Barbour Bedale Review I Features and Sizing Info

- Review and sizing info on the Barbour Bedale, which also goes through why I chose this model over other options. By no means a professional fashion model (lol!) but thought my struggles with sizing might be useful for some.
As a long time barbour fan. I have watched many a TH-cam on them. I really enjoyed your review. It was easy and calm to watch. Informative too. So thanks!
That’s so nice thanks
Very helpful. I'm normally a 40-42. Ended up getting a 38 and it's perfect
Thanks that’s really nice of you to say!
size 40 looks great, Bedales are meant to be layered.
Like the change of pace with the Barbour video! I decided to go for one myself earlier this year, went the Ashby though as prefer the slimmer cut. Olive green too, gotta keep it classic. I’m a 38-40 too, but perhaps they don’t do chest sizes in the Ashby because it was a “medium” I ordered, fits me fine. It’s a bit annoying the Ashby isn’t made in England like the others, agreed. Also, I find the zip a bit of a pain to do up. The 40 looks okay on you, the Bedale isn’t meant to be a tailored fit anyway.
Thanks man, that’s nice of you to say. Yes the Ashby is S, M, L rather than chest sizes. Glad you said that about it not looking too bad, but strictly speaking I think a 38 may have been a better fit. If I ever get a Beaufort I’ll make a comparison. Glad you like the change of pace, as I do want to make a broader range of videos.
Thanks for your great video and for all the comments, which helped me a lot to find the right size for my Barbour Bedale.
I have now decided on size 38 for the Barbour Bedale (Thornproof) because I would like to wear several layers (pullover etc.) under the jacket, since it can be very cold here in Austria in the winter. My measurements are 170 cm (5’7’’) 70 kg (11 stone) and my chest is 101 cm (40 inch). I don't want to be stuck in the jacket (too tight ), but still have enough freedom of movement, that fits me perfectly with size 38
Many Greetings from Austria👍
That’s very nice of you to say. Thanks very much for the kind words 👍
Hast du deinen auch vom Kettner gekauft?
@@rdr2v1nce7 Nein, die Barbour Bedale hat Kettner gar nicht, ich habe sie beim The British Shop gekauft.
@@HelmutLuttenberger gut zu wissen.
I've been thinking of getting a Barbour jacket for a while now and it was between the Bedale and the Beaufort. I decided on the Classic Bedale, I have a 40 inch chest and I'm 5'7' 11 stone-ish. I took your advice and sized down to a 38 and the fit is great and can fit an old berghaus fleece under it for the colder days. I love it. Thanks for the vid, going by your accent I think we both live in the same county, lol.
Cool. Yes I like the 40, but I’m slightly bigger than you. In fact I recently tried a 38 in a Beaufort, and that works for me too, though a little snug! Feel free to sub if you haven’t already 😂
@@TimeandTalk I have a Border in a 42" which is massive and makes the Bedale look like a Harrington.
The pockets are correspondingly huge too, ideal for stuffing dead animals in that's your thing, or putting loaves of bread and or shopping like I do.
I can only wear it on the coldest of days as i fear being dehydrated 😁
@@larry4789 yes I like the border, but it is too long for me. Would look like I was wearing my dads coat I think 😂
Bedale or Bedale Classic and why? Great vid!
I went with a 42 at 5.9“ height and about 195 pounds and it fits quite relaxed. I have broad shoulders and huge legs, so the boxier fit of the Bedale looks quite balanced on me. Also, this makes layering very easy and helps with the breathability of the jacket.
It’s a great jacket
Such a useful video. Also, the Bedale suits you Sir. Thank you.
Thanks. That’s very nice of you to say.
I am your height and weight and I got the 38...i tried the 36 in the store and it was short in the sleeves... The 38 could be bigger in the sleeve though but it's fine, not too short.. These jackets don't have very long sleeves anyway. Thanks by the video. Yours doesn't seem too big on you by the way although it's a 40. You look good with it! Thanks for the video!
Thanks for your kind words. That’s very nice of you to say.
I’m torn between Ashby and bedale, tried an Ashby on today size medium fits great, I’m 5,11 just over 12 st, I thought the wax finish wud be better, seems more like a cotton finish, im thinking more bedale now but I can’t find one to try on unfortunately, great video mate, helps slot
Thanks for that. I would go with the bedaleas it’s made in England. I’m pretty much the exact same size as you so would fit similar. Will fit much larger than the Ashby
Awesome video. Just one note, Omar Sy is wearing a Barbour Beaufort 125th Anniversary Icons jacket.
Thanks that’s nice of you to say. Ah ok, thought it was the Ashby. My bad.
