So what if I didn\u2019t go to school in America, have a name that starts with M or stepped foot into a classroom in over a decade.\u00a0When it comes to classic old school\u00a0Americana, the varsity jacket sits at the head of the class and I can\u2019t get mine off my back. Never mind the sporty history, \u00a0there\u2019s no need for\u00a0hand eye co-ordination when rocking these jackets.\u00a0\u00a0Whether you\u2019ve earned your letter or just want to feel retro-cool, these athletically inclined beauties are perfect for bringing a fun sporty feel to your look.<\/h2>\n

I\u2019m literally obsessed with the bomber trend but adding an Americana vintage twist sets Varsity Jackets apart from the rest.\u00a0Just choose your team colours and you\u2019re good to go!<\/p>\n

From classic, leather-sleeved bombers to \u00a0printed and\u00a0quilted, old-fashioned letterman styles will add just the right amounts of prep and edge to any getup. \u00a0And, remember: You\u2019re totally part of the cool crowd \u2014 with or without the jacket, of course.<\/p>\n

Back then, these school staples had to be earned, so wearing one has always been a point of pride. Now, you can incorporate these retro-chic cover ups into your current wardrobe without jumping hurdles or scoring goals. I\u2019ve seen some incredible vintage styles in shops like Beyond Retro or even eBay, but I did it the old fashioned way and stole this one from my boyfriend. He may be a few years past soccer star, but damn the boy has taste!\u00a0From classic, leather-sleeved and patched to printed Varsity\u00a0styles have certainly earned their stripes in the style stakes.
