Neighbour x Golden Bear Varsity Jackets

December 12, 2011


Still looking for a varsity jacket? How does a slim-fit Golden Bear for sub-$250 sound? Yeah, I think you can call your search off too. The details: designed in Vancouver. Made in San Fransisco. Heavy-duty wool body. Leather accents. Stand-up collar. Two slant pockets on the hips. One chest pocket on the inside. And a quilted lining, so you can wear it all winter long. Three styles are available (one all-wool, one wool with leather sleeves, and one open-bottom), and at that price, it’s a pretty safe bet they won’t be around for long.

For price and purchase info, visit Neighbour.

    Any suggestions on where I could pick up a varsity jacket for less money?

    Some more affordable US-made options here:

    But the fit isn’t going to be anywhere near as slim as the Golden Bears.

    There are also plenty of good deals on eBay:

    Lots more where those came from.

    Of course, there are non US-made options out there too. But I’ll let you find those on your own.

    Thanks,
