Varsity jackets are back on the map, and with the backing of actor Bradley Cooper, they are set to be a surefire hit for SS25.
Spotted strolling through the streets of New York on Wednesday, the Hollywood heavyweight layered up in a statement piece by Roots of Fight - one of his go-to outerwear garments.
The stand-out varsity jacket blended classic collegiate style with modern edge. The sporty garment featured a traditional cut: boxy, slightly cropped, and structured at the shoulders with a ribbed collar, cuffs, and hem. The body was crafted made from light blue wool, while the sleeves are contrasting white leather - true to vintage letterman design.

The right sleeve sports a large red ‘3’ patch, while the left has additional graphics and stars, adding a playful yet rugged flair.
Underneath, a light blue shirt coolly peaked out, layered over a black undershirt, giving the look a relaxed street-style balance.

This isn’t the first time we’ve spotted Bradley in a varsity jacket - in fact, far from.
Back in February, the silver screen icon took his seven-year-old daughter, Lea De Seine, to the Super Bowl to watch the game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles.
Safe to say, he was one proud father as he and Lea donned matching Eagles jackets.
The award-winning actor and director layered up in the dark apple green piece, which featured ribbed cuffs, an all-over sheen and the club’s logo embroidered on the left side of the jacket.
