아흔네 번째 매거진 입니다. 계절이 바뀔 무렵 옷장을 정리하다 보면 한숨이 나올 때가 많습니다. 가지고 있는 옷은 적지 않은데 입을 옷이 마땅치 않다고 느끼는 건 고질적인 증상입니다. 게다가 고작 한두 시즌이 지난 옷을 매력과 생기를 잃은 물건처럼 대하는 일도 많고요. 이처럼 여러 실패담이 켜켜이 쌓이고 쌓인 옷장이지만 돌파구가 없는 것은 아닙니다. 가슴을 뛰게 하거나 눈길을 사로잡지 않아도 유독 손이 많이 가는 옷과 가방, 액세서리 등이 묵묵히 제 몫을 다하고 있으니까요. 개인적으로는 이런 아이템들을 ‘애착’의 카테고리에 넣어보고 싶습니다. 애착이라는 개념에는 단어 그대로의 정의와 달리 모호한 구석이 존재합니다. 좋고 나쁘다, 완벽하거나 허술하다, 경제적 또는 비경제적이다 같은 명쾌한 가치 판단과는 거리가 멀죠. 애착의 의미에 비교적 가까이 다가갈 만한 표현을 꼽는다면 “(내게) 알맞다” 정도가 아닐까요. 내게 알맞은 물건을 찾는 일에 몰두한다면 옷에 대한 관점도 바뀔지 모릅니다. 2023년의 두 번째 에서 소개하는 바버는 그런 면에서 많은 이의 애착 카테고리에 들어 있는 브랜드라 할 수 있습니다. 브랜드가 탄생한 영국은 물론 일본과 한국에서 만난 바버 사용자들을 포함해 바버 직원들까지도 오랜 시간 진심으로 바버 제품을 아껴왔으며 앞으로도 그러할 것임을 덤덤하게 내비쳤는데요, 바버 마니아 중 10~20년간 잘 관리한 왁스드 코튼 재킷을 입는 경우는 보편적이라 할 수 있을 정도입니다. 브랜드의 소비자가 되는 것과 팬이 되는 것에는 분명 차이가 있는데, 바버는 신뢰와 믿음을 기반으로 형성된 팬덤이 조용하지만 아주 견고하게 작동합니다. 그 팬덤의 중심에는 신화의 원전과도 같은 왁스드 코튼 재킷이 자리하죠. 100여 년 전 잉글랜드 북동부 해안의 어부와 노동자가 입던 옷, 사냥 및 승마가 취미인 귀족과 왕족의 레저 복장에서 빠지지 않던 옷, 그리고 뮤직 페스티벌을 찾은 록 스타와 셀러브리티가 즐겨 입는 옷 등으로 바버는 늘 시대에 걸맞은 이야기를 써 내려왔습니다. 바버를 설명하는 수식으로 기능성이나 내구성 등이 따라붙지만, 바버를 기능성 의류 브랜드로 보기에는 다소 무리가 따릅니다. 극한의 퍼포먼스를 발휘하도록 제작한 아웃도어 의류가 내세우는 스펙에 비하면 바버의 기능적 디테일들은 그야말로 ‘흔적’에 가깝다고 생각합니다. 앞서 말했듯 특정 지역의 문화와 특정 직군의 삶을 대변해온 바버 재킷은 일종의 설화와도 같고, 사람들은 하나의 상징을 입는다고 할 수 있으니까요. 전기차가 상용화된 시대에 수동 기어 자동차를 몰고자 하는 이들의 심리와 비슷하다고도 느껴집니다. 도구 역할을 충실히 해내지만 시간의 틈새를 풍성히 채울 취미로 더 가치를 발하는 면에서 말이지요. 5대째 바버의 명맥을 이어온 창업자 존 바버의 후손들은 그런 점에서 진보적 비즈니스맨과 창의적 스토리텔러, 보수적 연구가의 캐릭터를 유연하게 오간 듯 싶습니다. 원형이 지닌 권위를 훼손하지 않으면서 사업을 확장해왔다는 것이야말로 이들이 일궈낸 최고의 성과일 테고요. 와 나눈 인터뷰에서 바버의 CEO 스티브 벅은 사업을 번창하게 만든 브랜드의 방식이 “충격적이지 않은 선에서 사람들을 놀라게 하는 것”이었다고 밝혔습니다. 현재 회장직을 맡고 있는 마거릿 바버 역시 타 언론을 통해 “아주 조심스럽게 혁신했다”고 말하기도 했죠. 사소한 것을 발견하고 그에 대한 의미를 부여하며 존중하는 동시에 비트는 것이 영국인의 재주라면, 이들은 그 장기를 십분 발휘하고 있는 셈입니다. 편집장 박은성

■ About the Publication Amid the waves of numerous brands sweeping the globe, B shares its perspective on well-balanced brands and uses print media to demonstrate the timeless values of individual brands. Defining a well- balanced brand by four standards-beauty, practicality, price, and philosophy-B offers unique insights and in-depth analysis of one well- balanced brand in one issue every month. ■ About the Issue Welcome to the 97th issue of B. We are just barely into the New Year, but when I try to think of words I heard most frequently last year, dopamine comes to mind first. This hormone gets mentioned so much probably because both the supply and demand sides of the content market are endlessly in pursuit of more fun and more entertainment. In Korea, the market is often referred to as the “attention economy” or “addiction economy.” It has become the norm to quickly consume content and get validated through likes rather than slowly explore the nature of something. Against this backdrop, many creative industries have become more entertainment-driven, too; we are in an era when everything from fashion and make-up to news and knowledge must feel fun. Play has come to be synonymous with technology, content, and value. When it comes to entertainment, Disney is the golden child. There are many ways to describe Disney: the Magic Kingdom, a large media corporation, and a mega intellectual property mogul. However, if I had to pick one word that best describes the spirit of this 100-year-old company, it would be entertainment. “We have always tried to be guided by the basic idea that, in the discovery of knowledge, there is great entertainment-as, conversely, in all good entertainment, there is always some grain of wisdom, humanity, or enlightenment to be gained.” If what Walt Disney said here is true, the type of entertainment that Disney chases is nothing like the dopamine-driven one. Lifelong Disney fans often connect values like positivity, courage, optimism, happiness, and a sense of life to the type of entertainment Disney provides. Of these values, happiness is an important keyword for Disney. The company commits itself to bringing happiness to people of all ages through top-class entertainment. Though the word happiness is hard to interpret (and some doubt that it even exists), Disney has a wizard-like ability to manifest this abstract concept into tangible reality. Amid all the nuanced definitions of happiness, Disney’s idea of the emotion is closer to being in a state of feeling safe and secure, not a state of elation. The animations, films, and musicals, as well as the theme parks-the ultimate confluence of it all-separate and protect anyone who enters the world of Disney from elements that evoke negative feelings. Lifting people up with positivity and showing them that the world is worth living in, that they can fill their life up with good memories. This is the heart of the Disney mantra. The Disney sense of happiness started with classic animations like Mickey Mouse, The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, and The Lion King, and it now includes the acquired worlds of