Shop by Material
Wool body, leather sleeves or satin?
For a traditional letterman look, a wool body with contrast sleeves gives a familiar collegiate silhouette. All-wool jackets carry the fabric texture across both the body and sleeves. Satin offers a smooth surface and a visible sheen for a different finish. Genuine Leather and Faux Leather are separate material choices even when their color and appearance are similar. Choose the sleeve option on the product page and ask us to confirm any fabric or color requirement before ordering.
Customization GuideQuestions before you choose
What materials are used for varsity jackets?
Common choices include wool bodies, wool sleeves, leather or faux leather sleeves, and satin. The exact combination varies by design, so check the product description and material options before ordering.
Does the Leather Varsity Jackets collection mean an all-leather jacket?
On this store, that collection contains wool-body jackets with leather or faux leather sleeve options. It does not mean every jacket has a leather body. For an all-leather design, discuss the required body and sleeve materials with our team.
What is the difference between Genuine Leather and Faux Leather sleeves?
Genuine Leather is an animal-hide material; Faux Leather is a synthetic alternative. They can look similar, but their composition and care needs differ. Select the option you want on the individual jacket.
Can I add embroidery or chenille patches to these materials?
Customization options depend on the material, design size and artwork. Embroidered text works well for names and detail; chenille is often chosen for bold letters and numbers. Send your artwork so we can confirm a suitable method.
