British heritage meets modern Japanese streetwear as Baracuta joins forces with COOTIE PRODUCTIONS on a new capsule collection set to release September 13, 2025.
At the center of the collaboration is Baracuta’s legendary G9 Harrington jacket, a staple of British outerwear since the 1930s. For this project, COOTIE PRODUCTIONS reinterprets the icon with its hallmark wide-cut silhouette, transforming the trim, tailored original into a relaxed, contemporary piece. While the proportions have shifted, Baracuta’s DNA remains intact through signature details such as the umbrella yoke, ribbed trims, and the Fraser tartan lining. For this edition, however, the lining takes on a bold twist in a monochrome variation, giving the jacket a fresh yet timeless personality.
Complementing the outerwear, the capsule expands with two-tuck trousers and button-down shirts designed in COOTIE PRODUCTIONS’ distinctive tailoring fit. These pieces balance clean British-inspired structure with a casual ease rooted in Japanese streetwear, highlighting both brands’ shared appreciation for craft and subtle detailing. Together, the collection creates a wardrobe that bridges traditional menswear codes with an evolved urban sensibility.
The launch will be staged through COOTIE PRODUCTIONS’ flagship store and official online platform, before becoming available at select authorized retailers across Japan. By merging Baracuta’s legacy of refined utility with COOTIE PRODUCTIONS’ contemporary edge, the capsule not only pays tribute to the enduring relevance of the Harrington jacket but also reimagines it for a new generation of wearers.
This collaboration underscores a broader movement in menswear, where heritage pieces are recontextualized within modern street style frameworks, offering garments that are both classic and forward-looking.
