The new and exclusive Henry Cooper © Harrington jacket. This timeless classic is both a celebration of 1960’s fashion and Cooper’s effortless style of the same era. Originally the chosen uniform of mods, punks and rude-boys the Harrington jacket quickly became ubiquitous among the style conscious and continues today to be a staple of every modern gentleman’s wardrobe. The HC Harrington is made in 100% navy cotton twill, which has a natural water-resistant quality. The jacket is lined, with a Henry Cooper back-neck and inside pocket label. On the chest sits a dyed to match HC embroidery inspired by a similar font from his boxing shorts - cuffs and neck are push-button. Sporty, stylish and elevated but above all completely unique.
