Baracuta Ivory Label: about time

It took them a while but Baracuta has finally got its act together and taken a fresh look at its designs. More importantly it has got Kenichi Kusano, the former director of Beams+ on board for this new Ivory collection, which updates the lines with fresh materials and details and keeps the palette simple and classic. The Ivory collection has 15 styles, all of which feature the trademark Fraser tartan in a subtle manner.

Baracuta collabs: Steve would go Ape

When Steve McQueen slipped on that Baracuta G9 back in the day he inadvertently fuelled the flames of a style that was even then heading towards classic status.

What he would think of the latest incarnations of the jacket is anyone's guess.

There is one version of the G9 in collaboration with Deluxe and then the Bape version of the G4, which has been previously mentioned on this site but is available to see here in all its monkey-like detail.
