The surface carries a soft, honeyed sheen that catches light differently across every panel, the kind of depth flat pigment finishes can't fake. Cream-and-brown striped knits at the cuffs and hem supply the varsity signature, like the trim on a vintage tennis sweater.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe collar is the quiet rule-breaker. A fold-down leather collar on a varsity jacket replaces the usual ribbed stand collar, letting it sit clean over a shirt and read closer to a blouson than a stadium piece. That one swap, plus a full-length silver zipper and unpiped welt pockets, makes this the jacket in the lineup most at home over dark raw denim — dinner on Friday, errands on Saturday, no costume change required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"col\"\u003eAttribute\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"col\"\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBody Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTop Grain Cowhide leather, brown\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSleeve Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTop Grain Cowhide leather, raglan cut\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChestnut brown with cream trim\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClosure\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFull-length silver zip front\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCollar\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFold-down leather shirt collar\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCuffs, Hem\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRibbed knit, brown with cream stripes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePockets\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 side welt pockets\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClassic regular fit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLining\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eQuilted interior lining\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBranding\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWoven Varsity Forge neck label\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFit \u0026amp; Sizing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlouson lines rather than boxy letterman ones — the raglan sleeves free up the shoulders, the body skims without clinging, and the striped hem draws everything neatly to the hip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel reference:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shown on a 6'1\" (185 cm), 170 lb (77 kg) model in size \u003cstrong\u003eMedium\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTake your usual size to wear it over tees and shirts as pictured; layer a sweater underneath often and the next size up earns its keep. \u003cstrong\u003eRun the size chart against the chest and sleeve of a jacket you already love\u003c\/strong\u003e — numbers agree or they don't, and that settles it before shipping does.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy This Jacket\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFold-down leather collar\u003c\/strong\u003e — swaps the ribbed stand collar for a shirt-style one, the single change that moves a varsity jacket from bleachers to dinner reservations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCream-striped knit trim\u003c\/strong\u003e — kept to the cuffs and hem only, so the athletic detail stays visible without crowding the clean collar line\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChestnut top grain cowhide\u003c\/strong\u003e — a warm burnished finish that deepens at the elbows and zip line as it breaks in, building patina instead of showing wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOne-tone, three-season range\u003c\/strong\u003e — brown-on-brown pairs with indigo denim, olive chinos, and gray knits without a second thought\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGlide-smooth zip front\u003c\/strong\u003e — a slim silver zipper keeps the front placket flat and the silhouette sleek under a coat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare Instructions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis finish rewards patience: small scuffs buff out with a fingertip or a soft cloth, and most will simply blend into the patina over time.
