What is the origin of the G9?Updated 8 months ago

The Baracuta G9 Harrington jacket was created by the Miller brothers, John and Isaac, who were golf fanatics and noticed that their fellow golfers were not dressed appropriately for the wet and windy Manchester weather. They designed a unique jacket with a ribbed hem and cuffs, a two-button dog ear collar, an inside pocket, and strategically slanted pockets with a single button closure designed to hold two golf balls. The finishing touch for their already iconic design is the umbrella back yoke with a built-in vent, which makes it a more breathable garment. They called the jacket the G9, with the "G" standing for "golf" and the "9" standing for the 9 holes of the golf course.
