A varsity jacket with a rebellious twist

The Schott LC8705 in green and beige is not just another varsity jacket—it’s a modern reinterpretation of a classic American style, blending the warmth of wool with the rugged elegance of leather. The body is crafted from a rich green wool blend (70% wool, 30% nylon or polyester), while the sleeves feature smooth, supple vachetta leather in a soft beige tone. This dual-material construction gives it a distinctive look that bridges sporty heritage and urban sophistication.

Built for comfort and durability

Designed with practicality in mind, this jacket features a full-length zip closure protected by a snap-button placket, shielding you from the wind while adding a structured silhouette. The rib-knit cuffs, collar, and hem ensure a snug fit that retains warmth without sacrificing mobility. Inside, two pockets offer secure storage, while the outer pockets provide easy access—ideal for everyday carry. The vachetta leather sleeves, known for their durability and natural patina, will soften and develop character over time, making each wear uniquely yours.

A versatile piece for year-round wear

Weighing in at 2 kg, this jacket strikes a balance between warmth and wearability, making it suitable for autumn and spring layers, or even winter with the right undergarments. The regular fit allows for layering over jumpers or under heavier coats when needed. Whether paired with jeans and trainers for a casual day out or dressed up with a shirt for an evening, the LC8705 adapts effortlessly to your style. The discreet Schott NYC logo on the front and the bold contrast logo on the back add subtle branding, nodding to the brand’s heritage without overpowering the design.

Schott is an American institution, founded in 1928 by brothers Irving and Jack Schott. The brand is credited with creating the first leather motorcycle jacket, the iconic Perfecto, in 1928—a design that would later become a symbol of rebellion and counterculture. Over the decades, Schott has expanded its expertise to include a wide range of outerwear, from bombers to varsity jackets, all crafted with the same commitment to quality and durability. The LC8705 is a testament to Schott’s ability to reinvent classic styles while staying true to its roots in quality manufacturing and functionality.
