1937 - it was this year in Manchester by Baracuta that the legendary Harrington jacket was first made. Why legendary? Yes, simply because even then this clothing proved itself as a high-quality development of the British brand. At first, this luxury was available to financially well-off people, and so in Harrington it was possible to see golfers, and later - members of the Ivy League.
Features of women's jackets Harrington
The basis of this outer garment is water-resistant and is made of high-density cotton fabric, with Teflon impregnation present. And elastic knitted elastic bands on cuffs do not constrain movements during walking and provide comfortable wearing throughout the day.
By the way, earlier this jacket was worn exclusively by men, and it was, let's say, the official form of the British subculture. Her adherents led a crazy lifestyle: street showdowns, attempts to swim against the current and not obey the generally accepted norms, rules. Increased strength clothing and convenience - that's why this clothing began to gain popularity among young people.
Although in this case I want to make some amendment: in the 70s of the last century black, gray, blue and other colors of Harrington jackets were worn by girls of a slightly masculine storehouse. For example, previously called Skinhead-girl. By the way, now the brand Merc creates a women's clothing line Harrington Jacket, consisting of jackets Harrington three basic colors: black, sand and fuchsia.
Already more than half a century has passed, and this famous model of the windbreaker Merc creates everything from the same durable and durable fabric, with a rectangular collar on buttons, with a checkered lining, knitted cuffs and belt and, of course, pockets whose shape resembles a mail envelope.
It is also important to note that, in addition to the above-mentioned brand, Max Fuchs, the largest manufacturer of the German military uniform, produces the Harrington jacket of the English style. Undoubtedly, here, as well as in the classical model, there is a strong lightning and dense elastic bands, monochrome color was diluted with a camouflage print. Although the winter collection of the label was supplemented by a black model, which includes wool and viscose, the lining is not made of polyester, but acrylic. Its highlight was bright red checkered lining, which says: "This jacket - the most legendary Harrington."
