In 1894, John Barbour founded J. Barbour & Sons Ltd, a British luxury and lifestyle brand. The company was purposely created for marketing and manufacturing waxed cotton outwear, footwear, clothing and accessories for women, men and children, under the Barbour international brands.

Barbour still produces clothing and footwear brands designed for full lifestyle closets. Besides footwear, coats and jacket, Barbour manufacture dresses, shirts, accessories and knitwear.
