Olive Green and Orange Varsity Jacket

Cold gets in at the neck, the wrists and the waist, which is where the ribbed knit on this jacket sits. Behind that, the Olive Green and Orange Varsity Jacket has an olive green melton wool body and orange cowhide leather sleeves, both heavy enough to stand up to a February morning with a quilted lining underneath.

• Body: olive green melton wool, heavyweight
• Sleeves: orange genuine cowhide, thick and smooth
• Lining: quilted from shoulder to hem
• Trims: rib-knit collar, cuffs and waistband
• Closure: snap-button placket that shuts tight
• Pockets: two deep front pockets
• Sizing: made to order with layering room

Melton wool has been the standard cold-weather cloth for two centuries because it holds heat when damp. The orange sleeves are a bonus on dark winter mornings when nobody is looking where they walk.