Pixar, Marvel, and Star Wars-all of which serve as the engine for Disney’s expansive worldview. And the soundtracks, books, merchandise, and theme parks continue to remind and reproduce that joy. This cycle, designed by Disney, works in interesting ways in people’s lifestyles: Some people might have been exposed to Disney as a child and then, after a period of cynicism in adolescence, were reminded of old memories and started to consume the content again in collage. Others might have been ambivalent to Disney until they became parents or grandparents and experienced the brand’s power for the first time later in life. In this tightly woven worldview, people get to meet Disney in different stages of life, and their impressions of the brand are all very different. I think this universal yet personal brand experience is the secret behind Disney’s success, a company that is 100 years in the making. Eunsung Park Editor in Chief

Amid the waves of numerous brands sweeping the globe, B shares its perspective on well-balanced brands and uses print media to demonstrate the timeless values of individual brands. Defining a well- balanced brand by four standards-beauty, practicality, price, and philosophy-B offers unique insights and in-depth analysis of one well- balanced brand in one issue every month. Welcome to the 94th issue of B. When we reorganize our closets as the seasons change, we often sigh a lot. Although we have a lot of clothes, we always think we have nothing to wear for the coming season. And we treat clothes from a year or two ago as mere objects devoid of all charm or vitality. But despite our closets full of storied failures, if you will, there are a few items that do endure: the clothes, bags, and accessories we wear most frequently. They are neither thrilling nor eye-catching, but they quietly do their jobs. Personally, I think of these as “attachment” pieces. Despite the literal definition of the word, attachment has some ambiguity. It is far from clear values like good or bad, perfect or imperfect, and economical or uneconomical. What we can describe as an object of attachment is, I think, something that is “just right for me.” Focusing on the right fit for yourself may change your whole perspective on clothing. In this regard, Barbour, the second brand introduced by B in 2023, is something people can really get attached to. Barbour customers-not only in its birthplace of Britain but also across the world in Korea and Japan-and Barbour employees say they have long cherished the brand’s products and will continue to do so for years to come. Case in point: It is not unusual for Barbour enthusiasts to wear well-maintained waxed jackets for 10 or 20 years. There is definitely a difference between being a consumer and being a fan, and Barbour’s fandom, quiet yet strong, has been built on trust and faith. At the center of the fandom is the waxed jacket, which serves as sort of a tangible origin myth for the brand. Workwear for fishermen and laborers in North East England a hundred years ago, leisurewear for royalty and aristocrats who enjoyed hunting and horseback riding, and fashion apparel for celebrities and rock stars at music festival-Barbour has dynamically added to its history for each new era. Although functionality and durability are frequently used words to describe the brand, it is rather far- fetched to call Barbour a functional clothing brand. Compared to the specifications of outdoor clothing, which is designed to endure extreme conditions, the functional details of Barbour feel more like “traces.” As mentioned before, the legendary Barbour jackets have represented the culture of a certain region or profession, and in a way, wearing the brand’s items are symbolic. It is similar that you still want to drive manual gear cars in an era when electric vehicles are commercialized. It is not only because they do their job as a tool, but also because they are meaningful as a small comfort that fills up time like a hobby and makes your life ricker. In this vein, founder John Barbour’s progeny-now in the fifth generation as Barbour company owners-seem to have flexibly changed roles between the innovative businessperson, the creative storyteller, and the traditional researcher. The biggest achievement has been the brand’s ability to expand its business while not undermining the authority of the prototypes. In an interview with B, Steve Buck, managing director of Barbour said that Barbour was able to thrive by “making people surprised in a way that is not shocking.” Likewise, Barbour Chairperson Dame Margaret Barbour once said the brand has revolutionized itself very carefully. If it is a uniquely British skill to be able to discover small things and give meaning to them while simultaneously respecting and adapting them to the times, the Barbour family has been doing their job wonderfully.
