Leopard Color Block Hooded Teddy Jacket | Caramel / S 100100599780516

Overview

Make a bold, cozy statement with this hooded teddy jacket that mixes a plush faux-shearling pile with graphic color-block panels and a striking leopard accent. It’s built to be an outer layer you reach for all season when you want instant warmth plus street-ready style — comfortable over tees and knitwear, eye-catching over a simple dress, and easy to mix into an athleisure rotation.

Fabric & Materials — What you should know

The jacket is constructed from a synthetic teddy fleece — the soft, raised “pile” that mimics traditional shearling. This family of fabrics is typically polyester-based, engineered to deliver a soft hand, quick-drying performance and long-lasting loft without the weight of natural shearling.

Quick material notes:

• Polyester fibers form the plush pile and backing — durable, low-wrinkle and color-retaining for printed motifs like leopard.
• Teddy fleece reproduces the warm, insulating qualities of shearling while remaining lighter and easier to care for.
• Because it’s synthetic, it avoids animal-derived fibers and is often more affordable than genuine shearling or wool alternatives.

Fabric Advantages — Pros

• Very warm relative to its weight — excellent insulating loft that traps heat.
• Soft, comfortable surface that stays cozy against the skin.
• Durable and abrasion-resistant — holds up well to regular wear and transit.
• Colors and prints (like leopard) stay vibrant because synthetic fibers accept modern dye and print processes well.
• Easy-care compared with natural shearling: can usually be machine-washed on gentle settings and dries quickly.

Fabric Considerations — Cons

• Lower breathability than many natural fibers — can feel warm for extended indoor wear.
• May generate static and attract lint or pet hair more than cotton or wool.
• Over time, heavy friction can cause pilling; some shedding may be noticeable the first few wears.
• Traditional polyester is petroleum-derived; if sustainability is a priority, look for items made with recycled polyester.
• Sensitive to high heat — ironing or hot dryer cycles can damage the pile.

Fit Notes & How to Choose Your Size

Teddy jackets are commonly cut with a relaxed, slightly boxy silhouette to allow layering. To pick the best size:

1. Decide how you want to wear it: close-fitting over thin tops, or roomy for bulky knits.
2. If you prefer a tailored look, choose a size that gives about 1–2 inches (2.5–5 cm) of ease across the chest compared to your body measurement.
3. For comfortable layering with sweaters, aim for 3–5 inches (7–13 cm) of ease; for an oversized streetwear silhouette, 6+ inches (15+ cm) of ease works well.
4. If you are between sizes, size up for more room or down if you want a snugger profile; consider sleeve length and shoulder slope relative to your build.

How to Measure — Body and Garment

Measure your body

• Bust/Chest: Wrap a soft tape measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape horizontal and relaxed.
• Shoulder width: Measure from the outer edge of one shoulder to the other across the back where the seams would sit.
• Sleeve length: From the outer shoulder point down to the wrist with the arm slightly bent.
• Back/Body length: From the prominent bone at the base of your neck straight down to where you want the jacket hem to land.
• Measure over a thin layer (a t-shirt) for the most useful reference when choosing outerwear size.

Measure the garment (if you have it laid flat)

• Chest/Garment width: Lay the jacket flat and measure straight across 1–2 inches below the armhole; double that number to get the full circumference.
• Shoulder: Measure from seam to seam across the back.
• Sleeve: From the shoulder seam to the cuff along the outer edge.
• Length: From the top of the back (just below the collar) to the hem.

Model & Visual Fit Guidance

If the product page includes model height and sample size, use that information to judge how the jacket will sit on you. Models typically wear a standard sample size; compare your body measurements to the garment measurements shown on the product page to estimate where the hem and sleeves will fall. If model data is not listed, assume a mid-hip placement on average-height figures — always match bust/chest and desired ease first.

