What Are Different Types of Jackets Called?

When it comes to custom apparel, jackets are a staple—offering both function and fashion. But with so many styles out there, it can get confusing to know what each type is called and how it’s best used. Whether you're building your brand's outerwear line or designing uniforms for your crew, understanding jacket styles helps you create pieces that are both stylish and purposeful.

Let’s break down the different types of jackets, including the ever-popular Team Track Jackets—a versatile choice for performance, branding, and streetwear appeal.

1. Track Jacket

A lightweight, zip-up jacket originally made for athletes, the track jacket has evolved into a streetwear essential. Our Team Track Jackets are custom-made to balance performance and polish—ideal for school teams, corporate events, or lifestyle collections. Often made with breathable poly-blend fabric, they’re perfect for warm-ups, branding, or layering over uniforms.

2. Bomber Jacket

Also known as a flight jacket, the bomber is defined by its cropped length, fitted waistband and cuffs, and zip front. It's a go-to piece for both casual and smart-casual looks. At CraftClothing, bombers can be customized with high-quality embroidery or screen printing to make your brand stand out.

3. Windbreaker

Designed for lightweight protection against wind and light rain, windbreakers are commonly made from nylon or polyester with a water-resistant coating. They're a great option for activewear lines, outdoor teams, or company giveaways.

4. Coach Jacket

Minimalist and sleek, coach jackets are often made of nylon with snap closures and a slightly boxy fit. They’re ideal for logos or bold prints and work well for both corporate and street-style collections.

5. Varsity Jacket

Also known as a letterman jacket, this iconic style is rooted in American collegiate culture. Varsity jackets feature contrast sleeves (usually leather or faux leather), ribbed cuffs and hems, and custom chenille patches or embroidery. A great choice for school teams, clubs, or throwback-inspired fashion.

6. Parka

A parka is a longer, insulated jacket designed for cold weather. It often includes a hood—sometimes fur-lined—and multiple pockets. Though not as sporty as team jackets, parkas can be customized for premium corporate or winter gear lines.

7. Anorak

Anoraks are pullover-style jackets with a half or quarter zip, often featuring a front pocket and a hood. These are great for lightweight layering and outdoor-focused brands.

8. Denim Jacket

A staple in casual fashion, denim jackets are timeless. While they're not typically used for teamwear, they can be an edgy alternative for branded fashion lines or lifestyle merchandise.
