Raglan Varsity Jacket - Granite Black Wool

Men’s Granite Wool Raglan Varsity Jacket

Built around a distinctive three-tone palette, this men’s raglan varsity jacket combines a heathered Granite wool body, Antique Rust leather sleeves and solid black knitted trim. The contrasting materials preserve the recognizable character of a traditional varsity jacket while the diagonal raglan construction gives the shoulders a smoother, more continuous profile.

The body is made from substantial 16 oz 100% wool milled in the United Kingdom by Abraham Moon & Sons. Antique Rust leather is used across the sleeves, pocket welts, arrow-shaped pocket details and locker loop, creating a warm contrast against the charcoal-gray body. Black ribbing, snap fasteners and quilted lining complete the Granite, Black and Antique Rust color combination.

Raglan Leather Sleeves

Unlike conventional set-in sleeves, raglan sleeves extend from the neckline toward the underarm without a separate shoulder seam. This creates an uninterrupted line across the upper body and gives the jacket a relaxed athletic character.

The Antique Rust leather sleeves are shaped through carefully positioned panels rather than being cut as flat, unstructured tubes. Tonal single-row topstitching follows the raglan seams and sleeve panels, reinforcing the construction while keeping the exterior visually clean. The warm, aged-looking leather tone works naturally with the textured Granite wool and black knitted trim.

16 oz U.K.-Milled Wool Body

The jacket’s Granite body is made from 16 oz 100% wool milled in the U.K. by Abraham Moon & Sons. The fabric has a softly mottled charcoal-gray appearance rather than a completely flat black finish, allowing the natural wool texture to remain visible.

The 16 oz measurement refers to the weight of the wool fabric, not the total weight of the finished jacket. It provides more substance and structure than lightweight fashion wool while remaining suitable for regular cold-weather layering. The clean back panel keeps the textured wool prominent and allows the raglan sleeve lines to define the shoulder shape.

Double-Welt Pockets with Leather Arrow Details

Two angled double-welt pockets are positioned at the lower front for convenient hand placement. Their openings are finished in Antique Rust leather, with stitched triangular tabs at both ends forming the traditional arrow-inspired detailing associated with heritage varsity jackets.

Narrow parallel stitching secures the leather welts, while perimeter stitching defines the arrow-shaped ends. These details give the pockets a structured finish and create a visual connection between the wool body and leather sleeves without overloading the front with additional decoration.

Snap Front and Black Wool Trim

A row of black snap fasteners forms the front closure, maintaining the simple, functional appearance of a classic varsity jacket. The dark hardware blends into the black trim instead of competing with the Granite wool and Antique Rust leather.

The cuffs and waistband use a substantial 2 x 2 knitted structure, providing visible rib definition and a comfortable finish around the wrists and lower body. Wool trim knitted at the Dehen factory is also used around the neckline. The solid black roll collar has no contrasting stripe, giving the jacket a cleaner and more adaptable appearance.

For shoppers considering an all-leather alternative, our men’s leather jacket collection offers additional silhouettes with different weights, finishes and levels of weather coverage.

Black Quilted Satin Interior

Inside, the jacket is finished with a black diamond-quilted satin lining. The smooth surface helps the jacket slide comfortably over shirts, sweatshirts and light knitwear, while the quilting gives the interior a more structured finish.

An interior leather-trimmed welt pocket provides a discreet place for small personal items. The Antique Rust leather locker loop at the neckline adds another practical detail while carrying the exterior color combination into the inside of the jacket.

Fit and Styling

The jacket combines an athletic varsity outline with a more refined heritage color palette. The Granite wool works easily with black, indigo and washed denim, while the Antique Rust sleeves pair naturally with brown or black footwear.

Wear it over a T-shirt during transitional weather or add a sweatshirt or fine-gauge knit when temperatures fall. Because layering changes the amount of room needed through the chest and shoulders, compare your measurements with our jacket size guide before selecting a size.

Care Instructions

A mixed-material jacket requires more careful treatment than a garment made entirely from wool or leather. Brush loose dust from the wool with a soft garment brush and wipe the leather gently with a clean, dry cloth. Do not machine wash, tumble dry or soak the jacket.

For stains or a full seasonal cleaning, use a professional cleaner experienced with both genuine leather and wool garments. Avoid applying leather conditioner to the wool sections, and always test any suitable leather-care product on a hidden area first. Additional maintenance advice is available in our complete leather jacket care guide.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a raglan sleeve?

A raglan sleeve begins at the neckline and continues diagonally toward the underarm instead of attaching at a conventional shoulder seam. This creates a smoother shoulder line and gives the jacket its distinctive athletic shape.

Does 16 oz describe the total jacket weight?

No. The 16 oz specification describes the weight category of the wool fabric, not the finished jacket’s total shipping or garment weight. The final weight also includes the leather sleeves, knitted trim, hardware and quilted lining.

Can this varsity jacket be worn in the rain?

The jacket is not described as waterproof. Light, brief moisture should be blotted promptly, but prolonged rain can mark the leather and affect the wool. Allow a damp jacket to dry naturally away from direct heat.

How should I choose a size if I plan to wear a hoodie underneath?

Measure your chest while wearing a layer similar to the one you intend to use with the jacket. Compare that measurement with the size chart and leave enough room for comfortable movement without making the waistband excessively loose.

How should the jacket be stored?

Place it on a broad, supportive hanger to help maintain the raglan shoulder shape. Store it in a cool, dry and ventilated space, preferably under a breathable garment cover rather than sealed plastic.

Will the Antique Rust leather change with wear?

Genuine leather can gradually develop natural creasing and subtle tonal variation in areas that move frequently. Proper storage and occasional professional care help the sleeves age evenly while preserving their smooth finish.

How should the wool body be cleaned between professional treatments?

Use a soft clothes brush to lift surface dust and lint, brushing gently in one direction. Small dry particles should be removed before they settle into the wool; avoid rubbing stains with water or household cleaning products.
