Saw this jacket in Target from far away on the rack, and got all excited. Until I got closer and realized it wasn't what I was hoping for. It's that suede type windbreaker with a ribbed waist band. It is available in a Navy color and has the Harrington look though. Shown in the link in the Tan color.
I was really liking the look of that J Crew, especially the (apparent) weight of the fabric. But then I noticed it had raglan sleeves, which dials it back a bit for me. Still, really good find!
Interesting! After viewing screenmusings.org, I think you are correct!
If you watch the film where the jacket is undone - the phone call to Leiter, the meeting in the bar - you can see what Welshboy and the rest of us have known for some time.
The shot you have of the tartan lining is a shopped version someone was trying to pass off a few years ago to try to "prove" the jacket was a Barracuta, rather than accepting that, sadly, it was the much more expensive Tom Ford...

Agreed. I have seen that Tartan photo many times and never even considered that it may be real. It was just loud and not what I remembered from first seeing the photos and film.
I picked up a jacket that I think is really similar to the TF Harrington at the J Crew outlet in Orlando. I can't find it on their website but it's really rather close!

It's a dark blue/grey with button tab adjusters at the back on the waist band. Button tab on the sleeves too. It's got the button collar as well. It was on sale at $58 so only around £40. As I'm still on holiday, I can't upload photos at the moment but I can as soon as I get back.

I think a chap on here had one altered, looked quite good.
Yeah at the moment just Y3 but believe he has the other in progress since he has had the TF jacket in hand

That said, I still like Magnoli's better.

Guess I'll be saving for the Magnoli! I don't think the Logan jacket is ever coming out.
