What's the best Barbour ever made? I think a solid argument could be made for the NATO. Not only is this Barbour at its peak, manufactured in Southshields England in 1992, this was made to a military specification and issued to British Army dispatch riders. It's the International at its very best, made as part of a suit with matching pants, this jacket is cut slightly wider and shorter than it's civi cousin, and that makes the difference. These were made in black, but this example the more desirable olive, and has been cared for incredibly well!
Condition
Used but excellent. Unfortunately the NATO tag has been removed, which is common on these, likely when surplussed. The lining and shell are both in mint condition, very clean and it even smells nice! An excellent example of a very desirable jacket that is sure to appreciate in value.
