BEYOND THE G9 HARRINGTON JACKET

The G9 Harrington remains the reference point of Baracuta outerwear. Designed in the UK since 1937, it has become a cornerstone of British design.

Alongside it, the G4, G18, G12, and G10 carry the same design language into different proportions and attitudes. Each piece keeps the core principles of Baracuta construction, while having its own shape and purpose.

Let’s take a closer look at how these classics compare to the one and only G9; what stays the same, what changes, and what continues to make Baracuta known as “Britain’s Best Rainwear”.

G4 THE TWIN

A boxier, more relaxed take on the G9 Harrington.

What’s the same:

  • Made in the UK
  • Two-button Dog-Ear collar
  • Umbrella back yoke
  • Raglan sleeves for increased ease of movement
  • Fraser Tartan lining
  • Baracuta Cloth construction

What’s different

  • Boxier silhouette than the G9
  • No ribbed cuffs or hem
  • Adjustable side strap fastenings for fit control
  • More relaxed overall structure

G18 THE BLOUSON

Inspired by late-60s blouson styles, reworked in a way that feels more modern and practical for everyday wear.

What’s the same

  • Made in the UK
  • Fraser Tartan lining
  • Umbrella back yoke
  • Two-way logo zip
  • Baracuta Cloth fabric
  • Functional, weather-ready construction mindset


What’s different

  • Relaxed blouson silhouette
  • Shirt-style collar
  • Two action pleats for movement
  • Utility-inspired pocket design

G12 THE COAT

A longer, more wider shape taken from the Baracuta archive, made to work well for
layering and for a more covered, easy outer layer.

What’s the same

  • Made in the UK
  • Umbrella back yoke
  • Fraser Tartan lining
  • Diagonal front pockets


What’s different

  • Longer coat silhouette
  • Wider, more fluid fit
  • Adjustable button cuffs
  • Designed for layering with the Baracuta gilet
  • More formal, composed outerwear shape
  • Increased coverage and presence


G10 THE CLASSIC

A shorter, more fitted trench coat with a clean, straightforward shape.

What’s the same

  • Made in the UK
  • Baracuta Cloth with water-repellent finish
  • Umbrella back yoke
  • Baracuta flap pockets
  • Fraser Tartan lining


What’s different

  • Shorter trench silhouette
  • Shirt-style collar
  • Detachable quilted liner
  • Added wind flap for protection

These pieces all come back to the same place: Manchester. British design shaped by weather and use.

From the G9 to the G4, G18, G12, and G10, each piece carries a different shape and
attitude, but the same foundation runs through them all: made to be worn and made to last.

The G9 Harrington remains the One and Only. The rest sit alongside it, each a classic in its own right, part of a wider story that continues to hold its ground.
