With Barbour jackets finding their way onto every Hoxtonite in sight, finding a waxed cotton jacket that doesn't look misplaced in the city has become a tough task. Our main issue wasn't that it looked bad per se, it just didn't feel right wearing a pristine Barbour in the city.
Updating a classic, Lou Dalton's jacket is a refreshing shade of burgundy, separating the wearer from the swathes of navy, grey and military greens that menswear is so fond of this season. On top of this, it's also got the added bonus of being Made in England and costs a respectable, reasonable £275 to boot.
