Behind the Style

Obtaining it's nickname after it was depicted by the character Rodney Harrington in the 60s Soap Opera Peyton Place, the Harrington Jacket can trace it's origins way back to the 30s when Manchester based Baracuta developed the G9 as a lightweight, waist-length jacket based upon the roomy design of over layers worn to play golf - Hence the G in the label's naming conventions.

Popularised in the late 50s after being worn by Elvis Pressley in the movie King Corole and being photographed on the likes of Steve McQueen, James Dean and Frank Sinatra the Harrington's status was cemented in the US after it was adopted as a lightweight, modern jacket by visiting servicemen after WWII. Pushed into the "Ivy League" subcultural sphere after Eric Clapton wore a classic Harrington on T,V in 1964 the jacket became increasingly casualised and stripped down with wearers combing more polo tops and t-shirts with the jacket - a look that became known as the "Peanut".

Adopted in the UK by the mod and Skinhead subcultural movements in the 60s and 70s with later revivals adopted by punks, and fans of indie rock and Brit pop in the decades since.
