Black Leather Varsity Jacket, Contrast

Black Leather Varsity Jacket, Contrast

Black leather forms the main body and outer sleeve, with cream leather color-blocked into panels down each side seam and along the inner sleeve. Seven silver snap buttons close the front placket, more than the five-snap closures on our other styles, and a solid black ribbed knit collar and waistband keep the trim minimal. The welt pocket on each side sits directly within the cream panel rather than the black leather.

Where our gold-trim style uses piping to trace the seams, this jacket color-blocks full cream panels into the side body and inner sleeve instead — a bigger, bolder contrast than a piped edge. The cropped, fitted cut also sits closer to the body than our oversized bomber styles, keeping the color-block panels visible rather than lost in extra volume.

Specifications

Fit & Sizing

This jacket holds a fitted, cropped shape rather than the looser drape of our oversized bomber styles, keeping the cream side panels defined against the body instead of billowing out.

Model reference: Shown on a 5'7" (170 cm), 121 lb (55 kg) model in size Small.

Because the fit sits close to the body, going up a size is worth considering if you plan to layer anything heavier than a T-shirt underneath. Check our size chart against your chest and waist measurements before ordering.

Why This Jacket

• Color-blocked cream side panels — a bolder contrast than piping, built into the side body and inner sleeve rather than just traced along a seam.
• Seven-snap front closure — more snaps than our other styles for a fuller placket line.
• Pockets set into the contrast panel — placed within the cream leather rather than the black body.
• All Full Grain Cowhide construction — both colors are genuine leather, not a leather-and-fabric hybrid.
• Quilted interior lining — adds warmth and structure without extra bulk under the leather shell.

Care Instructions

The cream inner sleeve panel sits right at the elbow bend, so it creases and shows fold lines more visibly than the black leather does with repeated arm movement — conditioning that panel a little more often can help it stay supple instead of developing hard crease lines. Keep the cream panels away from dark fabrics or dyed denim in the first several wears, since color transfer runs both directions between light and dark leather. Condition the whole jacket every few months with a leather-specific product.
