>$500How is this even worth it? Any alternatives to the Baracuta G9 that aren't overpriced as fuck?
>>18100425stop being poor
>>18100425>Gimme le good thing... For le cheapNeck ur self
>>18100425It's not. Polyblend shit. Also, it's a Harrington, it's plebswear.
>>18100453lmfao it's the plebswear guy again
>>18100449Nigga a harrington jacket or a blouson should be as basic as it fucking gets. You can still find loads of them from the 60s all the way to the 90s in British thrift stores. Indistinguishable quality from Baracuta too. Baracuta is not quality by any stretch
just get a ben sherman one. i got one on sale for like uh..50 dollars i think, and it looks and feels exactly the same as a baracuta. i think buying a baracuta jacket is more of a flex than anything, i mean if you have the money to blow great, but youre paying for the name and just to be able to show it at parties or something to flex on poor ppl. kinda like ppl who would pay 800 dollars or something for a fear of god hoodie when its not even as high quality as a 50 dollar carhartt hoodie
>>18100425Look up vintage LL Bean Harrington jackets on eBay, then size down one because they're cut huge.Nearly if not completely equal in quality and durability, wide variety of colors, easy to find for well under $100
>>18100425Ignore the first two retards ITT. Its a fucking harrington jacket, not some sort of mythical cloak. Just use google.
>>18100453shut up fag
For $500, Steve McQueen better have worn it. That's nothing special.
>>18100449they don't cost what they do because of materials or labor.they cost what they do because a wog fashion company bought them and banks on retards being willing to overpay.
Engineered Garments nigga. Very easy to find them used from Japan.
>>18100449It's not 500 dollars good, that's the thing
>>18100425>Baracuta G9thanks for the recommendation that's right in my price-range :]
>>18100710what color you gonna get? there are so many options i get choice paralysis
>>18100689>find them used from Japanwhat sites should I check out then?
>>18100425Son of a Stag sells them for about $350. Can find them on Ebay for $275 from some limey who got them three years ago from when END clothing sold them for $190 in a huge sale. And END clothing now sells them for $350 after an app coupon. You're not looking hard enough, OP.
>>18100729Natural and Navy are the staple G9 colors. Red is cool too. Red, or even dark red, not the Chilli Pepper shit Baracuta came out with this year.
get a Barbour instead
>>18100425Just buy it used from some boomer.
>>18100915Boomers don't take care of their things
>>18100729was gonna get natural but i saw the lining is plastic dogshit so now i'm looking for alternatives with a natural lining. lmk if you run across any
>>18100458Obligatory to post.
Is there an italian, or at least a non-anglo version of this jacket? Every time I'm about to buy one I remember it's from england and I get overwhelmed with the ick
>>18101175Valstar Valstarino is the one, or just buy the G9 in a suede lmao
>>18100425Last time I cheked, the made in Englang retailed for just ubder 400. The made in Romania, which are virtually indistinguishable from the MiE, could be got on sale for about 275 and you could get them on ebay used in good condition for 80-90.They're nice jackets, well made and have a great fit, but they're not 400 nice, much less 500. If you want name brand, then pay name brand or dig deeper. If you just want a reasonabily priced but decent harrington, as the other anon pointed, Ben Sherman sells a pretty good one for way less. Also a lot of brands carry a harrington of some sort. You can look for a brand you like and it's on a price range you're comfortable with and check their catalog.
fred perry
