Black and Red Varsity Jacket

Straight-leg jeans, white sneakers, a plain tee - that is the whole outfit, and the Black and Red Varsity Jacket carries it. The black melton wool body keeps the bottom half simple while red cowhide leather sleeves do the talking. Leave it unsnapped over a hoodie and the striped ribbing shows at the collar and cuffs.

• Body: black melton wool, dense enough to hold its shape
• Sleeves: red genuine cowhide leather, smooth and supple
• Lining: quilted interior, warm without bulk
• Front: snap-button placket
• Ribbing: striped knit collar, cuffs and waistband in red and black
• Pockets: two side entry, leather trimmed
• Sizing: cut to your measurements

Red and black is the easiest loud combination to wear daily. Works over gym shorts in September and over a sweater by December, which is most of what a jacket needs to do.
