A brief history of the Harrington Jacket:
Born in the 1930s, the Harrington jacket was conceived by the Baracuta brand and has
since become a timeless banner waved above various trends and movements. In the 1970s
and 1980s, the Harrington jacket was the icon of the 'Mod' culture movement in the UK.
Young people across the country and globe rejected the dull and traditional attire that was
the norm, and part of what came in place of suits and ties was the Harrington jacket.
The Harrington Jacket Today
Still, the Harrington jacket continues to be a hallmark of modern fashion though it harks
back to a previous cultural generation. The Harrington jacket is an excellent way to
portray a smooth and casual look and can be paired with many different garments from
jeans and a t-shirt, or some smart trousers.
