For those interested, Baracuta now offer much more than just Harrington jackets. Shirts, knitwear etc.. I think there are a few nice pieces. I'm pleasantly surprised. See what you think.

Love the buckle-backs!
The chinos look great...too bad there's no place locally to try them on for fit.
Trench is cool too...!
I echo the above thoughts on the buckle back chinos- bloody nice- a few years ago I had some moleskins with the same feature.
Great stuff i love the Cardi thanks for puting this link up

Liking the chinos too....
I really like the check one that Heikki linked...but agree the lime makes it a bit limiting to wear with anything other than a few select outfits.
I can't believe I used to have a PoW harrington that I sold off many years ago...ugh
I ordered the chinos but they won't be available until March 1. Interestingly there is now a store in LA carrying Baracuta (on Larchmont Blvd.). Strangely, they only have the padded/quilted G9s; I tried one on and found it incredibly more slim fitting than usual. They also had a Baracuta cord blazer type jacket - nice but a little square in the shoulders. Prices were better than I would have expected - $285 for padded G9. If they get in the G4s I will probably get one.
Also, nothing the store had appeared to be from the new collection.

Just want to second David's recommendation of American Classics on Endell Street and also point people in the direction of Interstate, just over the road. Massive collection of denim (Lee, Edwin, Nudie and others) plus a vast range of Carhartt stuff. Also Hanes Ts and other bits and bobs of Americana.
Loving your work one and all, been lurking for ages and learned a lot.
More from me another time...
Get Smart, I unfortunately don't know the name of the store on Larchmont (no signage) but it is just south of Blockbuster, on the west side of the street, between the two tennis shoe shops called "Kicks". Used to be owned by the Kicks people. Hope this helps.
Thanks Fred, will have to check it out when I am in that part of town