For me my Bedale is a throw on jacket with a shirt. My Beaufort is a bigger fit, longer and great for layering in colder weather when out in the English weather.
I would love to get a Beaufort at some point.
One thing to consider is that if you've got long arms but average height and weight, the 38 or 40 arm length will be on the short side.
That’s true
I'm a 44 Regular in a suit/sport coat. Went with 40 in the Bedale.
Yes they do fit quite Large
I own the Ashby and the Bedale, which are two different beasts. The Bedale to me need to be a little bit oversized (I wear 42) about the Ashby (I wear XL). The chest measure on Ashby is 24 in ( armpit to armpit and feels close to the chest) the Bedale is 25,5 in (armpit to armpit). The design and the purpose are entirely different; the Ashby is a casual urban style with a slim cut, and the Bedale it the primary purpose is for riding (shorter sleeves compared with the Ashby) and more room for movement and layer up. In your case, the Bedale is the right fit. Otherwise, the pick is Ashby. I use Bedale when I go for a walk in the countryside, which I love, and when I move around the city, I wear the Ashby (it looks more stylish).
Cool. Yes I think you’re right. At some point I may get a Beaufort in a 38 to try the size down, but I agree.
This is helpful to me. I have Ashby XL and was wondering what size Bedale would be a wise choice. And without having an easy way of trying, I'll just try the 42. Btw. I, too, agree the Bedale in the video is NOT too big. It's not so much a looker jacket as it is functional (the function here not being "being a looker") :).
@berrylict thanks. Yes if you like the vid please sub. Every little helps!
@@berrylict The 42 will be good for you. I'm 42 Bedale and have room to layer and the Ashby is great in XL with lighter or no layering.
@@Ikari777 Great. Thank you! By the way, you wouldn't happen to have Beaufort as well...?
The G9 jacket looks great on you. The Bedale looks too short in length in the body but probably better for riding. But if your not a horse or motorcycle guy, the choice would be a matter of style rather than function. I think the Beaufort is the more versatile of the 2 and would look better on you and the only other consideration is if you ever intend to wear a tailored jacket underneath or not. Both are great jackets but the Beaufort would have been my 1st choice.
I might buy a Beaufort at some point in 38. Thanks for the kind words.
After more than a year now, how do you feel in the jacket? did you wear in it and has a better fit now? or do you still think that 38 would have been a better choice? I have the same measurements as you and feel that did the same mistake. The 40 feels huge on me.
To be honest, I like the size. For the Barbour, I kind of like the baggier look, and it makes layering really easy. I tried a 38 on, and it was fitted, almost too fitted. However, what I would probably do is buy a 38 in a different model, and have both. I think sizing is difficult though if you are choosing between 2, and a lot of the time is about personal preference and how you generally wear your clothes.
I'm also 5"11 and weight approx 12 stone. Considering I intend to use the jacket with winter clothing and the Barbour teddy lining, do you think I should go for 40? TIA
I think tbh you could prob get away with 40 or 38 but the 40 would leave more room for layering
@@TimeandTalk thanks a lot for the advice and quick response!
What are the modern Bedales like compared to the Ashby, size wise ??
My 1988 Bedale is 42" but a bit big as I never wear more than a tshirt underneath.
I have a Ashby in an M and an Ashby lightweight in a L which are a better fit.
Yes I would imagine that a 42 would be too big if you wear a medium Ashby. I think an Ashby medium would fit me like a 38. That is what the Beaufort in 38 fit like if I remember correctly.
I am wearing a 42 in a Baracuta G9 (UK made) and a 36 in a classic bedale. My measurements are 186 cm (6’1’’) and 75 kg (11,8 stone). My chest is 104 com (3’5’’) and it fits with a palm width between my chest and the inner side. In the waist range, there is a bit more „room“ :-) The Baracuta is so nice and it fits yery well in 40, you should try a 36 in the Bedale!
Thanks! Think the 36 would be too small for me. Beer gut and all 😂
@@TimeandTalk 😂😂 Ok, that is a good point! I will leave a subspriction, because I am also a watch guy!
@@Martin23W09 thanks man!
I am wondering if the bidale en green color is available somewhere????
should be. The colour I have is olive.
I am 5’8’ and about 18 stone (120kg), what size should i get for Beaufort Classic ?
It’s difficult to say unless you try it on, but could use your blazer size. E.g. I wear a 40 in both.
How has the jacket held up? Would love a follow up. Thanks
Well! Yeah could do one! Good idea for a vid 😂
Very useful, thanks!
Nice of you to say. Thanks!
I’m about 5’10-5’11 190 pounds broad build. You think the Beaufort would be too long since I would be a bigger size in comparison to most 5’10ish men? Or maybe the extra length will help lengthen my wide frame haha. Perhaps I just get the bedale in my correct size and it’ll fit like a Beaufort
From what I can tell the Beaufort is not much longer than the bedale. Do you mean the border?
