The heyday of soul and motown….

Gladys Knight and her Pips, rockin’ and soulin’ in the mid 1960s.  One of the (many) queens of soul music.  An American Legend.

Baracuta G9 Harrington jackets are some of our favorites, and most highly recommended.  The cloth is a teflon coated cotton, making it wind and rain proof.  Here is a classic ad from Baracuta promoting their rain wear.

Arrivederci….poignant moment of an Italian solider saying goodbye to his amour before being sent off to war.

The other king of cool, Michael Caine in the 1960s-70s is one of the bars that were set for the rest of us to aspire to.

It’s hard to just narrow down “one” photo of Steve McQueen being the King of Cool.  This one strikes a chord with me, wearing the navy Baracuta G9 Harrington (He’s also been photographed many times wearing his tan G9), and the aviator sunglasses.  Definitely one of the alltime Kings of Sartorial Cool.
