This is the best source of Barbour information on the internet! Thank you for all the fantastic Barbour content.

Great video but I will expound a little on the flap on the back of the Bedale. The Bedale was designed for equestrian use and the flap was put in so the jacket would not bunch up when the rider was sitting in the saddle. The flap allows the jacket to lie over the top of the back of the saddle when the rider is riding. The gusseted sleeves are another feature designed for equestrian use. The gussets prevent wind from blowing up the sleeve when the rider is riding at speed. The nylon interior lining is designed to keep water from wicking up inside the jacket.

The Beaufort was designed as a hunting jacket that is why it has the game pouch on the rear and the sleeves aren't gusseted because that would interfere with swinging a shotgun. The longer length of the Beaufort is to protect from briars and to keep the upper thighs warmer.

You'll always be my go-to Barbour reviewer.
I've had to sell my 3-year Bedale since I've outgrown it.
Miss it dearly; will probably pick up another next year. Cheers!

Nice, I picked up this Jacket on Sale over seas for $199, Then I was able to purchase the vest and hood for it, for those colder rainy days. I got everything at sale prices, so I think, Jacket, vest and hood all together we're under $300 including Tax.

It's a great classic looking jacket and love that oversized corduroy Collar with the storm strap on it. I'm very happy with mine.


Thanks for sharing 👍

Thanks for this review. I just received this type of Barbour jacket as a gift from my grandfather so I came here to learn a bit about it. Great video! 👍

Surely a Barbour jacket is for life. With age comes experiences and stories. My only regret is owning a Barbour for the first time in my late 40's.

[freemind]

Now u come with nice camera and nice style editing.

[HybridSquirrel]

I'm between 38 and 40 (39), but normally lean towards a 40. Would you recommend that based on your experience? I'm 5'7, 180lbs

So help me out here. I really want a Barbour jacket I’m just not sure which one to get. I want a do-all jacket that could do rainy spring days to cold windy fall days to even snowy winter days and I want it to be casual as well as be useful for hunting and even to wear over a suit or business attire and I feel like barbours have that versatility. I’m about 5’9” at around 170-175 pounds with a 42” chest. Should I get a Bedale, or a Beaufort? And olive color? Or brown?

[joserrasanchezagaton]

Hello Olaf, I’m planning on buying a bedale, my question. I’m 6” 205 pounds and usually wear 42-44 jackets (depending on the brand) my chest actually measures exactly 43 inches. Should I get a 42 or a 40? I tried on a 44 and it was too big

[stussy]

I'm 5 8" tall and 170 lbs, do u think that c38 would be good for me?

[SneakyCorn]

Hello, i was looking to get one of these classic Bedale jackets but i cannot visit a store in person. I was wondering about sizing, i am 5' 10" and about 200 lbs, approximately a 46" chest. I was looking at either the 42 or 44 potentially but any insight you would have would be appreciated. You seem to be the expert on barbour jackets. Thanks!

There's a longer version of the Bedale: the Bedale Trenchcoat.

[ΠαναγιώτηςΠαπαδόπουλος-ξη]

How does it fit at your shoulders and chest ?

[karimlamatt]

Ok you convinse me than😂 i'll buy the bedal one thx😊

[sujaybhat]

I am struggling to remove the wax smell(no almost a stench) out a new Barbour Bedale jacket stored in a airtight zip lock bag for almost a year! Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks much.

What do you think of the Tinford quilted

[MikeJones-bfoc]

Very good explanation, but you rarely address the most controversial and well known issue with these jackets: sleeve length. Many do not like the short sleeves and not sure up-sizing is the answer.
