Custom Varsity Jackets? Here’s the Honest Guide You Need

If you’re reading this, chances are you’ve got an idea for a varsity jacket—and now you’re trying to figure out how to actually make it happen. Maybe it’s for your team. Maybe your school. Or maybe you’re starting a clothing line and want to do it right. Whatever brought you here, welcome.

At Jacket Authority, we’ve helped all kinds of people create jackets from scratch. You don’t need to know design software or speak fashion lingo—we’re here to make the process simple and personal. Let’s walk through it.

What’s the Jacket For? Start There.

This part matters more than people think. A school team might want something classic. A brand might go bold. A graduation gift? Something heartfelt. Once you know the purpose, the design choices come naturally.

Choose the Feel: Heavy or Light? Classic or Modern?

Traditional varsity jackets are made with wool bodies and leather sleeves. But that’s just one option. We also offer satin, cotton fleece, and vegan leather. Want something soft and flexible? We’ll guide you. Looking for that old-school heavyweight feel? We’ve got that too.

The Design Part: Easier Than You Expect

You don’t have to be a designer. Pick your base color, sleeve color, and trim style. Then the fun stuff—add names, numbers, patches, logos, or even inside tags with messages. We’ll help you visualize everything and suggest what works.

Don’t Stress the Sizing—We’re Here for That Too

We get a lot of “What if it doesn’t fit?” questions. No worries—we’ve got a full size range and simple charts. And if you’re still unsure, we’ll talk it through. No guesswork, no regrets.

Once You Approve the Design, We Get Rolling

Production usually takes around 2 to 3 weeks. We’ll keep you posted, send tracking when it ships, and stay available in case you have questions. You’ll never feel like you’re left in the dark.

What Makes Jacket Authority Different?

We’re not a mass-production shop cranking out one-size-fits-all designs. We take our time. We ask questions. We make sure it feels like your Varsity Jacket —not just a jacket. That’s the difference.
