Spring is here and this is the most difficult time of the season because if you layer yourself then it’s too hot and if you wear only shirt then it is very cold. But we have exactly the right option, which is a Harrington jacket. This jacket has its origin from England. In 1930s it was made by most of the companies in England. Soon it was exported to the US and this became a style stale there and from there to though out the world. Hmm so you are asking what exactly a Harrington jacket is. Do not worry we are going to explain every aspect of this jacket.
A Harrington jacket is a waist length jacket with a zipper and has the following features:
1. It is made with a lightweight and water-resistant material. Nowadays it is also available in leather, suede or wool but traditionally it is made from 100% cotton or cotton blend.
2. The cuffs of the sleeve cuffs and bottom hem are made with an elasticized material.
3. As far as pockets are concerned then slanted, buttoned, flap pockets are made on each side of the front of the jacket.
4. There is an umbrella-inspired vent on the back of the jacket. The is designed to run rainwater off the shoulders, and over the waistband, so your pants don’t get wet.
5. The collar of the jacket is double-button, straight, stand-up and mandarin style. This will give the shape of funnel to the collar that can be snapped shut so rain doesn’t go down your neck.
6. The sleeves of the jacket are raglan styled for added range of motion. Raglan sleeves are those sleeves that start up by the collar, rather than being attached flush with the shoulder.
7. The last characteristic is lining with a tartan pattern design.
