Before Burberry became ubiquitous, there was Thomas Burberry: the heritage label reserved for pieces that earned their place in the archive.
The Designer's Vision
2000s. The "Thomas Burberry" label represents the house's most collectible era, a time when Burberry reserved this signature for pieces that honoured founder Thomas Burberry's 1856 legacy. This corduroy jacket in military-inspired olive carries the DNA of British field wear, reinterpreted through Burberry's lens of craft over trend, heritage over hype. For the Cairo collector, this is not simply outerwear, but an entry point into Burberry's most sought-after archive pieces, defined by bold design, British craftsmanship, investment-grade fashion.
