THIS JACKET IS A BADGE OF HONOR

James Scully, a cofounder of Jamestown Hudson, a menswear store in upstate New York, told us why he'll wear his Baracuta until it falls apart

- JONATHAN EVANS

MY BARACUTA IS A COMBINATION OF MY two favorite things. I grew up in a working-class family, but my father was a very stylish man who would save up to buy things. His style was informed by the ’40s and ’50s, which means the Baracuta jacket was always a part of his vernacular. Paul Newman. Steve McQueen. Tab Hunter. Any rugged Hollywood type wore this jacket. It represented a very clean, American thing that I love.
