Worldwide acclaimed garments usually arise from a real need. That is what happened with bomber jackets: those military gears were originally conceived to replace the heavy leather jackets used by aviators during World War II, and provide them with a lighter and more breathable alternative. The first prototype was unveiled in 1949 and went by the name of MA-1 jacket: contemporary bomber jackets still use the same structure of this iconic reversible jacket, featuring a waterproof nylon outer layer with a cord collar, containing an eye-grabbing lining to allow aviators to report an emergency in case of crash. Military clothing producer Alpha Industries was the first brand to understand the potential of bomber jackets, while the first model created by a full-fledged streetwear brand came by the English camouflage maestro Maharishi. Bomber and varsity jackets share a similar path: they were originally conceived for a niche audience, and they both turned into street clothing staples. More specifically, hip hop was the first subculture to use varsity jackets off the pitch, also because music and sport have a special relationship in the USA. Athletes and rappers started adding embroideries and twill patches to their jackets, an established habit that many street brands carry on by producing custom made satin jackets and college outerwear. Our varsity offering is really diverse as it encompasses casually-styled models alongside sportswear brands Mitchell & Ness and New Era, which keep American sport tradition alive through warm-up jackets and vintage NBA jackets dedicated to popular teams – Lakers, Celtics, Bulls, Warriors, Knicks. Skate brands Stüssy, Obey and Huf manufacture cotton twill and corduroy varsity jackets provided with loud printing and bold patches, while models from American lifestyle brands such as Tommy Jeans and Calvin Klein follow a more preppy aesthetic, and Nike varsities are halfway between technical sport outerwear and a casual jacket. Thanks to their unmatched popularity and the ease of customizing, varsity and college jackets are often the prime piece of streetwear collaborations.


What to wear with a varsity jacket?

Varsity jackets were originally sportswear garments worn by the athletes of college sports teams – basket, football, tennis, volleyball and more. They were an integral part of athletes’ uniforms, which also included logo hoodies, sweatpants and a pair of sneakers. A combination that is still a thing: varsity jackets are usually made of soft cotton or corduroy and they’re insanely versatile when it comes down to styling. SPECTRUM offering counts basic varsities with tonal detailing, elaborate models with leather sleeves and tons of embroideries, so it basically depends on your style. More specifically, college and satin jackets have always been coveted all-around gears that can be worn with the classic hoodie and jeans combination, as well as matched with a plain white T-shirt and some chinos.

Where to buy varsity jackets?

SPECTRUM offers a wide variety of varsity and college jackets including many different basic varsities from casual brands such as Champions, as well as merchandise and celebrative outerwear models dedicated to worldwide famous sport teams. SPECTRUM also counts a number of alternative varsity jackets, including models with leather sleeves instead of cotton, all-over printing and bold logo graphics here and there. Along with the latest streetwear drops, SPECTRUM provides a weekly updated lineup of discounted jackets which includes must-have models from Nike, Alpha Industries, Alpha Industries and more.

Which is the original bomber jacket?

The first bomber jacket ever produced was dubbed MA-1 jacket, a flight jacket inspired by those used by aviators during World War II. Launched right after the war ended, this model was intended to replace the heavy leather jackets used by pilots until then, since the old military outerwear was too big and bulky for high-altitude effort. The MA-1 military jacket is a reversible bomber with a bright inner lining that served to be spotted from great distance in case of emergency. Alpha Industries still uses the same structure for its worldwide acclaimed flight jackets, maintaining a series of OG details like the wool collar, elasticated cuffs, double side pockets, the signature orange inner padding and the typical bomber fit, tight on the waist and looser near to shoulders and chest.
