Harrington jacket

[kakaro]

I just want to hear what you people thing about

harrington jackets.

I just bought one of ebay, and im not sure if it

will give me some crazy skinhead look. because

i really dont want that.

thanks.

harringtons kind of made their stay with skinhead and casual fashion, but i don't think that alone will give a skinhead look.

geoff rowley's no skinhead, case in point

James Dean wore a red one. You won't look skin unless you have the hair. I think they look very classy.

i got the jacket yesterday

and yes, the measurements are CRAZY

the jacket is way too short, but the arms are perfect.

guess, it's made for short and skinny people... im long

and skinny.

I think ill send it back and ask for a size large... now i've

got the size small.

Crazy-

FYI... old navy has a pretty nice harrington in right now. it's thicker than others i've had before with a red plaid lining.

they also have some nice charcoal/black baseball shirts as well.

IIRC, the Barracuda G9 is the OG harrington. They're great jackets...but I'm in the camp that sees them as classic skinhead gear. I used to have the most killer (and rare) PoW plaid Harrington but sold it like an idiot years ago. The navy harrington, Ben Sherman buttondown, Levis redline cuffed .75" and Loake tassel loafer is like *the* way to wear a Harrington imo.