Color, Pattern & Styling Notes

The leopard-block design turns this jacket into a focal point. When styling:

• Let the jacket take center stage — keep the base layers neutral (black, white, cream, denim, or camel) for a balanced look.
• Pick one hue from the color-block panels and repeat it in accessories (knit hat, scarf, or bag) to create cohesion.
• For an elevated casual outfit: streamlined jeans or leather-look leggings + ankle boots.
• For sporty vibes: joggers or straight-leg denim + crisp sneakers and a crossbody bag.
• Contrast textures: pair the plush pile with smooth leather or polished denim to add structure.

Style & Occasion

This jacket blends casual cool with tactile comfort — ideal for weekend errands, city walks, travel days and relaxed evenings. It works equally well with athleisure, everyday denim, or as a textured contrast to a simple midi dress for an unexpected street-style update.

Seasonal Use

Best suited to autumn, mild winter and cool spring conditions. It performs well as a mid-layer in colder climates or as an outer layer in moderate cold. Avoid heavy rain or prolonged wet weather — synthetic pile can retain moisture and take longer to dry when thoroughly soaked.

Care Tips & Fit Reminders

• Wash gently: use cold water and a gentle cycle or hand wash to protect the pile.
• Avoid hot dryers — high heat can flatten or melt the fibers. A short, low-heat fluff in the dryer helps restore loft; otherwise air-dry flat and gently reshape.
• Close fastenings and turn the jacket inside out before washing to reduce surface abrasion.
• Use mild detergents; skip bleach and strong optical brighteners which can affect prints.
• Expect minor initial shedding — brush or shake out loose fibers; a fabric comb or sweater shaver can remove pills after wear.

Care Guide — Keep it looking lovely longer

1. Spot-clean small marks with a damp cloth and a tiny amount of mild soap; blot rather than rub.
2. For a full wash: close any closures, turn the garment inside out and select a cold, delicate cycle. Use a laundry bag if available.
3. Gently shake the jacket after washing to redistribute the pile; reshape while damp.
4. Prefer air drying on a flat surface away from direct heat; if you use a dryer, tumble on the lowest setting for short bursts to revive loft.
5. Store on a wide hanger in a cool, dry place — avoid cramped spaces that crush the pile. Use a breathable garment bag for long-term storage.
6. To reduce pilling, avoid rough friction from heavy backpacks or abrasive surfaces; treat existing pills with a fabric comb or de-piller.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Is this jacket warm enough for winter?

A: It provides substantial warmth for cool to moderately cold weather and is excellent for layering. In very cold climates you’ll likely want a heavier technical coat or a down layer on top for extended outdoor exposure.

Q: Will the leopard print fade after washing?

A: Modern printing on synthetic fibers is generally stable if washed properly. Use cold water, gentle detergent and avoid excessive heat to keep prints vibrant.

Q: Does the jacket shed or pill?

A: Some initial loose fibers are normal with plush pile fabrics. With regular wear you may see minor pilling in high-friction areas; this can be managed with a pill remover or fabric comb.

Q: How do I know if it will fit me?

A: Use the measuring guidance above: measure your chest and compare it to the garment measurements listed on the product page. Allow extra ease for layering according to your preferred fit (see Fit Notes).

Q: Are there pockets / what kind of closure does it have?

A: Details such as pocket type and closure are typically shown in close-up images and the product specification table on the item page. Check those visuals to confirm pocket placement and fastening style before purchasing.

Q: Is polyester safe for sensitive skin?

A: Most people tolerate synthetic fleece well, but if you have highly sensitive skin, try wearing a thin cotton layer underneath the jacket the first few times to test for any irritation.

Style Tips — Outfit ideas

• Weekend Errands: Basic tee + high-rise jeans + white sneakers. Keep accessories minimal so the jacket remains the focal point.
• Casual Night Out: Fitted black denim or faux leather leggings + ankle boots + a slim knit top for contrast against the plush texture.
• Travel Ready: Layer over a long-sleeve tee and a lightweight hoodie; add slip-on sneakers and a crossbody bag for easy security checks and comfort.
• Effortless Office Casual: Wear over a monochrome sweater dress with knee boots — the jacket adds personality without over-dressing.
• Layering Play: Pair with a longer coat if you want extra protection from wind or rain — the color block will peek out and add visual interest when unbuttoned or unzipped.
