Women's Varsity Jackets

Women’s Varsity Jacket For Everyday Wardrobe

A women’s varsity jacket is a sporty jacket with a wool body, contrasting sleeves, snap buttons and ribbed edges. Its bold color and material combinations give it a different look from a regular leather jacket.

The Leather City’s varsity jacket for women collection offers multiple options. The best part is they are versatile; you don’t need a whole new wardrobe – they work with what you already have. 

You can style it with jeans, casual trousers, skirts and simple tops. Add sneakers and you’re all set for everyday plans, or boots for a smarter look.

What Goes Into Our Women’s Varsity Jacket

The mix of fabric, lining and small details affects how your ladies varsity jacket looks and feels. Here is what we have for you:

The Shell Material

Wool gives the body a warm feel and the leather adds a smooth contrast to the design. These materials give you a sporty look that works well for everyday wear.

Leather Grade

Our real leather options use sheepskin in top-grain grade. This type of leather comes from the outer layer of the hide, with its surface refined for a smooth, neat finish. It offers a useful balance of strength and a clean look.

Weight and Lining

Most pieces weigh around 1.0 to 1.3 pounds, depending on the size, fabric, and design. The viscose lining feels smooth inside and helps the clothing piece slide on with ease.

Snaps, Ribbing and Stitching

The snap-button closure makes it easy to put on and take off your outerwear. Rib-knitted collars and cuffs add a snug finish and give the jacket its varsity shape. Strong and secure seams hold the different panels together for regular wear.

Find a Color That Feels Like You

The right color can make your varsity jacket women’s style easier to match with your everyday clothes. Here are a few options to help you choose.

Orange and Black Jacket

This standout outerwear comes with a black body and fun graphic details. Layer it over black jeans for college, casual outings or weekend plans.

Red and White Jacket

A red body, white sleeves and striped trims give this jacket a bright, sporty look. Wear it for shopping trips, lunch with friends or a relaxed day around town.

Blue and White Jacket

This fresh color mix pairs well with jeans and white sneakers. It is a good choice for campus days, casual walks or weekend plans when you want a clean, sporty outfit.

Cream and Brown Jacket

A cream body, brown sleeves and dark trims create a softer look. This style works well for coffee dates, casual lunches or daytime meetups with friends.

Find The Best Fit

The right varsity jacket for women should feel comfortable across your shoulders and chest; sleeves should reach your wrists. Use your body measurements to choose your size instead of relying on the size you usually buy. The fit can vary by design, so check the chart before placing your order.

Measure around the fullest part of your bust, across your shoulders and from your shoulder to your wrist. For the waist, measure around your natural waist.

Ready-to-wear orders take about 8-10 working days to be delivered to your doorstep. 

Choose a larger size if you fall between the sizes, plan to wear a thick sweater underneath or prefer extra room. Custom sizing is available and usually takes 2-6 weeks, depending on the details and other factors.

Simple Care for Your Leather Jacket

• Use a soft clothes brush to remove dust and loose dirt from the wool body. A lint roller can help remove lint.
• Dampen a clean cloth with cool water and a little wool-safe detergent. Dab gently, then remove soap with a clean, damp cloth.
• Clean the dust and light dirt using a soft, dry cloth or leather brush.
• Use a leather cleaner made for sheepskin when deeper cleaning is needed.
• Apply a suitable leather conditioner every 3-6 months to help prevent the leather from drying out and cracking.
• Wipe away moisture with a clean, soft towel. Let the jacket air-dry naturally.
• If a women’s varsity jacket has an unwanted odor due to daily wear, hang it in a well-ventilated room.
• Store it in a cool, dry place inside a breathable garment bag.
• Hang your outerwear on a wide, sturdy hanger to help keep its shape.
• Take deep stains or major damage to a professional leather cleaner.

FAQs

Are these varsity jackets heavy?

Not at all. The weight depends on the materials, size, lining and design. A jacket with a wool body and leather sleeves may feel different from a lightweight fabric version. Check the product details if weight matters to you, especially if you plan to wear it for long periods.

What is the difference between a varsity jacket and a letterman jacket?

A varsity jacket and a letterman jacket are two names for almost the same style. Both often have a button front, ribbed collar and cuffs and contrasting sleeves. The name ‘letterman’ comes from the tradition of wearing a school or team letter, such as “H” or “NYC”.

Are these jackets made from real leather?

Yes, they are. Check the product details before buying to know which material you are getting. At The Leather City, our varsity jackets combine leather sleeves with a wool body for a mix of textures and warmth.

How should a varsity leather jacket fit?

The jacket should feel comfortable around the shoulders and chest without pulling when you stretch your arms. The sleeves should reach your wrists and the ribbed hem should sit comfortably at your waist. To get the right size, check the size chart before buying or speak to one of our customer support agents.

Should I size up in a women’s varsity jacket?

Not really. Size up only if you want a roomier fit, fall between sizes or plan on wearing a thick underneath layer. If you prefer a closer fit with a tee or light top, get your regular size. The best fit is your actual size.

Are varsity jackets still in style?

Yes, varsity jackets are still very much in style. They work especially well with sporty, casual outfits. Color-blocked sleeves, striped trims and bold colors give them a trendier look that is easy to carry. Style them with jeans and sneakers or balance them with simple trousers and ankle boots.
