G9 85th Anniversary Book

The Baracuta G9 Harrington Jacket is a genuine and true British icon. Over the last 85 years, the jacket has been worn and loved by actors, musicians and personalities from across the arts. It has also been a core piece of identity for people of all backgrounds. For all of the G9’s famous fans, the jacket has been a perfect combination of design and values, on which every detail has been carefully considered and perfected over almost a century of wear.

This volume is a tribute to the story of the One and Only Original G9 Harrington Jacket, from its early days on the golf courses of Manchester to its appearances on the silver screen and its emergence as a subcultural icon. The authenticity of this distinctive history has been certified for decades by so many different faces who have worn it over time. All of these people have filled the jacket with personal experiences which have given it a special meaning ever since the Miller brothers created it in rainy Manchester in 1938, a year after they founded the world renown Baracuta label.
