Cream and Sky Blue Varsity Jacket

Cream and sky blue is a low-contrast pairing, and that is deliberate. Neither color shouts, so the eye reads the shape of the jacket before the colorway. The cream melton wool body carries most of the surface; the sky blue leather sleeves add just enough cool tone to keep the Cream and Sky Blue Varsity Jacket from looking plain.

• Body: cream melton wool, mid-weight with a flat surface
• Sleeves: sky blue cowhide leather, pale and supple
• Trims: rib-knit collar, cuffs and waistband banded in both colors
• Closure: snap-button front
• Lining: quilted interior
• Pockets: two front pockets, leather edged
• Sizing: cut and stitched to order

Where a red or black sleeve would dominate, sky blue steps back. That makes this the version to buy if you want a varsity jacket you can wear on an ordinary Tuesday.
