Dark Blue Varsity Jacket

Dark Blue Varsity Jacket

The Dark Blue Varsity Jacket is the safest possible choice in the range, and that is meant as a recommendation. Dark blue is the colour most men already build a wardrobe around, so a varsity jacket in it slots into what you own rather than sitting apart from it.

• Material: Two-tone body and sleeves with ribbed knit trim
• Fit: Regular fit
• Closure: Front snap buttons
• Color: Dark blue
• Care: Brush and spot clean, dry naturally away from heat

Why dark blue is the default for a reason

Dark blue does something black does not: it works with brown shoes, tan accessories and warm-toned clothing as readily as with grey and white. Black restricts you to cool tones without looking deliberate.

It is also more forgiving in daylight. Black outerwear in bright sun can look flat and heavy; a deep blue keeps some depth and reads softer against skin.

The varsity construction

Ribbed knit collar, cuffs and hem, and a snap front placket. Knit seals the openings so warm air stays in without a heavy lining; snaps lie flat against the placket and open one-handed. Both details are functional in origin.

The two-tone split is what identifies the shape as varsity rather than a plain bomber. In a dark colourway it reads as a design line rather than as team colours.

Fit, comfort and styling

Regular fit with room for a knit or hoodie underneath at your usual size — that layering room is what the shape was designed for. Rib hem at the waist. Size down one for a closer fit over a tee.

The only combination to watch is blue denim of a similar depth. Keep jeans clearly lighter or clearly darker and everything else — grey, white, cream, tan, black — works.
