The "Ugly" Trend Fashion Girls Are Stealing From Their Grandpas

And we're back with yet another "ugly" trend that's so cute, fashion girls can't stop wearing it. Today, the trend takes after not your dad, but your grandfather, and for that reason, we are calling it the "grandpa jacket". Considering this jacket style is one your grandpa actually would have worn, we must clarify that it is not new by any means. The jacket we are highlighting today is inspired by the original Harrington jacket which actually dates back to the 1930s. Fun fact: The original Harrington jacket was made by a company called Baracuta and the original jacket can still be purchased today. Research proves that this outerwear piece has held its own in the industry receiving necessary tweaks and adjustments here and there along the way. Wholesale Replica Bag update?
