(2023)
In addition to its classic waxed jackets, Barbour also produces quilted jackets, waterproof outerwear, knitwear, shirts, trousers, footwear, and accessories such as hats, scarves, and bags.

Brand Truth


This collaboration will introduce a new Lego collection inspired by Barbour’s outdoor adventure ethos.
Barbour has previously partnered with other brands for their garments, whilst Lego has partnered with brands such as Adidas to create shoes from their Lego bricks. (adidas LEGO® collection | adidas UK, 2021)
This collection will encompass Barbour’s love for outdoor exploration and the outside world with Lego’s reputation among children, for both brands to reach a broader audience.
The main themes of this collaboration are the love for the outdoors, adventure and encouraging children to play outside.
Audience Truth
Outdoor adventure play is gaining popularity among today’s children, driven by a desire for hands-on exploration and imaginative experiences (Longford County, no date). Fueled by a need to disconnect from screens and reconnect with nature, kids are seeking toys that encourage active play and spark their creativity. The LEGO x Barbour Building Brighter Futures Toy Set is tailor-made for this audience, offering a blend of rugged durability and limitless imagination.
Much like Gen Z’s penchant for transforming their bedrooms into personal sanctuaries, outdoor play spaces are becoming vital havens for young minds. In the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, children are craving safe outlets for adventure and excitement, and the backyard has become their canvas for exploration (Reilly and Tremblay, 2021). This collaboration between LEGO and Barbour taps into this trend, providing children with the tools they need to create their own outdoor sanctuaries and embark on thrilling adventures.
As parents seek ways to encourage their children to engage with the natural world (Oliver et al., 2022), the LEGO x Barbour Outdoor Toy Kids Adventure Set offers a solution that satisfies both kids’ desires for excitement and parents’ concerns for safety and durability. Just as teens and young adults seek refuge in their bedrooms, children are finding solace and inspiration in the great outdoors. With this set, they can build, explore, and imagine to their heart’s content, creating their own escapist sanctuary in the backyard.

Cultural Truth



Image 31-33
This collaborative outdoor toy adventure set from LEGO and Barbour taps into a cultural truth that resonates deeply with children today: the longing for real-world exploration and imaginative play in an increasingly digital age.
In a world where screens dominate much of children’s leisure time, there’s a growing cultural movement towards reconnecting with nature and engaging in active, hands-on play. Parents and caregivers are seeking out toys and activities that encourage outdoor exploration, creativity, and physical activity (Natural England, 2022). This LEGO x Barbour adventure set meets this demand head-on, offering children the opportunity to build, imagine, and embark on exciting outdoor adventures.
Moreover, there’s a cultural shift towards valuing quality time spent outdoors, whether it’s in the backyard, at the park, or on a hiking trail. This adventure set aligns perfectly with this cultural shift, providing children with the tools they need to immerse themselves in imaginative outdoor play, fostering a deeper connection with the natural world and promoting a healthy, active lifestyle (Tebbs, 2022).
In essence, the LEGO x Barbour outdoor toy adventure set reflects a cultural truth: children crave real-world experiences and outdoor adventures that spark their imagination, creativity, and sense of wonder.
