Men's Jacket Schott LC8705 GREY/BLACK
Product Description
A varsity jacket reimagined with the rugged elegance of leather
The LC8705 GREY/BLACK from Schott NYC is not just another varsity jacket—it’s a fusion of classic American collegiate style and the timeless appeal of leather. This piece takes the iconic teddy jacket silhouette, traditionally crafted in wool, and elevates it with sleek black leather sleeves. The result is a blouson that balances sporty heritage with a touch of sophistication, making it a versatile addition to any wardrobe.
Wool and leather: a marriage of textures
The body of the LC8705 is made from 100% wool, offering warmth and a soft, structured drape. The sleeves, however, are where this jacket truly stands out. Crafted from full-grain cowhide leather, they bring a sleek, slightly glossy finish that contrasts beautifully with the matte wool. The leather is supple yet durable, designed to age gracefully while maintaining its shape and character over time.
Thoughtful details for everyday wear
Schott has paid close attention to the practicalities of this jacket. The rib-knit collar, cuffs, and hem provide a snug fit, sealing in warmth without sacrificing comfort. A full-length zipper, concealed beneath a snap-button placket, ensures easy wear, while two lower pockets and two internal pockets offer ample storage. The back of the jacket features the Schott NYC logo, embroidered in a subtle yet recognisable nod to the brand’s heritage. The regular cut is designed to flatter all body types, making it a universally adaptable piece.
A jacket for all seasons
While wool and leather might suggest a heavyweight garment, the LC8705 is surprisingly versatile. The wool body provides insulation during cooler months, while the leather sleeves add a layer of protection against wind and light rain. In milder weather, it can be worn open as a lightweight layer, making it suitable for year-round wear. Whether you’re dressing it up with tailored trousers or keeping it casual with jeans, this jacket adapts effortlessly to any setting.
Schott NYC is a name synonymous with American outerwear heritage. Founded in 1928 by brothers Irving and Jack Schott, the brand is credited with creating the first leather motorcycle jacket—the iconic Perfecto—in 1928. Over the decades, Schott has expanded its repertoire while staying true to its roots in quality manufacturing and timeless design. The LC8705 GREY/BLACK is a testament to this legacy, blending the brand’s expertise in leather with a contemporary twist on a classic varsity silhouette.

Frequently Asked Questions
The sleeves are made from cowhide leather, known for its durability and slight sheen. It’s a full-grain leather, which means it retains the natural grain and develops a rich patina over time.
The wool body should be professionally dry-cleaned to maintain its shape and texture. The leather sleeves require specialist leather cleaning to preserve their finish and prevent drying or cracking. Avoid exposing the jacket to direct heat or moisture.
Yes, the rib knit is made from a stretchy, elasticated fabric that provides a snug fit while allowing flexibility. It helps retain the jacket’s shape and keeps out the cold.
The wool used is a medium-weight fabric, typically around 400-500 grams per square metre. It offers warmth without being overly bulky, making it suitable for layering across seasons.
While the jacket is designed for all seasons, the wool body and leather sleeves provide moderate insulation. It’s best suited for mild to cool weather; in warmer conditions, it may feel too heavy unless layered over lightweight clothing.
