I highly doubt it's real.

Look at the logo in the corner - it's all pixelated and squashed.

When you look up the owner it gives you a Chinese name.

The company's real website is http://www.barbour.com

Clearly not selling the genuine article.

I have not checked the WHOIS, but other answers have said the domain is registered to China, which is one indication

Another is the use of language. The domain itself is "mans...". This should be "mens...". Look at the shipping page - the use of English there is also pretty poor.

Another indication is the site itself. "Designer" brands like Barbour do not have "hot sales" or "discounts". They will reduce prices, but maintaining a quality image is key. So use of these terms definitely indicates a dodgy site.

Finally, if prices are too good to be true, then they are not true. Simple as that. Only the greedy get caught by sites like these.

100% scam.

That is a fake website pretending to sell cheap merchandise.

Any site that advertises merchandise cheaper than the official manufacture's website is a fake site shipping gosh awful crappy knock-offs or simply collecting cash and not even bothering to ship fakes.

The pictures on the site look like the real merchandise because those pictures ARE of the official merchandise. Those pictures were stolen from the official manufacture's website. If you receive anything at all, which is doubtful, it will not resemble those pretty pictures at all.

The payment options say it all, Western Union and moneybookers. The credit card icons are just there for show, that site does not accept credit cards, only anonymous cash payments.

Western Union and moneygram do not verify anything on the form the sender fills out, not the name, not the street address, not the country, not even the gender of the receiver, it all means absolutely nothing. The clerk will not bother to check ID and will simply hand off your cash to whomever walks in the door with the MTCN# and question/answer. Neither company will tell the sender who picked up the cash, at what store location or even in what country your money walked out the door. Neither company has any kind of refund policy, money sent is money gone forever.

Moneybookers is completely anonymous for the scammer to pick up your cash and disappear. No way to track who picked up your cash, where and no way to get it back when you realize you were scammed.

In all seriousness, when something goes wrong, what will you do? Send an email that is ignored and blocked? Send chat requests until you are ip banned? Call internationally and speak fluent Chinese?

The UPS, TNT and DHL icons are there only to take up space, that site only ships with EMS, the Chinese post office, good luck getting the "tracking number" they give you to work on the EMS website. You will need even more luck trying to contact EMS when your tracking stops and your "package" is lost somewhere.

You could then be really lucky, your "package" is discovered, seized by "customs" and all you need to do is pay even more money via Western Union or moneygram to the "custom's official" who uses a free email address just like that site has a free email address as its contact information.

Free email addresses are easy to open and close completely anonymously.

The website is real but the items are not.

I stupidly ordered a Men's Wax jacket and received a Women's pleated jacket. The jacket is also an obvious fake. Currently trying to get my money back who knows if that'll work.
