is barbour bedale jacket effay?

[Anonymous No.10267389]

>>10267238
Yes. As with most Barbours you get grear quality, good design and a practical jacket. Make sure to look for other models too, there's a shitload.
Bedale has the advantage of being shorter, so if you're a manlet...
Beaufort is great if you're tall and going for a baggier look.
The motorcycle jackets are also nice if you don't enjoy looking like British royalty.

>>10267463
Buy it used. Bought one on ebay for..60 bucks? Not too abused, too.

Also, take a look at the quilted "commander" clone. Current collection. Really cool.

its a good fit apart from hair, glasses and hat

[Anonymous No.10268624]

>>10267795
Not in the /fit/ and /fa/ sense. Bedale is better if you're under 5'9 or something. Beaufort is better if you're 6'1+, unless you want an explicitely short jacket.
Just try them both on, you'll see. Barbour sizing is too weird to order online anyway, unless you've had the jacket before.

need something warm

[Anonymous No.10269304]

>>10269300
nope; unless you get the inner liner, which is quite warm (I own it)
very good in wind and rain, though
and it's built sturdy

I use mine in the winter with a thick pullover under it. No problems with the German winter so far.

I have this one. More kind of streetwear than the traditional Bedales

"made in Bulgaria" I assume

Why do you say that? I bought it used at Camden Stables Market

how versatile is this jacket? can't really see it going with sneakers and denim

[Anonymous No.10272080]

>>10272071
probably could. i see it as being on par in formality with an oxford shirt. sneakers, sure. sweatpants? probably not.

[Anonymous No.10272081]

>>10272071
not with flashy sneakers but it's not too bad with low key ones. It definitely goes fine with denim, especially indigo.

[sieg No.10272092]

>>10267238
used to have the longer version i don't think so

used to use it for hunting/shooting trap/ plinking

but now i just keep spare magazines in the back pocket of some cheap shit uniqlo selvedge

better shoot -> need less rounds down range these days

college kid days i'm sitting there swapping out Pmags wondering why i wasn't hitting shit

[Anonymous No.10272093]

>>10272071
its an incredibly versatile jacket, which becomes much more apparent once you actually have it in front of you. you can wear it with pretty much anything

[Anonymous No.10272348]

>>10268624
Alright cool, what if you're in between those numbers, round off? I've never had experience with them before but I'm interested.

[Anonymous No.10272367]

I have this Scotch and Soda jacket

[Anonymous No.10272414]

Then pick according to what you want. A Bedale will give you more of a jacket while a Beaufort is more like a coat. I personally prefer the Bedale, because I'm short and also it has nifty windstoppers on the sleeves. The Beaufort is the more practical jacket, as it's longer, has more room for thick layers underneath and a very large back pocket originally intended for dead game, hares for example (which is excellent for carrying beer).

Basically if you're using it as an outdoorsman, pick the Beaufort. If you're a law student wearing it on windy days on campus pick the Bedale. If you want something really nice but less practical (no zipper, only buttons), take the commander.

Barbour doesnt make long sizes, do they?

[Anonymous No.10272467]

>over 300€
I-I didn't like it that much anyways...

[Anonymous No.10272564]

>>10272467
It'll last you for years. I've owned two Barbours so far and I've been wearing one constantly since I was 5. That's 17 years and I only threw out the first because I (obviously) grew out of it. Second one is seven years old now. Still looks great.

Thanks for the recommendations anon, appreciate it.

Every time I wear my Bedale, I think about this article

[Anonymous No.10272606]

>>10272564
I get that, but I just can't justify to drop 300 bucks into a jacket right now, no matter how many years I will get out of it, or how great it looks.

Might aswell do as the other anon said and look for a second hand one, since they can hold well some wear and tear.
