Barbour and Wallace & Gromit Return for Christmas 2026
Wallace & Gromit are back in Barbour's Christmas campaign for 2026, with the British outerwear brand once again joining forces with Aardman for a festive dose of stop-motion mischief.
Titled Warm Wishes, the new film follows the much-loved duo on a snowy countryside walk, where Wallace puts his latest invention, the Walk-o-matic, to the test. Constructed using his favourite armchair and oversized wheels made from Barbour Nimbus Chelsea Welly Boots, the contraption promises a walk without the inconvenience of actually walking. Predictably, things don't go entirely to plan.
Directed by Steve Harding-Hill, the film brings Barbour's Scottish heritage into focus, with its Original and Authentic Tartans appearing throughout the characters' accessories. There are also appearances from Shaun the Sheep and his flock, adding another familiar Aardman creation to the festive proceedings.
The menswear offering gets its own moment, with Wallace receiving a Barbour Cotton Half Knit Zipped Jumper after an unfortunate encounter with the snow. Gromit, meanwhile, is treated to a Barbour Sylkoil Wax Dog Coat.
Beyond the film, Barbour is bringing back its limited-edition Re-loved Wallace & Gromit-inspired wax jackets, with all proceeds going to Oxfam. New additions to the charitable collection include Re-loved scarves and dog coats.
Another year, another reminder that a Barbour jacket and a British Christmas are rather difficult to separate.
