College jackets exude nostalgic “back to school” vibes and are fashionable and practical it-pieces for everyday wear. The fashion community always gives the popular college jacket top marks. No wonder, as it can be worn in a variety of combinations. Casual with a sporty outfit or as a style statement with an elegant look.
Contrary to what the name suggests, the college jacket does not have its roots in American high school – but in its “big brother”, the university. In fact, the jacket originated from the elite Harvard University in the USA. Starting in 1865, the best players on the baseball team received a college jacket. At first, the right and honor to wear this type of jacket was therefore limited to a small number of students. That is, until designers around the world took a liking to the multifunctional style. The fashion era of the college jacket began – and has never stopped. No surprise, because it is practical, fashionable and adds a cool finish to any outfit. But what makes this design so special?
A college jacket is a type of sports jacket that has a cut similar to that of a bomber jacket. It is made of soft fabric and features contrasting color (faux) leather sleeves. Logos and patches give the jacket a casual vintage vibe, as do ribbed cuffs at the collar, hips and sleeves.
In the past, the college jacket was designed for men. Today, fashionistas swear by the casual design and make a fashion statement with styles in eye-catching colors like green, blue and red. Instead of university initials, brand logos often adorn the back and chest of newer styles. Most importantly, the jacket comes in a range of materials – from a shiny satin look to a leather college jacket, there’s something for every style.
This versatility also makes the iconic jacket easy to combine. Preppy today, cool tomorrow. You will definitely pass the fashion test of suitability with this cool model – and here’s how.
College jackets for women can be worn in the spirit of the original design as athleisure wear, but they are equally popular in contrasting style outfits. Pair your favorite one with Nike sneakers, an oversize sweater and skinny jeans. Easily create an elegant look with a cool twist by styling a college jacket with a pencil skirt and a chic blouse or a feminine wrap dressand rough biker boots.
For men, similar rules apply: combine the jacket in an edgy way with casual, rolled-up pants, high-top sneakers and a sweatshirt with statement print. If you want something more elegant, how about an all-black look with black suit trousers and a matching turtleneck for men.
Baseball jackets – as they are also called because of their origin – are available in styles ranging from clean to avant-garde. As well as luxury brands such as Gucci, Givenchy and Burberry, sporty college jackets from Nike, adidas, Tommy Hilfiger and Lacoste are also popular.
