Originally designed to keep pilots warm in open air cockpits, they can be made in a wide spectrum of materials making them suitable for all seasons. Fabric choice will determine if the look is more utilitarian, glam, or sporty. Varsity jackets are variations of bombers with colorful details such as contrast sleeves, large patches, and embroidery. All these options give you the opportunity to create a personalized garment.

Everyone needs a basic tee in their wardrobe and there?s nothing better when you?ve made it yourself to fit exactly how you like it.
