EXCLUSIVE: Maison Kitsuné x Barbour Is a Lesson in Parisian-Chic Utility
We love seeing unexpected collaborations and the debut partnership between Maison Kitsuné x Barbour falls neatly into this spectrum.
Known for its irreverent and playful spirit, Maison Kitsuné imbues its French-Japanese perspective into a range of Barbour classics for a fresh take on utilitarian essentials.
The collection features a full range of outerwear, clothing, and accessories brought to life in Parisian streets through a cheeky campaign highlighting each piece’s versatility. Of course, it wouldn’t be a proper collab without the inclusion of Barbour’s iconic outerwear which the collection delivers.
Highlights include one of Barbour's most popular styles, the Kitsuné x Barbour Beaufort Patchwork Waxed Jacket, crafted from weather-resistant sylkoil waxed cotton and reimagined in a color-blocked design that’s a testament to understated British dressing.
The Kitsuné x Barbour Kenning Quilted Jacket is the ultimate in-between layer for brisk fall days when a puffer might be overkill. Featuring a bright corduroy collar and tartan lining, the iconic fox logo and relaxed fit bring it all together with room to spare for extra layering.
Speaking of versatility, several reversible options offer the best of both worlds — like the Kitsuné x Barbour Military Reversible Waterproof Jacket. On one side is a classic wax exterior while the other is a bold, all-over Barbour tartan print for days when added visibility is crucial.
Rounding out the collection are a reversible tote and a reversible bucket hat, both featuring dry wax fabric on one side and Barbour’s classic tartan print on the other.
Get acquainted with the collection above before it drops on October 4 at maisonkitsune.com.
