Royal Blue and Brown Letterman Jacket

Cold mornings are where melton wool earns its reputation. The Royal Blue and Brown Letterman Jacket is heavy in the hand and warmer than it looks: a royal blue wool body, brown leather sleeves with substance to them, and a quilted lining that holds heat close instead of letting it escape through the weave.

• Body Material: royal blue melton wool, heavyweight and dense
• Sleeves: brown genuine cowhide leather, thick and supple
• Lining: quilted for insulation in deep winter
• Trims: rib-knit collar, cuffs and waistband, snug at the edges
• Closure: snap-button placket, no fiddly fastenings
• Pockets: two side pockets to get your hands out of the air
• Sizing: cut to order with space for a sweater

Worth having from November onward, and short enough that it does not fight with a bag strap. Royal blue stays vivid in flat winter light, when most colors go dull.
