Anything else
The Blacktop Gear Leather Varsity Bomber is a men's baseball-style jacket in 100% soft black cowhide, with a snap-button front, a ribbed knit collar, cuffs and hem and two slash hand pockets. It is the classic varsity shape done entirely in leather — clean, all-black and minimal. Handmade to order in sizes XS to 6XL from $145, with free delivery within the USA.
Design & Build
This is a varsity jacket without the wool or the letters — the whole thing is soft cowhide, so it reads cleaner and more grown-up than a college jacket while keeping the shape. A ribbed knit collar, cuffs and hem frame it and hold warmth; the front closes with snap buttons down a clean placket rather than a zip.
Two slash hand pockets sit at the waist, and the interior is lined. Because it is all one colour with no contrast panels, it works as easily with a suit-adjacent outfit as with jeans.
The shell is 100% soft cowhide — heavier and more hard-wearing than lambskin, but broken in enough to wear every day. This is everyday outerwear with a bit of structure rather than dedicated crash protection.

Who buys this jacket
- People who want a clean leather bomber. All-black soft cowhide with a varsity shape reads sharp without contrast panels or logos.
- Riders who prefer snaps to a zip. The snap-button placket gives it a cleaner, more classic front than a zip bomber.
- Everyday wear. Ribbed collar, cuffs and hem hold warmth and it dresses up or down easily.
How it is worn
Wear it like a bomber — over a tee or a knit with jeans or chinos. All-black means it goes with everything; let the leather and the clean varsity shape carry it. Layer a hoodie underneath in the cold and size up if you plan to.

Frequently asked questions
Is it all leather?
Yes — the whole shell is 100% soft cowhide, including the sleeves. Only the collar, cuffs and hem are ribbed knit.
Does it zip or snap?
It snaps — snap buttons down a clean front placket rather than a zip, for a classic varsity front.
Is the leather soft or stiff?
Soft cowhide — heavier and more hard-wearing than lambskin but broken in enough to wear every day.
Does it have pockets?
Two slash hand pockets at the waist, plus a lined interior.
How does it fit?
A classic bomber fit. Size up if you want it relaxed or plan to layer a hoodie underneath.
Can I ride in it?
It is everyday outerwear with a bit of structure rather than dedicated crash protection. For abrasion-first riding, choose a heavier cowhide riding jacket.
Do you make larger sizes?
XS to 5XL are the standard run; 6XL is made to order to the same pattern, and we can build to your own measurements.
How long does it take?
Made to order in about 2–3 weeks, then shipped free within the USA.
Can I get it in another colour?
Yes. The shell colour, knit-trim colour and lining are open on a custom build — tell us what you want and we quote it first.
Where is it made?
Blacktop Gear is a US brand. Every piece is designed in the USA and handmade in our own factory rather than outsourced to a third-party manufacturer — which is how we control the leather grade and the stitching on every order. Delivery within the USA is free.
Make it your own
This bomber can be built to your spec — a different shell or knit-trim colour, a zip instead of snaps, or your own measurements if you fall between sizes, all at no design charge for standard sizing. Start your build on our custom leather gear page.
