Similar to my last post almost a year ago, https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/311864

I'm a big fan of investing in classic casual menswear. Buy once, buy right. Versatile pieces that you can dress up and down, rather than seasonal Politix, Asos, H&M,etc one-hit wonder garbage. Hence, I love recommending the Harrington jacket from Ben Sherman.

My pick from Ben Sherman, the classic Harrington Jacket. This is the best value Harrington alternative to the original Baracuta G9. Usually, $159.95, and now $79, including the core colours Navy, Black and Sand.

https://bensherman.com.au/catalog/clothing/harringtons NO LONGER AVAILABLE

Their other well-known classic range is the Gingham Shirts,
https://bensherman.com.au/catalog/clothing/gingham-shirts

Some guides on why every man should have a Harrington jacket in their wardrobe:
www.artofmanliness.com/2016/03/16/style-staples-the-harringt…
https://www.gentlemansgazette.com/harrington-jacket-baracuta…
https://ashleyweston.com/mens-wardrobe-essentials/essentials…

Think it's an old man's jacket? Perhaps the vintage Baracuta G9's and Ralph Laurens were, but the Ben Sherman has a contemporary, slimmer cut. If you think its an old mans style, stick to your low rise skinny jeans and tall tees.

MOD: According to Ben Sherman, 15% off coupon from welcome newsletter does not work with sale items, and cannot be used in this sale.

Update 1 June 2018 9:45am: The Harringtons are no longer available online.

          Probably with chinos and jeans. Your advice is greatly appreciated.

          @Velt:

          IMO the best value, ready to wear blazers, in Australia are from MJ Bale. Even better when on sale. Look for the softest, lightest constructed blazer from them.

          I also like the range from Brooks Brothers. Timeless classics, but more structured and formal.

          If you are lucky enough to be in Sydney, Suit Supply has one of the best ranges and value in the world!

          Don't buy a jacket online. Try it in stores. Fit is critical

        • Velt on 29/05/2018 - 20:20

          @zhenjie:

          Thanks!

          No brooks brothers in WA it seems. I'll give MJ Bale ago, nothing on their website is on sale but I'll check out the store on the weekend.

          What about Rodd and Gunn?

        • zhenjie on 29/05/2018 - 20:46

          @Velt:

          Been liking the Rodd and Gunn range past few years. Excellent fabric. Have a more constructed look to them, which I think works for Aussies.

        • Munki on 30/05/2018 - 11:22

          @zhenjie: I totally forgot Suit Supply was opening a store in Sydney!!!

        • Velt on 30/05/2018 - 19:29

          @zhenjie:
          Many thanks!

        • billbro on 31/05/2018 - 00:34

          @Munki: Not opening, been opened for a little while - doesn't have a big range though.

          Was looking forward to trying out the MTM service, but the fitter seemed so-so.

        • billbro on 31/05/2018 - 00:36

          @zhenjie:

          Problem with MJ will potentially be the working button holes, unless you are happy to pay an arm to have them taken up by by the armpit. SuSu has enough variety in the blocks that you can work around their working button holes.

          Brent Wilson suits are fused from my understanding?

        • Munki on 31/05/2018 - 09:41

          @billbro: Yeah I meant I recalled they were opening a store here, but totally forgot to follow up on the progress.

          In regards to Brent Wilson, yeah I'm pretty sure they're fused suits. Not sure you can get canvassed suits at those prices…

          A place I've also heard of, but never tried, is Herman Bros at Burwood - but pretty sure they'd be pricier than places like Suit Supply.

          The most economical way of getting that would probably be to travel to Asia…

  • Stivo on 29/05/2018 - 16:27

    OHHH sweet. Just got a whole back suit for $170!

  • AussieDaddy on 29/05/2018 - 16:32

    Does anyone know where these are made? Should all Ben Sherman Harrington jackets be made in the UK, or they outsource them to China and other places? I ask that cuz a couple of years ago I bought one from an EziBuy deal that was posted here, and the quality wasn't that great, not sure if it had to do with the fact that it was made in China. Also it wasn't 100% cotton. Do they come in other fabrics, or they have to be 100% cotton?

