Burberry Men's clothing

BURBERRY MENSWEAR

The epitome of British cool. The quintessential English luxury. Burberry has earned its stripes by continuing to evolve with the times whilst maintaining their unmistakable, timeless appeal and polished aesthetic.

Transforming something as local as the British aesthetic into a global phenomenon is not just a thing of luck. It takes courage, research, development and a willingness to remain rooted while betting on new ways of doing things. And that is exactly what Burberry menswear has done. The new generations continue to carry a legacy that began over 100 years ago.

Its classic tartan design, created in its day from the classic Scottish tartan, was, at the time, even an aesthetic reference of the London punk movement. Its camel color palette in combination with blacks, reds, whites and other colors of the season have made for an unmistakable aesthetic that is emulated worldwide.

Although its coolness is not undone, nor disheveled. The Burberry look is one that is polished, smooth, clean, pristine…

Icons of Burberry menswear

The legendary Burberry trench or gabardine, with a technical legacy beyond trends, is the most famous garment of the firm.

Their trench coats have been made in Castleford, Yorkshire, for over 50 years. The brand's heritage garments are made from gabardine, a revolutionary fabric that Thomas Burberry invented in 1879. It's a polished and practical material, a fantastic water-resistant cotton that remains at the heart of Burberry. Before this fabric was invented, those used to protect against the rain were waxed, rigid and very heavy.

The trench coat is an evolution of the Tielocken coat, patented by Thomas Burberry in 1912. It is a design born to protect the military during the First World War. It requires to a tailor more than a year to learn how to do it, only the collar of a Burberry trench coat has more than 180 stitches and the technique for its construction has not changed over the years, that is why it has been manufactured for so many years always in the same place and they are labeled as 'Heritage' garments..

Burberry bags, Burberry accessories such as Burberry caps, Burberry hats, Burberry scarfs… The Burberry universe is filled with cultural icons that populate the best wardrobes in the world.

The recognizable touches and visual language of the brand, namely through the coloring of their iconic Vintage Check print, and the extremely high quality materials have become a staple for the modern man.