Just checked. Yes it is about 3 inches longer across the sizes. But if you’re sizing up you shouldn’t worry about that altering the length as the length only changes by 1 inch across the whole range of sizes. That probably why for an extremely tall person a border may end up fitting like a bedale.
If you want the option of wearing over a tailored jacket go for the Beaufort. It will cover the tail of your tailored jacket and No it won’t look too long. I’m 5’6” and it just covers the rear end. Perfect for tailored jackets and no fear of wet rear if caught in the rain.
@@pattgsm did you go with your normal suit size? I was thinking about going down from a 44 to a 42
Is not an Ashby, it’s a 125th special edition (zippers on the sides)
Rule of thumb .
When buying a loose jacket down 1 size. buying a slim fit up 1 or may be 2 sizes .
Yes. Guess it depends how you want it to fit though.
Very useful. Thank you.
No problem! Sub if you enjoyed 😂
Heeelp i want so bad the bedale but can’t sort the sizing:
-height 178cm
-weight 80 cm
-chest 107cm
I was looking To buy it 2 hand but seems like every barbour has its
Own mesures.
So far I was thinking of a c42 or c44 size
(The only jacket I cloud try on was the Ashby in L and it was perfect)
I would guess 42 but I would try on, as you never know
So should you of gone with a 38? Or do you like the 40. You kind of said both haha
I think it depends on how you want it to fit. Looser fit go for 40, 38 for tighter fit. I think I would like both, but would get a Beaufort in the 38. I think for some people 40 would be too baggy though, but I like it.
Im 6.7 wich size should i get?
Dépends on your weight, build, etc.
I got the 14 my size..it’s massive I’m swapping it for the 12 I got it in j Lewis liverpool so there shouldn’t be a problem I hope😂
Yea they are quite big.
Just get the jacket tailored in the arms and chest. That’s what I did and now it have an Ashby fit in a size 40!
Cool. Think I might also get a 38 in a Beaufort, as I think that fits like an Ashby for me in that size.
@@TimeandTalk the only problem is the sleeve length. Going from a 40 to a 38, the sleeves get crazy curtailed.
@@caseyzaft6734 yes tbh I was gonna say that in my comment. The sleeves were a little short. 😂
no surprise omar wears barbour and fred perry. in the books lupin is a smart gentleman inspired by anglophilia. secondly, the success of peaky blinders makes the british classic style very popular in france
Yes that’s true, but was surprised by the choices at the time.
i want one with the old lining
What do you mean?
Bedale is supposed to be one size down from true for. Even sizing down I can still easily layer one good mid layer like a knit sweater.
Yes they are big sizes, but fit is subjective. Some people like more fitted, some less so
actually the c40 is 4 inches larger at chest than c38, not 2 inches. that only happens between c38 and c40.
Interesting!
How tall are you?
5 ft 11
I am 180cm, 72 kg, what size shall I pick for bedale
I’m not sure, but I’m 13stone and 5 ft 11 and I got 40. It sounds like you are smaller than me but it would be better to try on.
@@TimeandTalk thanks, got 38, it is still oversized a bit
@@tingliu4982 i think they wear better a little oversized personally. .
@@tingliu4982 btw sub if you like the vid 😂
@@TimeandTalkI went to Try it on. was convinced by thé sales lady to buy 38. She said 36 is mostly purchased by lady； also tried beafourt, 36 and 38. Both modèles intend to havé relaxed fit as she says. Bélieve that you Made right choice on size
Hi! 😊 I’m 12 stone and 5’8”, which size do you think? The jacket looks good on you
It’s difficult to say but perhaps a 38. You would need to try on though.
You need to go for bigger because you would be wearing warm layers underneath....not just a t-shirt
Ciano Farmer
That is not oversized in any way
I wish you had focused on the confusing zippers a bit - I can't figure them out to save my life!
In what way?
That’s not an Ashby.
I am absolutely shitting my self when my Bedale comes... I think I have the wrong size!
If you’re using this vid as a guide, mine is quite loose on me.
If it is too tight or loose at least I can return it and they will let you swap it for another size @@TimeandTalk
zzzzzzzzzzz
Nice. Thanks for the constructive comment.
Hi, my dad gave me as a present a bedale. Im a 1.83 100kg guy and the xxl fits me well in the chest and the upper back but itsa little long and the sleeves are way too long.... they end right in the middle of my hand... in your opinion thats toooo long?
Yes sounds like it. Not a biggie though. If you like it, you wear it.
@@TimeandTalk thanks!
