Purple Varsity Jacket, Cropped Satin

Purple Varsity Jacket, Cropped Satin

Purple satin covers the entire body of this jacket, cropped at the waist with a white-and-purple ribbed knit trimming the collar, cuffs, and waistband. A full snap-button placket closes the front, and two slant welt pockets sit at the hip. The satin catches light with a visible sheen, giving the color more depth up close than a matte wool or cotton twill jacket would show in the same shade.

Most varsity jackets split the body and sleeves into two contrasting colors or materials. This one doesn't — sleeves, body, and back are all the same purple satin, with only the ribbed knit trim breaking up the color. That tonal, single-color construction reads cleaner and more monochrome than the color-blocked styles the varsity silhouette usually comes in.

Specifications

Fit & Sizing

Fitted through the shoulder and cropped at the waist, so the hem sits higher than a standard-length jacket and layers naturally over high-rise bottoms.

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

True to size keeps the waistband sitting right at the natural waist; size up if you want room to layer a thin sweater underneath. Line up your shoulder and bust measurements with the size chart first — a single-tone satin jacket like this shows a loose or tight fit more clearly than a color-blocked one does.

Why This Jacket

• One color, head to cuff — tonal purple satin construction instead of the usual contrast-sleeve varsity look
• Real satin sheen — catches light and adds depth to the purple that a matte fabric can't
• Cropped proportions — shorter body and higher waistband built to sit at the natural waist
• Letterman details, kept intact — ribbed collar, cuffs, and waistband trim in purple and white
• Full snap-button placket — quick on, quick off, no fumbling with buttons

Care Instructions

Satin scorches easily under direct heat, so if this jacket wrinkles, never press it with a hot iron directly on the fabric — use the lowest heat setting with a pressing cloth in between, or steam it from a few inches away instead. Direct high heat can leave a shiny, faded patch that won't come out.
