Good news. My Barbour Cowen Commando Heritage arrived today, and I can unequivocally state that it is shit.
When I purchased it, in my wine addled state, I envisaged a loose hanging jacket with plenty of storage space suitable for the great outdoors. Instead it is a poncy slim cut 'man-about-town' item that can barely hold a couple of condoms and a Silva compass.
Nonetheless, I shall give it some time to see how it goes. On the plus side it is only the cotton exterior with a light lining, so okay for rainy season in Africa at a push, but the tight cut of the jacket would probably negate that.
My advice would be to buy the jacket take one of the condoms out of the tiny pockets and wear that instead. And also I would advise not buying stuff on fleabay after a few snifters!
