Royal-approved heritage brands, Sorel and Barbour, have joined forces for a collaboration the Princess of Wales would no doubt applaud.

The two icons of weather-proof style have launched a unisex capsule collection, featuring three pairs of boots and a quilted jacket, celebrating their shared legacy of craftsmanship and adventure.

Uniting more than 180 years of combined expertise, the range blends Sorel’s Canadian-born performance and durability with Barbour’s timeless British style.

The result? A wardrobe that moves effortlessly between countryside rambles and city weekends.

Unsurprisingly, the partnership has instant royal appeal. Both Catherine, Princess of Wales, and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, are longtime admirers of the labels.

So far, Kate has worn two pairs of Sorel’s signature snow boots and at least five Barbour jackets, reaching for a favourite style just last month. 

Meghan has also championed both brands, sporting Sorel boots at the Invictus Games and stepping out in four Barbour jackets to date.

Fans of Kate’s trusted Caribou boots will be thrilled – the iconic style receives a refined update, boasting a corduroy collar, tartan detailing and advanced Gore-Tex waterproofing.

Scroll on for a closer look at the full collection.

Unisex Sorel x Barbour Callsign Horizon™ Low GTX Sneakers

An earthy autumn palette is elevated by rich rust accents in Sorel’s reimagined Callsign Horizon trainers.

Fully waterproof, they’re the perfect companion for unpredictable seasonal weather.

The chunky yet lightweight silhouette houses a removable moulded Ortholite™ footbed, lined with Barbour’s signature tartan for a subtle heritage nod.

Equally functional and fashion-forward, they make a confident statement – ideal for relaxed weekend dressing.

Unisex Sorel x Barbour Daystorm Horizon™ GTX Boots 

Engineered for downpours, the Daystorm Horizon boots are crafted from full-grain leather, set on a chunky outsole designed to grip even the slickest surfaces.

Inside, a removable moulded Ortholite™ footbed is topped with a Barbour textile layer, while the brand’s iconic tartan also appears on the tongue. Waterproofed from every angle, they are built for the harshest elements.

Pair the sleek, structured design with modern athleisure or soften with a floaty dress – they adapt effortlessly to any wardrobe.

Unisex Sorel x Barbour Caribou Horizon™ GTX Winter Boots

First worn by Princess Kate in 2016, the coveted Caribou Horizon boots have since earned celebrity-status cult appeal.

This season, the iconic silhouette returns with an elevated twist – a tactile blend of corduroy and leather offering a modern take while remaining fully waterproof.

True to form, these boots feature a removable Ortholite™ footbed and a moulded outsole engineered to withstand heavy snowfall. 

Heritage tartan detailing unites the colour palette, honouring the design’s roots.

Unisex Sorel x Barbour Transport Wax Puffer Jacket 

Completing the capsule is a new interpretation of the legendary Barbour Transport Jacket.

The Transport Down Wax Puffer fuses Barbour’s waxed-cotton heritage with Sorel’s protection-first ethos, featuring a cosy 80/20 down fill and fully waterproof exterior.

A plush corduroy collar and co-branded touches elevate the timeless khaki finish, offering practicality with classic appeal.
