Barbour jackets are a royal staple for fall 2024 — they're timeless and 'will last for years'
The royal family has worn Barbour jackets for more than 30 years — here's why.
Here at Yahoo Canada, we like to spend a good chunk of time dissecting royal style and finding affordable dupes for our favourite Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle pieces.
And while we're particularly talented in the dupe department, some pieces, like Barbour jackets, are actually relatively affordable (at least by royal standards).
Barbour has been worn by the royal family over the past 30-something years. Princess Diana, Kate Middleton and Queen Elizabeth have all been photographed in the British heritage brand, which has, incidentally, earned three Royal Warrants commending its high-quality designs.
If you're looking to upgrade your autumn wardrobe with one of these iconic, royal-approved coats, scroll below to shop some of our favourites, including the Classic Beadnell Coated Canvas Utility Jacket that's been called the "perfect" fall jacket by Altitude Sports shoppers.
This coated-canvas utility jacket is perfect for fall.
The details
The British heritage brand has earned the royal seal of approval — and for good reason. With its signature tartan lining and wide-wale corduroy collar, this cotton-lined Barbour jacket is a fall staple for any wardrobe, royal or otherwise.
The coat features two hand warmer pockets, a neck fastener, rear snap vents, slash hand pockets and comes lined with 100 per cent cotton. It's available in one colour on Nordstrom and three colours on Altitude Sports.
Why a Barbour jacket is worth the investment
Keeping in company with Queen Elizabeth, the Barbour brand has earned the seal of approval from Altitude Sports shoppers, with users commenting the Beadnell Wax Jacket is "perfect" for fall.
It's the "perfect transition jacket," writes one reviewer. It's "practical and stylish," it "repels water" and is "easy to maintain."
"The jacket is an absolute classic," commented another. "It’s been around for a long time for good reason," they add. It's "great quality and the distinct feel and smell of a waxed jacket."
A third reviewer "loves the details on this jacket." They say the wax is "even and nicely set" and note that all the stitching is "exact." It "feels like it is going to last forever."
