Description
A bold varsity statement where West Coast rock-and-roll spirit meets Italian craftsmanship.
The AMIRI Oversized Stars varsity jacket channels the brand’s signature fusion of subcultural rebellion and luxury tailoring. Drawing from American collegiate heritage, designer Mike Amiri reimagines the classic letterman silhouette with a distinctly oversized, draped fit that nods to vintage athletic wear while embracing a modern, relaxed attitude. The standout star motif embroidered across the front and sleeves is a recurring signature in the AMIRI universe, referencing the celestial iconography that has become synonymous with the label’s rock-star mythology.
Crafted from a substantial wool blend body for warmth and structure, this jacket is balanced by supple leather sleeves that lend an authentic varsity feel. Contrast ribbed trims at the collar, cuffs, and hem keep the silhouette rooted in sporting tradition, while snap-button front closure and welt pockets maintain functional ease. The intentionally relaxed proportions give it a slouchy, thrown-on appeal that reads equally well layered over a vintage tee or a fine knit.

The wool blend body offers structured warmth and a luxurious hand-feel, holding its oversized shape with intention. The leather sleeves provide a tactile contrast and develop a unique patina with wear, while the smooth viscose lining ensures effortless layering over knitwear without bulk.
Styling
