    Anyone know somewhere in Dublin city centre where I could get a Harrington jacket. Topman in Jervis had them a while back but not anymore.

    Fresh in Temple Bar always have them. It's a few doors up (right) from Eamon Doran's. Alternatively, as far as I can remember Urban Outfitters had Fred Perry ones in, but they were over €200!

    Clerys on O'Connell St stock Ben Sherman one's, just under €100.

    Got mine in TopMan, Gavins advice is good but....the ones in there are topnotch.

    ^^ If you've your eye on anything from Fred Perry, avoid Urban Outfitters! Beyond the manbag (for which I take dogs abuse :pac: ) I've never bought any Fred stuff there,far too d€ar. Not sure if it's still going but FP had a whopper online sale going there for a while,they do it every so often.

    Tks is good for Freds too, mainly just stick to the polos myself anyway! Urban Outfitters is one of my 'have a look around, very rarely actually buy anything' shops to be honest.

    Few great Harringtons on eBay, had a browsey.

    Well I'm female shopping, but have a good look and try the sportswear section.

    Gavin, which TK do you go to?

    Cause Stephens Green (if thats the one) is the Dresden of TkMaxxes. Place is an absolute mess, you'd never find anything in there, and it's all gone within 10 minutes of the kip opening anyway :rolleyes:

    Try one of the other brances (Blanch for one.... few around the place) It's pretty irregular that Freds show up in the mens section, but it does happen.

    Ye Stephens Green would be the one I'd go to. Been in the one ine Blanch once or twice and it's pretty decent, haven't found any gems yet though.

    FP stuff was on sale last month in Urban Outfitters, all gone now. I picked up a polo for 35, reduced from 90

    Thats a mighty fine catch!

    Off topic now anyway, but I was in the Urban Outfitters out in Dundrum there for the first time a few days back- and I don't really rate it compared to the one in Temple Bar. Maybe that's just me....
