Feature the Harrington jacket

Our fathers and brothers have each owned one and looked very casual yet fashionable when dressed in it, but what exactly is a Harrington jacket.

What started off as a light-weight jacket designed for golfers in London, has evolved to be a fashion piece found in many people’s wardrobes. What makes the Harrington jacket a plus is that it can be worn all year round. Its light enough to carry you through the summer months while loose enough to be layered underneath in the winter months. In essence, it is a comfortable fit and is the quintessential jacket to have- if anything for its rain-repellent material which works well for rainy seasons as well.

The other beauty of this garment is how versatile it can be worn (however it is not recommended for a “dress up” event). The idea is to have the hem of the jacket around the waist of your pants- this is what makes it a short jacket. A popular and winning combination is a golf t-shirt and a Harrington jacket, which can be paired with anything from a pair of jeans to chinos.

The Brentwood Harrington jacket is navy and has a red checked interior which adds a pop of colour. To see our Harrington jacket, visit our website on https://www.brentwood-sa.co.za/
