C.P company and Barbour know how to make a jacket and when the duo paired up last year, a perfect matrimony of rugged British style imbued with C.P’s Italian panache had football and streetwear heads alike queuing round the block for a taste of the waxed, big pocketed rigs.

This latest outing focuses on the brands’ joint search for constant innovation through tradition, resulting in homages to two models from C.P and Barbours respective archives - the Creel and Explorer Waxed jackets.
The Creel reworks the best parts of Barbour’s Bedale and C.P’s La Mille jackets into a sole utilitarian example that makes the most of Barbour’s 8oz waxed cotton and traditional corduroy collars, with a hint of C.P flash on the branded watch window and standout red Barbour box logo.

It wouldn’t be a C.P jacket without the inclusion of the brand’s signature goggles - which can be found on the detachable hood.
Again using earthy tones, the archival Explorer parka includes enlarged pockets, more of the same branding notes and goggles worked into the full length zip design intended to cover ones entire face.
