Best Harrington jackets for men: Top brands to consider
May 7, 2025
Creating a capsule wardrobe will ease the dreaded daily dressing process.
This process should be about investing in timeless essentials that can be mixed and matched for easy styling. Your capsule wardrobe should include a strong pair of straight-leg jeans - did someone say Levi’s 501s? There should also be a pristine white T-shirt (Sunspel’s your best bet), a black blazer and a pair of classic loafers. And, when the transitional season hits, a Harington jacket is essential.
It’s your saving grace when it’s too hot for an overcoat yet too cold to go without a top layer. The best styles will be weatherproof too – the fabric should be hardy enough to keep a light shower at bay while the signature button collar will deal with the wind-chill factor. And, if you choose a versatile shade of black, navy or neutral, it will work with pretty much everything else in your wardrobe.
Whichever you pick, you’ll be joining a long list of A-listers in the all time big menswear leagues who are proud stans of the silhouette: James Dean, Elvis, Marlon Brando and Steve McQueen to name but a few. And, more recently, everyone from Liam Gallagher to Bradley Cooper and Timothée Chalamet has been spotted in their own take.
One brand they’ll all be familiar with is Baracuta. Baracuta is to Harrington jackets what Levi’s is to denim and Burberry is to trenches – it’s impossible to imagine one without the other. The Manchester-based label actually invented the now ubiquitous staple, originally named the G9 jacket, back in 1947 as outerwear for golfers, which offers protection from the rain but doesn’t limit swinging movement.
