HOXTON, HARRINGTON, BLACK

The Harrington blouson jacket by Real Hoxton from Great Britain is an absolute classic of fashion from various subcultures. The checked inner lining made of pure cotton makes up the typical Harrington style and keeps you warm even in windy weather. The high-quality processing of the seams and the material has many loving details. This model is in jet black fabric. The jackets from Real Hoxton are narrower in both the torso and the sleeves than the blousons from Knightsbridge , which are made in the bulkier bomber jacket style.

A little tutoring lesson on subculture, because I'm often asked questions about the political statement of the Harrington jackets in the pick-up: The skinhead movement originated in a working-class district of London around 1969 and was made up of white 'mods' and black 'rude boys' . They campaigned together for the proletariat, but were mostly rather apolitical - albeit obviously anti-racist. The look of boots and bomber jackets was typical.
