New Barbour Shadow Tartan: Inspired by the Land
Barbour’s tartans are more than the distinctive checked patterns we all know. Rooted in the heritage of the family business, each design carries a sense of history, belonging and connection to the British countryside. In the second instalment of our blogs looking at Barbour’s Re-Imagined Tartan series, we focus on Shadow Tartan. Shadow brings a refined new interpretation of Barbour’s iconic Classic Tartan.
SHADOW TARTAN
Staying true to the original Barbour sett, Shadow Tartan takes the familiar colours of the countryside and reworks them in a more muted, pared-back palette. Rich shades of Olive and Rustic are complemented by Fig, Cranberry Red and Tan, creating a deeper, more understated look inspired by the changing Scottish landscape.
Designed for the colder months ahead, this modern take on the much-loved Classic pattern combines Barbour’s enduring heritage with a fresh sense of refinement. Discover knitwear, shirts, and core Barbour jackets reimagined in this new seasonal shade.
Product Spotlight: The Dunoon Shirt
The Barbour Dunoon Shirt is a long-standing favourite. Named after the coastal town of Dunoon on the Cowal Peninsula in Argyll and Bute, it truly is inspired by the landscape. A classic Barbour style, the shirt continues to be reimagined through fresh colours and patterns while retaining the timeless character that makes it a wardrobe staple.
For the latest collection, the Dunoon Shirt is available in both new tartan colourways. Both designs put a fresh spin on a familiar Barbour silhouette, showing how a core shirt can evolve while staying true to its heritage.
As the countryside settles into deeper shades, the landscape becomes a palette of olive fields, woodland tones and flashes of rich autumn colour. Shadow Tartan captures that shift, bringing the character of the Scottish countryside into considered layers and timeless Barbour styles. From heritage checks to refreshed silhouettes, it is a reminder that the most enduring designs often take their cue from the world around them. Let the landscape set the tone.
