Copenhagen’s Norse Projects, Barbour Beacon is a creative collection launched in 2018 that retains true to the family run company’s admiration for British heritage apparel across its reimagined, street friendly aesthetic. Neutral tones pair with pops of vibrant colour in keeping with contemporary trends, whilst a choice use of premium fabric and advanced techwear remains loyal to the South Shields based brand’s passion for explorative function and understated, utilitarian design.
