A J.Simons ClassicThis jacket is long established as standard issue Americana. In the States it is known as the G9, or the Baracuta jacket. In the U.K. John Simons began calling this stylish windcheater a Harrington in 1965, after the character Rodney Harrington from the popular '60s soap Peyton Place, a man forever sporting the 2-button stand-up collar jacket. The name has stuck and the jacket style has continued to draw its admirers. In the 50s and 60s this jacket was everywhere and it effortlessly evokes classic American '60's cool. The Ivy and Squire Shops became synonymous with the Harrington and J.Simons continues this tradition.You will normally find a range of styles and colours in stock. We have recently taken fresh delivery of the famous Baracuta Harrington, after a period of time when we couldn't get hold of them. They are much in demand and we have some striking colours in stock.
