Harrington jackets have been a go-to clothing item for many years. The jacket's practicality makes it ideal for use in a variety of occasions. You can find the right Harrington jacket for you on eBay.

The jackets are quite versatile and can be used with almost any outfit. Harrington jackets are best suited to casual or smart casual events where they can easily be combined with a pair of jeans and a T-shirt. Some jackets feature classic lines, which makes them suitable for more formal events.

Most jackets are designed as light jackets and are not intended for use in frosty weather. That said, every jacket is different and you should pay close attention to the design of the jacket to make sure that it is suitable for your intended purpose. You can also layer clothes on very cold days. A Harrington jacket works great as a mid-layer and can be worn directly under your outermost layer of clothes.

The typical Harrington jacket is a lightweight, waist-length garment designed to keep you comfortable on chilly days. The jackets are usually made from cotton, polyester or natural wool fibres. Harrington jackets are ideal for use during early spring and autumn because they provide lightweight warmth.

Although the design had been around for some time, the jackets really became famous during the 1950s when they were worn by several movie stars and singers. One such actor portrayed the character of "Harrington" in a soap opera and because the character often wore what is now known as a Harrington jacket, the jacket got its name.

Choosing the right jacket can be a challenge because of all the different shapes and sizes that are available. Your choice will be much simpler if you keep the following in mind:

• Size and cut: Look for a jacket that works well with your body shape and a cut that makes you feel comfortable. Bear in mind that a tight fitting jacket can make moving around difficult and even uncomfortable.
• Timeless design: Look for a timeless design that will still be in fashion in a few years from now.
• Practicality: It is important to make sure that your jacket is practical and stylish. For wheelchair users, look out for a jacket that can stay well clear of your spokes.
