" Ah... the rural escape. Back to the country idyll of knitting your own honey, raising feral children in hard-boiled cat-fur dirndls, and settling down to a life of utter poverty as the buildings \u2014 and your equity \u2014 collapse around you. Well, that&amp;#039;s my dream, anyway. (I&amp;#039;ll take London and a couple weeks vacation for the time being.) Either way, the garment for you is a Barbour jacket, of either the Beaufort or the Bedale variety, and you can buy it new \u2014 even new, it offers the pleasing promise of imminent decline \u2014 or vintage, with eBay finds having even more musty authenticity and dilapidation but at a reduced price. (Here&amp;#039;s the one I just picked up online.)  Or you can get the best of both worlds with the pre-aged but brand-new Barbour International, made specially for J. Crew to celebrate the iconic jacket&amp;#039;s seventy-fifth anniversary. Classic olive, old snaps, Union Jacks \u2014 it&amp;#039;s all there, but it&amp;#039;s here (and in the January issue of Esquire) on display for the first time. Better snap up yours fast when they go on sale for spring, because there will only seventy-five of them on the planet. Fitting, I suppose. Barbour 75th Anniversary limited-edition International jacket ($849), available exclusively through J. Crew.  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
