Black Wool Varsity Jacket, Bomber Cut

Black Wool Varsity Jacket with Leather Sleeves — Bomber Cut

An all-black varsity jacket that lets texture do the talking. The body is cut from heavyweight 24-ounce melton wool with a smooth matte surface, set against sleeves in pebbled top grain cowhide that catch the light with every move. Where a traditional letterman announces itself with contrast stripes and chenille, this one strips the formula down to silhouette and material — a clean bomber cut, solid black rib-knit collar, cuffs, and hem, and nickel-tone snaps that give the front just enough hardware to break up the monochrome.

All-black means all-purpose. This is the varsity that moves between settings a two-tone colorway can't — over a tee and raw denim on the weekend, over a black knit when the evening calls for sharper. The back panel is completely plain, so it doubles as a base for embroidery or a custom patch if you ever want to make it louder. Until then, it stays quiet on purpose.

Specifications

Fit & Sizing

The bomber cut runs trim and clean — the ribbed hem finishes at the waist rather than the hip, the shoulder seam sits square, and there's enough room through the chest for a tee or light knit without excess bulk.

Model reference: The model is 6'1" (185 cm), 170 lbs (77 kg), and wears a size Medium.

True to size for most builds; if you plan to layer hoodies underneath regularly, go one size up. Check the size chart before you order — bomber-cut jackets finish shorter at the hem than standard varsity styles, and the chart gives exact body length, chest, and sleeve measurements.

Why This Jacket

• Tonal black-on-black colorway — the rare varsity jacket that works in dressed-up settings, not just casual ones
• Pebbled top grain cowhide sleeves — real hide with visible grain, softening and molding to your arm the more you wear it
• Diamond-quilted black lining — insulated warmth with a smooth glide over knitwear, visible craftsmanship the moment the jacket opens
• Nickel-tone snap hardware — a deliberate cool-metal contrast against the black, sharper than standard brass on this colorway
• Plain back panel — keep it minimal or send it for custom embroidery; the choice stays yours

Care Instructions

Professional dry cleaning only — never machine wash, as wool and leather respond differently to water and detergent. Hang on a broad-shouldered hanger between wears, air out rather than wash after light use, and treat the cowhide sleeves with leather conditioner once or twice a season to keep the grain supple.
