The Babur “Transport” is currently the hottest item on the market. What is the reason for its popularity?
Why has the popularity of the transport been soaring in the past few years? We explain the features of the transport that have captured people’s hearts.
Reason for the popularity of BABUA “Transport” (1) “Short length with a perfect balance for a modern look
The biggest reason for the growing popularity of the Transport in recent years is the sense of balance created by the exquisite short length, which can be said to be the most distinctive feature of this model. Compared to the M size of other models, the “Bideil,” which features a mid-length, is about 75 cm in length, the “Spey,” which is a short length for fly fishing, is about 60 cm in length, and the Transport is somewhere in between, at about 65 cm in length. The Transport is about 65 cm in length, which is in between the two. It has achieved an exquisite length that is “more than a spay and less than a bideil,” and matches the current trend for short outerwear. It goes well with trendy oversized knitwear and sweatshirts, and can be worn in a layered style with innerwear peeking out from the hem. The length is short, but the armholes and body width are wide-fitting, so even thick innerwear can be worn without bulging out.

Reason for the popularity of BABUA “Transport” (2) “Sophisticated style of the modern era that hides individuality within minimalism
The reason for the popularity is not only the silhouette but also the design. While most of the popular standard models have a work-style large-capacity gusseted flap pocket at the bottom, the Transport has a smart-looking slanted pocket. The minimalist design is a perfect fit for the urban environment. It is highly fashionable among the many BABUA jackets and exudes a stylish atmosphere even with simple coordination. The corduroy collar and Babur tartan lining are still in place, and the refined, fashionable design has a traditional British feel.

Reason for the popularity of Babur “Transport” (3) “Made of modern waxed cotton with improved odor and stickiness.”
Although the silhouette and design are modern, the material used is the waxed cotton that symbolizes Bubur and carries on the brand’s identity. The 6 oz. cotton, which is neither too heavy nor too light, is impregnated with wax to provide waterproofness, durability, and warmth to withstand inclement weather, while also creating the rugged, rugged atmosphere that only Bubur can offer. It also creates a rugged atmosphere that is unique to Babur. The waxed cotton fabric has been improved from the old wax since the model released in 2006, and is now odorless with no distinctive smell. The stickiness of the fabric has also been minimized to make it easier to wear on a daily basis, so those who like Babur’s designs but are uncomfortable with the smell and texture of wax should definitely give it a try.
