Your Sleeves Tell the Story

Every varsity jacket is a little different—but the ones people remember? They’ve got heart stitched right into the fabric. That’s where sleeve customization comes in. Whether it’s your name, your number, or a tiny symbol that means something only you understand, it’s your way of saying: this jacket is mine.

Your Name, Front and Center (or Side)

There’s something powerful about putting your name on your sleeve. It might be small, but it speaks loud. Whether it’s your first name in smooth cursive or your last name in bold block letters, it’s a little reminder of who you are and how far you’ve come. And it looks great—simple as that.

A Number That Means Something

Your jersey number? That’s not just a digit. It’s your spot on the team, your favorite lucky number, or maybe the one you’ve carried since your first game. Adding it to your sleeve gives your jacket that official, athletic feel—but more importantly, it makes it personal. It connects the jacket to your journey.

A Symbol with Soul

Maybe it’s your school mascot. Maybe it’s a star, a crown, a music note—or just something that means something to you. Whatever it is, adding a small symbol to your sleeve gives your jacket character. It doesn’t need to be big to make a statement. Sometimes the smallest details say the most.

Choose the Right Canvas

Your sleeve material will shape the final look. Leather sleeves make embroidery stand out with a bold, polished vibe. Wool or fabric sleeves offer a softer, classic look—perfect if you’re going for something timeless. No matter which one you choose, your custom elements will shine with the right thread color and placement.

Design It Your Way

Upper sleeve, lower sleeve, front-facing or subtle on the back—there’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to layout. Some go with a name on one arm and number on the other. Others keep it simple with just a symbol. You do what feels right for your story.
