[WARE HOUSE "Lot.2229" 1970’S VARSITY AWARD JACKET]
This award jacket has a wool melton body and leather sleeves.
Varsity jackets, which were allowed to be worn by football, baseball, and basketball players at prestigious universities before the war, became more common as award jackets made as graduation gifts, mainly at high schools on the West Coast in the 1970s.
Many high school students choose to play different sports in spring and summer and fall and winter, so letter decorations are more abundant than at universities.
The thick chenille unique to the 1970s and the elegant chain stitching in the style of bowling shirts are probably the reason why this jacket is called a "letterman jacket" among Americans.
This product also has a 100% wool body (yarn-dyed dobby melton), and cowhide leather is used for the outer sleeves and pocket openings, making it a professional product.
The full lettering gives it an outstanding presence.
This is a very high-quality product filled with WARE HOUSE's commitment and Japanese-made technology.
*The sleeves of this product are made of leather.
