Piedra Field Jacket
Banana Republic

The design is inspired by old-school workwear, but slight stretch and some modern swag make it feel completely of the moment.

G9 Harrington Jacket
Baracuta

If we were to tell you that this is the original Harrington jacket popularized by stars like Steve McQueen and James Dean and Frank Sinatra in the ‘60s, would you still hold its price against your desire to own one for your own?
