Barbour x Paddington Bear

British brand Barbour have very cleverly elected to recruit Paddington Bear in their Christmas 2021 advertising campaign.

The 95 second animated commercial was hand-drawn and features the beloved Paddington Bear character, literally transporting all Barbour-loving English countryside folk right back to their childhoods.

In a world that is as chaotic as ours, people yearn for simpler times and the characters that represent those memories.

That's why ABBA are making a big comeback, old brands are being revived and Barbour have chosen an animated character from the 1950s as their 2021 mascot.
