Now reimagined for modern wardrobes, the LSE Varsity Jacket blends this rich heritage with contemporary style. The varsity jacket traces its origins to Harvard University in 1865, where baseball players were awarded monogrammed sweaters to recognise outstanding performance. By the early 20th century, this tradition evolved into the iconic wool-and-leather jacket silhouette we recognise today. Rising to cultural prominence in the 1950s and 1960s, the varsity jacket became synonymous with youthful identity and campus life, immortalised in films such as Grease and Rebel Without a Cause. In the decades that followed, it was embraced by music and streetwear culture, further cementing its status as a global fashion staple. While still awarded in some schools and universities to recognise student accomplishment, the varsity jacket has evolved far beyond its original purpose. Today, it is celebrated for its timeless design, cultural significance, and versatility—seamlessly transitioning from heritage sportswear to everyday style. From campus to city streets, the LSE Varsity Jacket embodies this legacy. At its core, it remains a statement of achievement and individuality—whether worn as a mark of pride, a nod to tradition, or a bold expression of personal style. a { text-decoration: none; color: #464feb; } tr th, tr td { border: 1px solid #e6e6e6; } tr th { background-color: #f5f5f5; } Product Description Combining heritage style with everyday comfort, the LSE Varsity Jacket is crafted for both warmth and versatility.
