Varsity Blues
Description
Craftsmanship, culture, and art converge in this life-size, hyperrealistic, colored pencil drawing that brings the Roots classic varsity jacket to life. Every intricate detail — from the richness of the navy wool to the softness of the leather sleeves — is carefully recreated, celebrating not just a jacket, but the soul of the brand itself.
Born from the heart of Canada, Roots has long been synonymous with heritage, quality, and the spirit of the Canadian outdoors. This piece honors that legacy, reflecting the brand’s connection to Canada and the rustic charm of cabin life. The jacket, with its vintage-inspired design, evokes memories of fall days spent in the great outdoors, cozy nights by the fire, and nostalgia for times shared with the ones we hold close.
Like my art, this jacket is a true celebration of the artisanal craftsmanship that goes into every Roots piece, a reminder that what’s made with care and passion can last forever.
