Baracuta is the Home of the Original G9 Harrington Jacket!
Baracuta made the first-ever harrington jacket, which is now much copied by some today but the definitive harrington jacket is only made by Baracuta.. Founded in 1937, brothers Isaac & John Miller set about designing a revolutionary jacket and the G9 Jacket was born, complete with the exclusive Fraser Tartan lining.
The G9 Jacket was later to take on the name of ‘Harrington’ after being worn by the character ‘Rodney Harrington’ in the 1960s TV programme ‘Peyton Place’. In fact, Baracuta has been dressing icons & legends and their entire history with celebs such as Elvis Pressley, Frank Sinatra, Steve McQueen, Liam Gallagher, Thierry Henry, and Daniel Craig ... the list continues! Today Baracuta still attracts a huge level of interest and followers from these icons of cool wearing its famous G9.
Baracuta have an avid following, with firm fan bases from mods & rockers, to the ivy league & skinhead generations. Baracuta is famous the world-over for our G9 Jackets, and are fast becoming the complete men’s casual collection brand with shirts, polos, t-shirts, trousers and knitwear.
Historically Baracuta has always been a menswear brand, but today the success of a women’s version of the G9 and G10 harrington jackets opens up new markets.
