Kelly Green and Green Varsity Jacket

Two greens in one jacket is a harder trick than two opposites. The Kelly Green and Green Varsity Jacket manages it by putting a bright kelly green melton wool body next to slightly deeper green leather sleeves, so the shades separate without fighting each other. The sheen on the leather does most of the work.

• Body: bright kelly green melton wool, matte and mid-weight
• Sleeves: green genuine cowhide leather, smooth with a low shine
• Trims: ribbed knit collar, cuffs and hem striped in both greens
• Lining: quilted inner layer
• Front: snap-button closure
• Pockets: two side pockets, leather trimmed
• Made to order, cut to your measurements

Photograph it in daylight and the difference between wool and leather is obvious. Indoors the two greens close up and the jacket reads as one solid color, which is a useful trick.
