Barbour Luggage: Everything You Need to Know

Travelling, whether for a city break, a rural getaway, or a daily commute, requires luggage that is as functional and long-lasting as it is undoubtedly stylish for the modern man. And Barbour is one of the most recognisable brands when it comes to traditional British heritage and unwavering quality.
The ideal weekend or everyday bag is an essential extension of your individual style. For this reason, we've taken a look at four essential iconic pieces from the most recent Barbour luggage collection, which combines classic style with contemporary functionality.

So, looking to go away anytime soon? Maybe it's time to upgrade your luggage, or if you're looking for the perfect gift, I have the answer for you. Let's have a look at the Barbour luggage collection for this autumn-winter. Let's go.

The Barbour Torridon Backpack

So firstly, let's begin with this, this is the Barbour Torridon Backpack, it's made of poly, lovely and lightweight, washable, cleanable, just highly, highly usable, which is what you want in a day-to-day bit of luggage like this backpack. Zip closure front compartment, dual Barbour zips on the top for the main compartment. In here, you've got a padded laptop sleeve as well, so your electronics will be nice and safe and padded. It's in their iconic classic tartan all over print and a nice tasteful bit of new luggage branding for this season featuring the Barbour Beacon. Absolutely brilliant bit of day-to-day wear use.

The Barbour Torridon Holdall

Next up from the same collection, we have the Torridon Holdall. So this guy is definitely useful as a little sort of weekender bag. Two nice little carry straps on the top, you have inside as well a shoulder strap which just attaches, but it's just a nice big cube of luggage, definitely extends out, lots of space in there, internal pockets, external zip pockets, you’re getting that same sort of poly construction as well, so highly durable, highly usable all over tartan print and a lovely bit of branding to the front there. Combine that with your backpack, and you are good to go carrying your stuff around in true Barbour style. Lovely lightweight bag, perfect for those short trips, especially if you’re going out on the weekend.

The Barbour Washbag in Classic Tartan

And when you're ever going away, every man needs a very good wash bag. Now, this is part of the same collection; this is their tartan wash bag. Revamped for this season, they've gone away from that sort of wool feel, and they're staying with this all-over poly tartan print. Same new iconic branding on the front, good, nice, useful zip, handy little leather strap which would be used to hang it with, you can use to carry it with, but the best thing is it matches in beautifully with the holdall and the backpack, and there's nothing better than a bit of cohesive luggage. Definitely an essential, and it makes a perfect gift.

The Barbour Field Wax Holdall

There is one thing Barbour is known for, and that is their wax cotton jackets. Now, if that is something that you love and you want to see that translated into your luggage, then I've got the thing for you. This is the Field Wax Holdall; it is probably the absolute ‘big daddy’ of this collection of luggage; it is ginormous. It extends out to a great size, with two lovely long carry straps, but also inside, there is the option to put the old shoulder strap on as well.
Get it over your shoulder, this thing is going to last you an absolute lifetime. You can re-wax it like you wax your jackets. So it's weatherproof, rain or shine, this thing is going to see you right. Nice hefty big pocket on the inside. There is a huge internal pocket as well, plenty to get at there, all the Barbour hardware, all the bells and whistles, and even a nod with that beautiful tartan cotton. 
All classic tartan, all very Barbour, this thing is the absolute Rolls-Royce of Barbour’s luggage. Not one to be missed. Combine it with the rest, and you are good to go, wherever you go, Barbour has got your back with all of your luggage needs. As I said before at the start of the video, it makes a perfect gift or a perfect treat for yourself. So get rid of those tatty old bags and replace them with something nice and new for this season.

Things to Take Away

So, there we have it, from small to large, Barbour luggage has got your back. I think they probably have something that suits everybody's needs, and it is just pure, classic Barbour. Timeless style and appeal, that's why we love it, that's why you guys love it as well. We always sell through these crazy amounts at this time of year; they just make perfect gifts, perfect little presents, especially for someone who is a Barbour fan. Especially when it ties in with the jackets and everything, it's just cohesive, and that is what we absolutely love.
