Just because it’s cold out doesn’t mean you can’t look stylish on game day!

Time to bring out those puffy jackets, beanies, scarves, flannels, and boots, because this post is all about outfit inspiration for fall and winter football games (or any sport really).

Standing outside for several hours on game day means you’ll want to dress warmly, but part of the fun of game day is the fashion!

These outfit ideas are all about combining the comfy and cozy to help you dress warm yet cute at the game.

#1: Sweatshirt & Mom Jeans

The first outfit combo is a school crewneck tucked into mom jeans. If it’s extra cold, layer with a flannel or jacket!

You can also add a belt to your jeans to add an extra little something to your look. Finish the look with a matching beanie or winter hat to show some team pride.

#2: Puffy Coat, Jeans, & Boots

I love the bright red coats these girls are wearing for Georgia game day! To recreate this look, wear a puffy coat, jeans, and boots that match your school colors.

Add some fun game day pins to your coat for a festive and spirited touch! Etsy is by far the best place to find school specific pins.

They come in all different colors with pretty illustrations on them, and are so fun to collect.

#3: Beanie, Crewneck, & Leggings

You can never go wrong with a classic combo of a crewneck, beanie, and leggings. Cute yet still warm and cozy!

For shoes, simple white sneakers or boots if the weather calls for it are the way to go. For some fun accessory ideas, try wearing socks with your team’s colors on them or bead party necklaces.

#4: Layered Jacket & Sweatshirt

Layers, layers, layers! If it’s cold out, layers are what’ll get you through game day. But that doesn’t mean you can’t put together a cute get up for the game.

Layer a jacket over a school sweatshirt and finish the look with sneakers or boots, depending on the weather.

#5: Winter Game Day Chic (Leather!)

There’s a bunch of great outfit inspiration here! If one of your school colors is black, then leather pants will make for a stunning addition to your game day outfit.

They’ve got such a sharp and dressy vibe to them, perfect for special games like homecoming, blackouts, or playoffs. Plus, they’re thick and will help keep you warm!

#6: Long Coat, Scarf, & Beanie

Here’s a great outfit idea for extra cold weather games! For days like that, you’ll definitely want to bundle up.

Long coats that go down to your thigh are the best way to go and will help you stay warm.

I live in Upstate New York so (unfortunately) I’m very familiar with dressing for extreme winter weather!

If your coat doesn’t match your team colors, you can still incorporate those colors in other parts of your outfit like scarves, gloves, and hats.

#7: Leggings & Boots

Nothing says cool weather like leggings and boots. Pair this combo with a comfy school sweatshirt, jersey, or jacket to wear on game day.

I’m also loving the fuzzy bucket hat the girl second from the right is wearing. Bucket hats are a super fun accessory for games and a great way to keep warm, too.

#8: Cute, Comfy, & Cozy

I’m loving the comfy, athleisure inspired looks in this next inspo photo. Use a combination of leggings, sneakers, crewnecks, hoodies, and sweatpants in school colors to craft your perfect casual ensemble.

Add some fun fall/winter vibes with beanies and scarves, or layer with a puffy jacket or vest!

#9: Flannel, Leggings, & Beanies

Flannels and colored leggings are such a fun and festive combination! Pair your leggings with Converse, other sneakers, or boots if it’s snowing.

Under your flannel, try wearing a simple t-shirt, crewneck, or even a hoodie.

A hoodie/flannel/leggings/Converse combo is a super cute outfit idea I’ll definitely be sporting this season.

Don’t forget some fun school stickers or face paint, too! I love doing face and body decor like this for some extra spirit.

#10: Layered Vests & Sweatshirts

I’ll close out with a fun, wintery Penn State inspired look. I’m getting ski resort vibes from these outfits, but I’m totally here for it.

To recreate this outfit, layer a puffy vest over a sweatshirt or a hoodie. Complete the look with a thick, cozy beanie and jeans!

Bonus Idea: Style A Leather Jacket!

For an extra chic look that’ll still keep you nice and warm on game day, a leather jacket is a must! Where to find quality leather jackets that won’t cost you an arm and a leg?

Let me introduce you to The Jacket Maker, who specialize in handmade, 100% custom leather jackets.

TJM is direct-to-consumer, which means the middlemen who would typically do all the distributing, wholesaling, and retailing aren’t apart of the process at all.

The best part is that you, the consumer, get to enjoy quality pieces at a fraction of the cost!

The Jacket Maker has so many beautiful options for game day, but my top pick from them has to be this black leather jacket for women.

This piece offers a gorgeous look that’ll go seamlessly with any outfit thanks to its classic black tone.

And this jacket is just one beautiful option - be sure to go explore the rest to find the perfect addition to your game day look!

Outro & Closing Thoughts

Cold weather game day fashion definitely presents a challenge. We can’t just throw on a cute skirt and tube top and call it a day anymore - it’s too cold!

But layers, beanies, hoodies, and leggings have their own unique style that’s fun to play around with while cheering on our team during fall and winter.

Hopefully this post gave you some inspiration on how to do just that!
