A varsity jacket reimagined with Schott’s signature quality manufacturing

The LCTEDDYBD BLACK BLACK is not just another teddy jacket—it’s a modern take on the classic American varsity style, blending the rugged elegance of leather with the timeless warmth of wool. Schott NYC, a name synonymous with heritage outerwear, has crafted this piece to bridge the gap between sporty collegiate aesthetics and urban sophistication. The result? A jacket that feels as at home on a city street as it does on a campus quad.

Leather and wool: a marriage of durability and comfort

The body of the jacket is made from a rich wool blend (68% wool, 17% polyester, 12% nylon, and 3% acrylic), offering a soft yet structured feel that drapes effortlessly. The sleeves, however, are where this jacket truly stands out—crafted from full-grain cowhide leather, they add a touch of toughness to the otherwise cosy design. The contrast between the two materials isn’t just visual; it’s functional, too. The wool provides warmth and breathability, while the leather reinforces the jacket’s shape and longevity.

Thoughtful details for everyday wear

Schott hasn’t overlooked the finer points. The jacket features a zippered closure beneath a snap-button placket, ensuring both security and style. Two lower pockets offer practical storage, while two internal pockets keep your essentials safe and out of sight. The ribbed cuffs, collar, and hem aren’t just decorative—they help trap heat and maintain the jacket’s shape over time. And let’s not forget the embroidered chest logo and leather patches on the sleeves, nods to the varsity tradition that inspired this piece.

A versatile silhouette for all seasons

With its regular fit, the LCTEDDYBD BLACK BLACK is designed to flatter a variety of body types. The wool body makes it ideal for cooler weather, while the leather sleeves add a layer of protection against the elements. It’s a jacket that transitions seamlessly from autumn to spring, pairing just as well with jeans and trainers as it does with chinos and boots. Whether you’re layering it over a hoodie for a casual look or throwing it on over a shirt for something more polished, this piece adapts to your style.

Schott NYC is a name that carries weight in the world of outerwear. Founded in 1928 by brothers Irving and Jack Schott, the brand is credited with creating the first leather motorcycle jacket—the iconic Perfecto. Over the decades, Schott has become a byword for quality, durability, and timeless design. Their pieces are built to last, blending American quality manufacturing with a deep understanding of how people actually wear their clothes. From biker jackets to varsity-inspired designs, Schott’s creations are as much about function as they are about style.
