The Barbour x White Mountaineering collaboration is an understated capsule collection for the Fall/Winter 2014 season.
The heritage brand and outdoor Japanese brand came together for the sake of reinterpreting classic pieces, such as a waxed cotton jacket and raglan-sleeve blousons. Each piece is outfitted with a special edition tag featuring both brand names. Some of the more eye-catching pieces in the collection include the Bedale SL and Border SL jackets. Barbour's Yosuke Aizawa offered a brand-new spin on the traditional jackets by altering the materials and design, as well as adding extra pockets.
For those interested, the Barbour x White Mountaineering FW 2014 capsule collection will be available at choice Barbour and White Mountaineering retailers.
