So, if you’re looking to upgrade your wardrobe for the upcoming season, here are just five fashion brands to add to your collection.
1. Barbour
Founded in 1894, Barbour is a leading name in British outdoor fashion. Best known for their waxed jackets, quilted outerwear and country style, you’ll be able to seamlessly add fashion to your outdoor excursions.
From walking the dog to visiting stables, you’ll be able to blend into country life, all while keeping warm and dry.
And, in order to prolong the life of your Barbour jacket, the brand also offers a rewaxing and repair service to help it maintain its strength against the elements.
2. The North Face
Iconic for both countryside hiking and urban living, The North Face has become one of the most recognised names in outdoor fashion.
Known for their wide range of puffer jackets and fleeces, they can help you build a winter wardrobe for every climate.
And with their waterproofs that have removable fleece linings, you can have one coat to serve multiple purposes.
3. Patagonia
Patagonia prides itself on its commitment to sustainability and activism. Their commitment to protecting the planet is at the forefront of their business decisions, so when you invest in their outdoor clothing not only will you look good, but you can feel good too!
They stock a wide range of clothing suited to outdoor activities including hiking, surfing, fishing, and mountain biking, making them the ideal brand for your outdoor wardrobe.

4. Helly Hansen
Norwegian brand, Helly Hansen, has become a trusted name by winter sports professionals all over the world. From sailing to skiing, these athletes put their trust in the Helly Hansen brand to keep them warm.
Their clothes are best suited to cold and wet environments, so if you live in a colder climate, or choose to embark on frequent winter holidays that allow you to take part in snow sports, then this could be the perfect brand to add to your wardrobe.
5. Canada Goose
Canada Goose is one of the world’s most recognisable luxury outdoor brands. Their popular Expedition Parker was originally designed for scientists in Antarctica’s McMurdo Station, but has become a sought after item for everyday use for urban residents of cities such as Toronto and New York who endure cold winter months.
While originally made with coyote fur, since 2022 this has been phased out in favour of more ethical and sustainable materials.
