All the clubs that matter - golf, pony and Conservative. The natural plumage of the Greater British Gammon.
In 1980, Barbour produced their first short, lightweight jacket, the Bedale. Originally designed for riding, the Bedale is favoured by many Britons, from royalty to pop icons. Dame Margaret Barbour designed the Bedale with equestrian practicalities in mind.

Next @kl you'll be moaning about them coming round 'ere with their GTI's and their funny accents....What @danstuff said. They're cross-class/club membership jackets.

At £50 in the classifieds, a decent Bedale is a great jacket to buy
