Can anyone remember Harringtons in castle market?

Anyone remember 'Gino Capelli' jumpers?

They were the must have item of clothing at our school as a 11 year old!

Came in all sorts of designs and colours.

Also had an Ennesee hoody top that lasted years!

Campri Ski Jackets, Naff Co and of course stay-pressed trousers.

Hated those step ladders to change tho as a kid!

Ray Alans was for the more "up market" outfits.... but always the same stuff. Always had really good window displays but go inside and it was completely different. Prices were quite high compared to others in the high street and the quality appeared good until 2 weeks later. I think these 2 Leeds brothers actually started the mass UK import from Bangladesh (no racism slurr intended). One shop on the Moor (around the corner was the hippy shop) and they open one on Chapel Walk. They also had a market stall in Castle Market called Warren David (or David Warren). How original to name the market stalls after the respective sons of the original brothers Ray and Alan (Harris).

Harringtons shirts always use to be rather short on length

Circa 1950 California look. Jeans, thick crepe sole shoes from Saxone, cardigans with contrasting edging, shirts with spear point, saddle stitched collars.

 

All taking the place of yellow pullovers, football scarves, turtle neck navy(goal keeper) jerseys and Bunny's grey flannels and blazer.

Those were the days!

 

Does anyone else remember the flecked trousers from the 80s? Wish they would come back in the shops as I loved them.

Anyone still have an original from Harringtons? Would love to see one again.

 

Cheers
