Size: Unknown (Fits approximately Men’s Medium/Large – see measurements below)
Condition: Great vintage condition. The wool body remains rich and structured with vibrant golden yellow leather shoulder panels. Minor wear consistent with age but overall beautifully preserved.
Description:
Classic vintage varsity jacket from West Hempstead featuring bold golden yellow chain-stitched lettering across the back and a striking tennis racquet patch with “Bob” embroidered on the front chest. This piece captures the authentic spirit of mid-century American athletic wear.
Constructed with a heavyweight wool body and contrasting golden yellow leather shoulder panels, the jacket also features striped ribbed cuffs and waistband in matching school colors. The sleeves include a varsity star patch and “VC” lettering, giving the jacket strong visual character from every angle.
The back is the true showpiece, showcasing oversized script lettering spelling West Hempstead, executed in traditional varsity chain-stitch embroidery. Interior tag reads Huntley’s – Tailored by Landmass, a label often associated with mid-century school athletic garments.
