A 'proper' Harrington!

Ive been looking hard for a 'proper' original style black harrington. But i cant seem to find one that is at least true to the original lining style. I remember the 'slightly fluffy fleece red tartan lining' and slimfit style. It also had green silky lining in the sleeves. This is what a i remember was 'proper'.
The 'Combat' brand is far from a true Harrington. I got one as a gift and it took all my strength not to show my disappointment . This harrington was more bulky with a plaid ordinary flat tartan lining. Ive seen many many brands claiming to be selling original style but none seem to be that so i thought id ask other ex skinheads / mods in the UK as i now live in Australia making it virtually impossible for me to get around and find one myself.
I bought my first Harrington at Rugely or Walsall markets in 1982 for about 10 quid i think. The last time i saw one like mine was in about '87. Surely there is still someone selling them somewhere.

Cheers

From what I skimmed of your post, it sounds like you know what you want but have trouble tracking it down. if that's the case, have you looked into a proxy service like SutoCorp or SuddenLee? If the webstore that carries your harrington of choice won't ship to Australia, perhaps a proxy service will. Peace

Will they shop around the markets for me too? Just Kidding. I just want to know if the original harringtons are still being made not the versions ive seen around the last few years. thx tho.

Dont know much on the topic but have you searched through the Mod to suedehead thread?

There should be a lot on harringtons in there.

I been looking for a black harrington without the Tartan lining, this seems even more difficult
