kafka now has them back up again in all sizes (they seem to get a lot of these for preorder)
30% discount if you are outside EU (20% VAT and 10% use their new customer discount code)
This is Kafka's third pre order on these items from my recollection. They appear to have been blessed with what seems a virtual endless supply when other retailers have none. My local Barbour retailer cant even get a single piece! So I wonder why these guys are so fortunate in forward orders?
Yeah I'm pretty suspicious wether they will fulfil all these preorders, they are taking 100% up front also. I hope they don't refund people's money in Feb and screw people about

+1 Agreed. I just find the whole pre order repeat scenario somewhat concerning. 100% payment in full in advance, lets just hope the cynic in me doesnt just think we are just short term cash flowing these firms onlu to get our money back in February.
I sent them several emails as my shipping country is missing and they have not bothered to reply despite their website specifically stating "contact us if shipping country not listed"

I bought this at the weekend at Braintree Freeport (in Essex) at the Barbour outlet, as it looks very similar to the X To Ki To. I don't know much about Barbour, can anyone help identify the model, please?
Btw they had one other left - size XXL.
Cannot understand after trying my new jacket (ToKiTo) what all the fuzz is about? Ita ill fitted - with crazu tight shoulders and a baggy body. If the designerhad taken some learing from the Napoli tailors maybe he could have learned something about fit and geometry. Im athletic build with a narrow waist, 6"1 chest size 40-41 and waist 32. Its always sizing down and look like a hipster or size up and loose all fit. Most men need room in shoulders without beeing roomy and a more shaped waist and chest piece to make a flattering drape - but this item is just one overprized fashion brand that has been over advertized in all blogs and I have fallen for it! Forgot to mention the arms also - too long. What is it about the long arms on outwear?? Is that an American phenomen? I love the history the heritage of Barbour but their clothing just has poor fit. Sorry to conclude once again.

Arms are too long on the jacket? Maybe your arms are just short for your body ) Why would a company produce off the rack sizes with short arms? You limit your customer potential by doing that. Offer a slightly longer sleeve that can be shortened by your company if need be. Also, perhaps you have your Barbour "history and heritage" incorrect. It's not an American company so the sleeve sizing "phenomenon" has nothing to do with that. The fit is all relative to the wearer. Some prefer the cuff end at their wrist, while others rather have it extend closer to their first thumb knuckle.
Another thing that makes it hard to fit things "perfectly" is that for photo shoots in magazines and movies there will be someone whose sole purpose in life is to make that article of clothing fit the wearer. Along with that, the downside to being tall and lanky with broad shoulders (like myself) is that it can be easy to be between sizes. We can either pick the smaller size and potentially look like Steve Urkel or get the larger size and deal with it, or simply spend the extra $50 or so to get it tailored. After all, what's another 50 when you've already dropped the money for the Barbour jacket? -{
I noticed that in a lot of ebay adverts and other for sale postings for the jacket, that there have been 2 different pit to pit measurements for the Medium. One 20.5" and 21.5
At fist I thought the sellers must have mixed up, but the labels were clear posted as being M
Anyone have any thoughts on this... OR has anyone bought Mediums with a pit to pit measurement greater than the Barbour listed 20.5" ?
Any US people able to enlighten me on import costs for this jacket from UK to US
I guess many have done this
None at all from Goodstead.
Thats nice to know, ive preorded a size down (mine could do with loosing a few inches here and there) and have had to ship it to BONVU in USA as the numptys in UK wont ship to me
Phillip Browne menswear just sent out an email saying they have more sizes available for pre-order. If you order and they can't fulfill it they will refund your money.
Thank you for expressing an interest in the Barbour To Ki To Beacon Heritage Sports Jacket which features in the new James Bond film, Skyfall, worn by Daniel Craig.
The response to this piece has been phenomenal and we sold all our stock arranged for delivery in January at pre-order. The last lot of sizes we acquired sold out in under half an hour!
It's confirmed! We are pleased to announce that Barbour have confirmed today that we will be able to produce a few more sizes for us.
These are now available to PRE-order via our website on a first-come-first-served basis. Goods will be released when the stock arrives mid to late February, (Subject to delivery - if orders cannot be fulfilled, a full refund will be issued)
With such demand it is likely that some of you might miss out again so please respond early to avoid disappointment.

It really depends on how the item is shipped. If it comes through Royal Post (which gets handed off to USPS), you won't have any customs/import fees. If it ships via DHL, you will have to pay fees. My LVC jacket from Pegg & Sons was shipped via DHL and I was charged about $50 in customs.

That was on the LVC pricetag which is a bit more than the Barbour too. I would expect custom fees on the Barbour to be about $35. Not bad at all considering how much cheaper they are to purchase from the UK.
