The Barbour x Tuckernuck Collection launched Thursday, September 4, 2025, online and in the Washington, DC, and New York City Madison Avenue stores. Barbour’s Amanda Ernest, Senior Key Account Manager, and Tuckernuck’s Addison Smith, Assistant Buyer, and Julia Thistle, Associate Buyer, met at the Tuckernuck Georgetown location to celebrate.
“Tuckernuck’s Georgetown store previewed the collection early, over Labor Day weekend, giving their DC customers early access to shop it exclusively,” says Ernest. It also generated buzz for the official September 4 launch date. “It was my pleasure to stop in the store a couple days before the launch to share the excitement and thank the team for their support and partnership with the Barbour brand,” Ernest adds.
The Barbour x Tuckernuck Collection consists of 11 pieces of women’s outerwear and accessories, including two wax jackets, four quilted jackets, two quilted vests, one wax baseball cap, one umbrella, and one showerproof poncho. “It consists of 11 styles featuring Tuckernuck’s own baroque floral print tied in with iconic, reimagined Barbour silhouettes,” says Ernest. “Barbour was one of the first brands Tuckernuck carried when I met them at market 10 years ago. We have always dreamed of bringing our brands together in an exclusive and collaborative collection, so this launch is special to the founders of Tuckernuck and to Barbour because of our history together.”
Last summer, Ernest traveled with the Tuckernuck co-founders and their director of buying to Barbour’s South Shields UK headquarters. “We toured the Barbour factory and archives, met with Barbour’s head of womenswear design, and curated this exclusive collaboration,” adds Ernest.
One of her favorite pieces in the collection is the Beverly Wax Jacket. “It’s truly a one-of-a-kind style as it features the exclusive floral print on the outside of a cropped wax jacket – a best-selling Barbour silhouette,” Ernest says. It’s a unique application of the floral print and is complemented by Barbour’s iconic tartan lining. Another of her favorites is the Paisley Liner, which is available in two colors and is fully reversible to show off the floral print in a playful and versatile way.