    • zhenjie on 29/05/2018 - 17:03

      Ben Sherman are made in China or elsewhere. Their core Harrington range is 100% cotton outer and excellent quality for its price. Your one may have been their budget windbreaker found in outlets and Costco. It's pretty bad.

      • AussieDaddy on 29/05/2018 - 17:22

        Your one may have been their budget windbreaker found in outlets and Costco. It's pretty bad.

        Very likely. The outer layer of mine was either polyester or some other fabric, and not definitely 100% cotton. It was cheap, so all good.

  • sam91 on 29/05/2018 - 16:46

    whats the go if i buy something and it doesn't fit properly? i know they say free returns on all orders but does that include clothes I've opened and worn?

    • boozler on 29/05/2018 - 16:53

      With a bit of common sense with respect to the word "worn", you shouldn't have any problems.

    • Munki on 29/05/2018 - 17:01

      Don't wear the clothes to go clubbing and ask to return them after…

  • Shiny Mew on 29/05/2018 - 17:00

    Are there any places in Melbourne where I can try one of the Harringtons on?

  • aimon on 29/05/2018 - 17:29

    Bought.

    Fyi I feel Ben Sherman sizes run a bit big. I was sure I would fit a large but after trying it on chose the medium as it felt a bit more snug. Depends on how you will wear it.

    • jeffr on 29/05/2018 - 21:24

      hi whats your height and weight?

      • RyanMK on 29/05/2018 - 22:14

        Not sure about aimon but I'm 183cm and 82kg. I wear a large. I could fit a medium if I really wanted to go for that fitted look. But L was the sensible way to go especially if you're looking to layer.

        • SeanSheep on 30/05/2018 - 10:52

          179cm and 80kg. I tried on Medium and Large. Both would do but Medium was on the smaller side of snug and Large was on the smaller side of relaxed (if that makes sense). I ended up getting the Large.

  • Jimothy Wongingtons on 29/05/2018 - 18:18

    180 and medium build, went for 2 Harringtons in large and 2 gingham shirts in large based on early comments saying they ran small now worried I should have went medium…

    • aimon on 29/05/2018 - 19:00

      I bought large and medium. Free returns.

    Just letting you know, the slim chinos are a bitch to iron and have to be ironed inside out or you get the shiny marks from the iron on the pants.
    You can also use a thin cotton cloth over the pants to iron them.

    Any decent recommendation on sports jackets? Looking for that casual corporate look (e.g. chinos, shoes, shirt).

  • nubzy on 29/05/2018 - 23:38

    IMO, the only person who could make this style of jacket look good is Steve McQueen. Can't understand the hype for them.

    • moo on 29/05/2018 - 23:52

      That’s fashion for ya mate. It is all subjective and comes down to personal taste.

  • HungryRussian on 30/05/2018 - 00:31

    Uhhh so..I was going to purchase one before but decided to go and try one on first. Now that I have returned - that "BENEFITS" code is no longer working as apparently, the Harrington Jacket isn't a "sale item". Pretty annoyed with this as initially, the code worked. Now it isn't. What a let down.

    UPDATE* So I spoke with a Ben Sherman rep - they are having issues with that code working and he recommend trying again tonight and tomorrow. Will update tonight.

  • Moderatorscotty on 30/05/2018 - 17:17

      • Anfy24 on 01/06/2018 - 15:34

    Just tried out the sizes at Myer and it seems like the M is a little too tight for me. (179cm 83kg and about 105 in chest)
    Anyone willing to swap my M for their L/XL in Sydney?

  • giventofly on 04/06/2018 - 18:14

    Went to exchange in-store and they asked how much I paid. I needed a larger size and he said I had to pay $22 difference as the colour/material is different despite it being a Harrington.

    Is this valid of them to do? It's the same cut, just larger and different finish.
