SOREL and Barbour both know a thing or two about handling bad weather, and together, the Canadian and British brands have dropped a limited-edition collaborative collection right in time for the wet season.
Sorel x Barbour
At the core, there are three footwear styles: the Callsign Horizon Low GTX, which uses GORE-TEX waterproofing, a lightweight midsole, and Vibram grip outsole wrapped in Barbour’s Classic Tartan.
Then there’s the Daystorm Horizon GTX that comes in full-grain, waterproof leather with a tartan tongue and solid traction underfoot. Lastly, the Caribou Horizon GTX reworks a SOREL classic with GORE-TEX protection and a corduroy collar that nods to Barbour’s heritage.

To keep warm up top, the brands have brought out the contemporary Transport Down Wax Puffer, a new take on Barbour’s beloved Transport Jacket. Here, waxed cotton, down fill, and a corduroy collar give it the right balance of function and form, and is built to stand up to the harshest of weather conditions while looking food.
