Buy John Bates Classic Redskins Jacket Created by His Wife Kegan
You’ve kept that old burgundy-and-gold sweatshirt for years, and it’s finally falling apart. But you don’t want a loud jersey either. You want something that remembers the old days without trying too hard. That’s the thought behind the John Bates Classic Redskins Era Jacket.
A Throwback With a Blocker’s Mindset
John Bates, the Commanders’ 6-foot-6 tight end out of Boise State, was a fourth-round pick in 2021 and has built a name as one of the league’s best blocking tight ends. The team went by Washington Redskins until 2020, played as the Washington Football Team, and has been the Commanders since 2022. At Oskar Jacket, we made this John Bates Washington Redskins Jacket as a fan-inspired nod to the classic era,
Warm, Quiet and Built to Last
Wool gives the black a deep, matte look and plenty of warmth. Viscose lining slides over shirts and sweaters, the shirt-style collar keeps the neckline relaxed, and buttoned cuffs hold the sleeves in place. Buttons close the front. Meanwhile, two outside pockets and one inside pocket keep your phone, keys, and tickets close. That’s why this Washington Redskins Classic Era Football Jacket works for tailgates and weekdays alike.
Wear It Like a Fan Who Remembers
A John Bates Washington Redskins Vintage Jacket for Football Fans looks best with simple pieces. Try a burgundy tee, dark jeans, and boots for game day, or a grey knit and black trousers for dinner. Add a gold pin or cap for a classic-colors nod. Wool suits fall and winter best, so skip it in warm weather. Also, follow the care label, and hang the jacket on a wide hanger.
