In 1980, Barbour produced its first short, lightweight jacket, the Bedale. The Bedale was originally designed for horseback riding and is worn by many Britons, from royalty to pop icons. <\/p>\n
Dame Margaret Barbour designed the Bedale with equestrian activities in mind\u2014featuring a shorter length, a relaxed fit, ventilation openings at the back, and the essential nylon \u201cdrip-strip\u201d on the inside that prevents moisture from horses from seeping into the jacket. Made from medium-weight 6-ounce waxed cotton and fully customizable with optional zip-in thermal liners and hoods, the Bedale is a brilliant jacket for year-round use. <\/p>\n
All the classic elements of a Barbour jacket are present, including a brass two-way zipper and a \u201cStormfly\u201d front with snap buttons, two large gusseted pockets, and two moleskin-lined handwarmer pockets, and the traditional corduroy collar with snap buttons for a hidden throat flap.
\nThe Bedale is now a classic, and its practical, simple style remains popular with people of all ages.<\/p>\n
The Bedale’s popularity has led to a slimmer version for women\u2014the Beadnell, named after a small fishing village in Northumberland.<\/p>\n
