j.simmons harrington
J.simmons apparel harrington's are in store. I popped in yesterday afternoon and was informed that they had come in a few hours earlier in the day.
there lovely quality. and I bought one on the spot in rather fetching olivey green. It was a toss up between that and the natural. I thought the green was a bit special.They are made in the smoke in ol blighty to boot.
The natural is nice too though and is akin to the og g9 colour ala steve mcqueen. I think it comes dark navy too.

Very interesting.
I guess the new old school Chinos & Slack Jacket are on their way too, now the label has been launched.

Sheer marketing genius: "be quick, we might close shop soon ... then again we might stick around for a while ... either way, be quick!"
In all earnest: I'd like to know as well.

Re: j.simmons harrington
Sounds very nice, NV. Could you please give us some more detail? Lining? Price?
Thanks!

Hi, the lining is in a green/red small check tartan which is rather nice. though not as thick as the baracuta lining.
single inside pocket same as g9, no button though.
shower proof finnish on the outer shell. knitted collar cuffs and waste band.
all in all its a pretty decent harrington. Its the colour's which I liked the most. That sold it for me along with og cut.
I thought the olive a tad unusual and the natural was just that, rather than the warmer colour baracuta are using nowadays.
folk are gonna moan about one thing or another its inevitable. you just cant please everyone. best nv

Re: j.simmons harrington
I am wondering if this is a new jacket or the (very nice) Bramble rebranded? Any photos would be much appreciated....
