Letterman Jacket Styles — Classic Letter / Baseball / College Jacket Options
Our patterns retain the classic letterman balance: wool melton body, leather or PU sleeves, striped rib knit, snap front, and slash pockets with leather trim. We also produce baseball jacket and college jacket variants (raglan or set‑in sleeve, paneled yokes, interior pocket sets) while keeping award‑program proportions. Optional hooded or quilt‑lined versions support colder seasons. All patterns prioritize easy decoration zones for chenille, embroidery and tackle twill.
Letterman Jacket Materials & Trims — Wool Melton, Leather Sleeves & Striped Rib Knit
Nylon flight satin delivers the iconic gloss and drape of MA‑1. Taslan/microfiber offers a matte hand with balanced abrasion and easier printability. Ripstop reads more technical/outdoor.
Leather/PU brings A‑2 heritage character (grain and finish selectable). Rib knit choices (1×1 / 2×2) are color‑matched; heights tuned for silhouette control (classic vs boxy vs cropped).
Hardware sets include YKK zippers, color‑matched snaps, reversible pulls, and storm flaps. Surface finishing options: DWR for water resistance, PU/AC coatings for handle, and garment dye on selected shells.We pre‑test pilling, seam slippage, colorfastness, zipper cycle and snap pull under an AQL plan to ensure daily durability.

Letterman Jacket Lining, Insulation and Protection
Quilted taffeta (60–120 GSM) suits 3‑season wear. Down‑alternative adds loft without feather leakage and keeps the bomber profile crisp. Mesh/tricot linings reduce weight for L‑2B‑style shells. For heritage cues, orange reverse linings echo historic rescue visibility. We stabilize lining at stress points and tune quilting pitch to avoid cold spots and keep a clean interior.See Lining & Quilting Options
Letterman Jacket Construction Options — Reversible, Hybrid and Special Builds
Reversible bombers use dual‑pull zippers, clean seam finishes, and clever label solutions so both faces stay premium. Colorways: classic sage - orange, or black- neutral for fashion lines. Print/embroidery is mapped for both faces to avoid telegraphing. Fabric selection considers hand feel and bulk to keep silhouette sharp either way.See Letterman Capabilities
Letterman Jacket Branding & Private Label Options
We support screen print, DTF/heat transfer, embroidery, appliqué, and bonded logos. On coated nylon we specify low‑temperature ink systems and pre‑cure tests to avoid cracking. Private label packs (care/woven labels, hangtags, barcodes) can be color‑matched to shell and rib. Licensing: we do not reproduce protected military insignia or trademarks without authorization.Explore Letterman Branding Options
Letterman Jacket Fits & Size Spec — Classic, Boxy and Oversized
A letterman jacket must feel right whether it is worn over a hoodie on campus or styled with denim for a lookbook. We typically develop three core fit blocks: a classic regular fit with moderate room through body and sleeves, a boxy or relaxed fit with dropped shoulders, and an oversized or cropped fit tuned for fashion-forward collections. Neck width, rib tension and sleeve volume are adjusted to your brand's preference.
Our grading is based on Western size standards for US and EU markets.Request Letterman Size Spec
Letterman Jacket Pricing & Minimums
For letterman jacket production, our minimum order quantities typically start from 100 pieces per color and style, with flexibility to mix sizes within that total. Special materials, unique color blocking or highly customized decorations may require higher or separate minimums, which we will outline clearly in your quotation.
Main pricing drivers include shell and sleeve materials (e.g. wool blends versus alternative fabrics, PU versus genuine leather), level of insulation, number and complexity of patches and embroideries, customized ribs and hardware, and any special constructions or packaging. To quote accurately, we recommend sharing your tech pack or references, expected order volumes, target retail and margin so we can position the build where it works for your brand.Request Letterman Pricing Matrix

FAQs — Letterman Jacket Manufacturing
- What does your production and quality control process look like for letterman jackets?We start by aligning on your goals, then confirm the base silhouette, materials, trims and decoration map. A pre-production sample is made with correct patches and lining for your approval. During bulk, our QC team checks key points such as sewing, snaps and measurements, then carries out an AQL final inspection so the jackets arrive consistent and ready for distribution.
- How should schools or brands prepare information before placing a letterman jacket order?Before we quote or start sampling, it helps to confirm your school colors, body and sleeve materials, rib stripe layout and hardware finish. A simple spreadsheet with student names, sizes, sports and award levels lets us place patches and embroidery accurately. If you already have previous jackets, photos or tech packs, sharing them ensures the new batch matches your existing program.
- What is your MOQ, sampling time and typical lead time for letterman jackets?For letterman programs our standard MOQ is around 100 pcs per color and style, with size mixing allowed inside the order. Once details and materials are confirmed, sampling is typically 7–10 days. Bulk delivery time is set according to order volume and decoration level, and we share a clear schedule so you can plan award ceremonies or season launches.
- What fits and size ranges can you provide for letterman jacket programs?Letterman jackets have to fit over hoodies and team layers, so we maintain several fit blocks from classic campus fit to relaxed or oversized silhouettes. Our grading follows US/EU size expectations and we can create special runs if you need extended or youth sizing. This keeps your team photos consistent while still giving students room to move.
- How warm are your letterman jackets and what lining options do you offer?For temperate regions we usually use a smooth or brushed lining without heavy fill, which keeps the jacket comfortable indoors and outdoors. Where more warmth is needed, we add quilted taffeta or down-alternative insulation with different GSM levels so you can match your local climate and uniform policy.
- What decoration and personalization options are available on your letterman jackets?Our team can place chenille chest letters, shoulder or back patches, tackle twill numbers and script names according to your layout. Personalization lists for student names, sports, positions and grad years are handled in bulk so each jacket ships finished and ready to wear. We help balance decoration density with cost and weight so the jacket still feels comfortable.
