I've owned a Barbour jacket for nearly 10 years now, dating back to my #menswear raw denim Red Wing Iron Ranger days, but unfortunately I had developed an allergic reaction to it. I guess I was just scared of looking like a finance guy or something. My opinion changed a few months ago when Blake and I were talking, in the rain, about how they can actually be pretty cool depending on how worn it is and how it's worn. I've since breathed new life into my jacket by rewaxing it myself (for the first time ever) so now it’s a darker color and the wax has revealed a lovely patina.

Conditional rec because I don’t have one but I want one. They come in a variety of lengths. They all look sik. Waxed cotton, so weather proof to a point. Tartan checked lining is nice. Royalty approved (repped by Windsors).

I mean especially if you’re moving to the UK, this is a great offering. As long as you don’t mind getting them waxed every year or so, it’ll outlive you and anything you put it through.
Their offerings are expansive and the differences are often minor between each model so I’ve linked their guide explaining all their jackets. I am partial to the Beaufort, long and classic.

They look good on 95% of the people who wear them. Timeless. The only time they don’t look good (no hate just not my vibe) is with a Patagonia vest underneath or golden gooses on your feet

tomorrow PI.FYI launches to the public
this project is the result of thousands of hours spent coding everything from scratch after I got laid off six months ago
no thiel-bucks or weirdo outsider money, just a pure desire to make something fun and true to Perfectly Imperfect’s day one goal of helping people find new things from real human beings, not algorithms or AI
a pure labor of love that I’ve been quietly plotting for two years and it’s completely self-funded from my (rapidly) dwindling savings account
so thank you for coming along for this weird ride 🫶 let's see where it goes
