Vintage Lacoste Snap-Zip varsity-style jacket [L]
Dhs. 180.00
"Excellent vintage pre-owned condition. This rare vintage Chemise Lacoste varsity jacket has been exceptionally well-preserved. The camel tan body and forest green sleeves remain vibrant and free from pilling, rips, or holes. All striped rib-knit trim retains excellent elastic shape, and the signature metallic snaps are fully functional. The interior off-white lining shows minor, light vintage storage aging consistent with its age, but remains completely clean and structurally sound. A beautiful, high-quality collector's piece that arrives ready to wear."
- Design: A visually striking varsity-style bomber jacket featuring a classic two-tone color-blocked pattern, composed of a solid camel tan wool-like body paired with contrasting deep forest green sleeves. The retro collegiate aesthetic is grounded by heavy-gauge striped ribbed accents along the low-profile bomber collar, wrist cuffs, and elastic waistband, featuring bands of forest green, deep purple, and black. The left chest is detailed with a vintage, circular embroidered "Lacoste Club" crest framing the iconic green crocodile logo. The front facade features a clean, hidden snap-button closure track detailed with exposed silver metallic branded snap buttons at the top and bottom collar lines, while the lower torso houses two diagonal, welted hand pockets cleanly integrated into the seams.
- Fit & Build: Engineered for a relaxed, classic athletic fit with comfortable drop shoulders, the jacket features a full-snap center closure that fastens into a supportive ribbed neckline. Heavy-gauge ribbed knit bands at the waistband and wrists provide a supportive, draft-blocking build that effectively keeps its structure over time. The interior features a comfortable, off-white cloth liner, housing a highly collectible vintage "Chemise Lacoste" neck tag with the iconic green crocodile logo indicating a vintage size 16 to fit 100 cm.

Material: Expertly constructed from a heavy-weight, durable knit body fabric with a dense, wool-like face that offers exceptional structure and warmth. The sleeves are tailored from a smooth, robust sportswear twill fabric designed for long-lasting wear. The garment is detailed with premium metallic snap hardware, a soft cotton-blend internal lining, and industrial-strength elastic ribbing engineered to maintain its retention over time.
