    While most notable soul girl groups of the mid 1960s were fronted by black women, The Shangri-La’s were a notable exception.  Great looking publicity poster from 1964

    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.

    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.
