How to make a varsity jacket wearable
Three levers. Narrow the knit — wide bands of contrast rib are the single loudest element on a varsity jacket. Reduce the colour contrast between body and sleeves, so the split reads as a design line rather than as team colours. And bring the proportions in, so the jacket does not look borrowed.
Pull all three and you get a jacket that reads as a leather jacket with knit trim rather than as college kit — which is much easier to wear over thirty.
Leather construction
Real hide throughout the panels, with ribbed knit only where it does a job: sealing the collar, cuffs and hem against wind. Snap fastenings up the front, which lie flatter than a zip on a leather placket and open one-handed.
The leather will crease at the elbows and soften across the shoulders with wear. On a jacket with restrained detailing, that developing character becomes the main thing you notice about it after a year.
Fit, comfort and styling
Take your normal size for a knit underneath, or size down for a closer fit over a tee. Rib hem at the waist, sleeve at the wrist bone.
Because it is understated, it goes further than a traditional varsity — jeans and trainers obviously, but also chinos and boots, or over a plain shirt. Keep everything else unpatterned.

Frequently Asked Questions
How loud is this jacket?
Deliberately quiet for a varsity — narrow knit trim and a restrained colour split.
Is it real leather?
Yes, real leather panels with ribbed knit only at the collar, cuffs and hem.
Will a knit fit underneath?
Yes at your normal size. Size down if you want it closer over a tee.
Can I add lettering or patches?
Ask before ordering and we will confirm what we can apply.
Why snaps rather than a zip?
Snaps lie flatter on a leather placket, open one-handed, and are correct for the style.

Wipe with a soft dry cloth and condition once or twice a year.
Do you offer custom sizing?
Yes — XS to 5XL plus Custom to your own measurements.
